What the fuck. Meltdown city in Indy

not enough talk about how bad Scott Turner is.
No point in having a comparison on anything with him calling plays.

Turner doesn't know how to game plan.
A good OC would script plays to see what the defense is going to do in certain looks then attack from there. Unfortunately, it takes Turner 5 drives to get to the first 20 plays and the half is over.

Well if we would fire Rivera I would welcome Reich here
Edit,nevermind,some of his decisions are baffling

It's so bad -- during a recent game I was watching with my wife, and I accurately predicted probably 80% of the plays just before the ball was snapped. And I don't know shit about football. So if I can figure it out, opposing defenses and D coordinators must be able to sniff things out far easier and earlier. Turner doesn't seem to adjust either -- he is missing the "ain't" in the aphorism, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

I dont know ... I like scott turner more than I dont like him. We didnt like oconnell, jay gruden, kyle shanahan either.

I think being the OC of this team with the QBs weve had ... youre always handicapped. You are always compromising your playcalls and then when you do make a good call but the QB doesnt see and throw it .. we blame the playcall bc we cant tell from the TV feed whats happening down field.

I dont think half the OCs in the league could do what he did last year with Heinike.

Youre in nascar race but they give you the pinto.

"experts" who dissect the 22 give him credit as a play designer and caller.

All good points. It's easy to blame Turner (and I have), but in reality with the QBs he has been given and the carousel of offensive linemen in front of these QBs, it must be quite the task to develop a game plan against a competent defense.

What's his excuse this year since everyone is healthy and who are these experts? I need to see an article.

Turner's O is second to last in points (6pts ave)in the first half of games this year and dead last since he's been our OC.
The team is 29th in points per play ave.

THere's no meaningful offensive stat where the team is top 15.

Heinicke looks good slinging it while down two touchdowns, glitter titties.

Let’s be real .. We all watch the games and bash Taylor ..even his Big plays seem to be lucky .. so if he is as bad as WE all say he is pray tell how any OC can find success with him .. you can’t hide his flaws but for so long and even with a great D performance we could not overcome Taylor ..

Wait? Who didn't like O'Connell or Shannahan? I actually thought they were pretty innovative with our offense given the limitations of personnel.

No one would dispute that our QB situation is bad, but it seems like there's far too little done to adjust to the strengths and weaknesses. TH doesn't have a big arm -- so don't have him flutter stuff deep (we've been bailed out by Terry and Curtis, but it's not something we should be scheming to do). Also, 7 step drops seem like a bad idea because he doesn't need to time to uncork a bomb. Also, his decision-making isn't great -- so get the ball out quickly to the first read or maybe the second. After that, we're in trouble anyway. TH can move -- so get him out of the pocket and throwing on the move. Admittedly, I do not know squat about football, but there are plenty of people that do (per reporting by Keim, Finley, etc.) who are talking about these kinds of adjustments to what we're doing.

Scott Turner is an OC because of his father. He has zero business in the NFL. He is absolutely clueless. I can’t even believe it is a conversation.
