SuperKillerRobots Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Personally, I'd be happy to never again see a pass to the fullback in the flat. Amen to that man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zulu Cthulhu Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Exactly (sort of). If we had a good fullback we would use him and he'd be just as much of an asset as a good tight end (see McClain, LeRon). Amen. And there aren't many good available fullbacks left out there in today's NFL. There weren't many available last year either, when Turk unveiled his "return to the true fullback" strategy. It is a dying position, in the college game as well. That is why I question Turk's readiness for this job; I don't view him as "mature" or "flexible" lurker for abandoning his position; it looks like amateur hour. You want to party like it's 1999 with Sam Gash? Fine, then you go to your organization and tell them to make a play for one of few capable fullbacks left in the NFL. You don't hit the road with some dumpster-diver. It is short-sighted. The whole experiment just smacks of Turk's desire to do or say anything to differentiate himself from the previous unpopular coordinator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
