one of the fullbacks (coleman imo) if C-mike showed capability on KR's

Patience is all because I have a bad feeling that Lynch is right at his downward spiral and next year will be much like the Watters/Alexander transition concerning Lynch/Michael. I hope I'm wrong but I am not confident about that.chris98251":7yxd8q7p said:I think the board is more up in the air about not seeing him akin to having a Muscle car in the garage that dad won't let you drive because your not mature enough or responsible enough to handle it yet.
It's there and just collecting dust in our minds, but dad has his reasons and is probably right.

I don't think it's an issue of him not being good enough. They just want to ease him in.

Every time I get to see Michael in action I am a bit WOWed, every time I get to see Turbin my reaction goes from yawn to 'meh' and in last game. There must be something we dont know, always compete does not seem to apply here.
We are way beyond expecting any rookie getting playing time on this team. Let alone some second rounder with issues coming into a loaded position group. He literally is a player expected to contribute in 2014-15 because he's a first rounder that dropped because of injury and other issues.bigcc":1oxetbgp said:KCHawkGirl":1oxetbgp said:The impatience on this board is galling sometimes.

funny there's a bunch of other rookies who seem to be doing fine, and turbin himself was a rookie last year.
Wasn't the whole idea of us trading for Percy to WIN NOW????? Why draft a RB whose gonna be sitting on the shelf with your 2nd round pick if that's your mindset???
The dude is either in the doghouse (could be for good reason, but pass blocking alone I find extremely hard to believe is the cause), or he should at least get a couple looks here and there.
I'm not calling for him to replace turbin as the 2, im calling him as an occasional change of pace back, with an opportunity at KR (he has the tools, why not let him try?)

Where do you get this conclusion? They lost this last week and yes it sucks. But they're 12-3 and 10 point plus favorites at home.
I have no doubt we will win this Sunday. Who ever they have back there returning kicks. I think the Seahawks are pretty good.
