Not sure what turbins done to make folks want Michael in so bad instead of Turbin? evertime i see him in the game, he having a huge run only to be called back... I like Michael as much as the next guy, and i think he'll be the better more explosive of the two , but at the same time, he was just a rookie and was still soaking in the offense. Give him some time i think once Marshawn is done, you'll see Michael starting and turbin as the back up, 3rd down back. Just a guess though.
Michael just has a higher upside then Turbin. During the preseason, it was more fun to watch Michael get carries then Turbin.
So that's your reasoning? Michael was more fun to watch than Turbin?
Now not sure about you, but my opinion is that Pete Carroll is a VERY good football coach, what with winning multiple national championships and now a Superbowl............and one of the few coaches that means it when he says "win your competition battles, and you'll play."
Therefore logic would dictate that if Michael was better than Turbin in all facets of being a running back (running, blocking, pass protection, work ethic, study habits, film room, etc. etc. he WOULD be ahead of Turbin. So the reason he's not is because he is indeed not ready to be ahead of Turbin.
This isn't about who's "more fun to watch," this is about who's a more complete back each and every week before Sundays.
