No wonder in the mock draft they were saying that the chargers need another RB. I wish we would have kept him but hey i forgot what they offered him but he signed for 6yrs for some good change.


Also if you go to nfl.com and look at the free agents list, there's going to be some upstet people and teams in the NFL. next season is goin to be crazy! The Pats lost both of their best corners, Asante Samuel to the Eagles and Randall Gay to the Saints. what else is next?

Now that the Atlanta Falcons have guaranteed running back Michael "Burner" Turner $15 million, fans might want to know a little more about him.

In anticipation of the signing, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution talked to some of the folks who've studied Turner over the past few years. The common theme is that his power is just as impressive, if not more so, than his speed.

The Falcons are not getting a finesse back in Turner, who loses his low center of gravity to his advantage when breaking tackles. Interesting that longtime San Diego Union-Tribune columnist Nick Canepa thought that Turner wasn't used properly in San Diego. Unfortunately, it may have taken the Chargers too long to realize what they had. I still think they erred by not at least getting something of value for Turner before last year's draft.
Kinda knew this was gonna happen. He runs too good to not be starting, and someone was bound to throw him the coin he deserved.

everyone seen this coming actually so it wasnt that big of a deal to me. my hopes is we get cromartie in the draft and try to get Lito in a trade. and pray Moss stays with us, i heard on ESPN that he was working out a deal but then on the internet hearing him wanting to reunite with culpepper so i dunno. all i know is we go far with much less talent before hopefully we can get some pieces we need and bang this season out/

norwood isnt durable enough to be an everydown back. this is a good move. we have a nice backfield with mughelli norwood and turner. hopefully we trade that 3rd pick for more draft picks and shore up that offensive line.
