I am so torn on Turbin. I don't know how I should feel about it. He is only in his second year so its hard to be so critical of the guy. He was brought in to back up Lynch, which he does an OK job at. He is a good blocker and a good receiver. He is not a kick returner by any stretch of the imagination. He has not developed into a true starting running back yet. Whether that's a vision thing, or a footwork thing. He just doesn't have the ability to find daylight or to shed tackles. He is a physical specimen, and a truly likable guy, I just want to see more progression from him.
Still perplexed by keeping Michael on the sidelines during a blowout though. Would love to get that guy some more playing time. If for no other reason than to add credence to the next man up mantra. If Lynch goes down we have a pretty significant drop-off at this position and that eventually needs to be addressed. I am missing Leon right now.
