Scott Turner Fired

[MTK]

Can't say Turner didn't deserve the boot, but 8 different starting QB's in 3 years? Hard to say that's really a fair shake. The QB mess is on Ron, but Turner takes the fall.

Yeah and neither of those 8 were legit QB1's LOL. It's not easy winning football games with below AVG QB play. I hope they bring in a young mind that has a balanced attack like they do in Philly , SF , Cincy Etc

What young dynamic offensive mind would want to come here and work for Dinosaur Ron? Unfortunately with the ownership situation we are stuck with Ron and whatever friend he brings in to be an OC. Next year is a lame duck year for Ron and his staff.

If he replaces Turner with Ken Zampese it’s gonna be extremely disappointing

I honestly don't care who he hires, as long as that new OC adjust to the team that we have, focuses on running the ball, and potentially growing Howell (if they go with him).

I wouldn't mind if Ron went after someone in McDermott's staff in Buffalo.

idk man .. we were 4th in run attempts this year, 10th last year

Id rather be a modern spread offense but you need a capable QB

Until you have a capable QB, we need an OC that can adapt to what we have. And the more I think about it, it is not just about running more, but being strategic about when you run.

For instance, if your RB is getting over 5-yards per carry, you shouldn't be calling 3 straight passes inside the 5 yard line.

You know the old saying, if you have 8 qb's you have no qb's. Ron dug his own grave on this one.

100% correct. I also wonder how much Ron's 1985 offensive philosophy wouldn't allow Turner to do what he really wanted.
