    Michael Turner rushed for 220 yards.

    looks like the Texans missed out we shouldve gone after him in the off season.

    Any thoughts???

    Awesome game for Turner, but we'll see how he does now that teams know he's coming.

    I doubt he'll have a game like he did today again any time soon.

    Matt Ryan played good, too. Good for them. Maybe they can get out from Michael Vick's shadow sooner rather than later.

    Yup, took him in the 8th round of my draft lol. Probably something the Texans couldve used today. But the Pittsburgh defense was stifling.

    Please don't tell me that "the Texans missed out on [insert weekly top player's name here]" every time this happens, a'la "Should we go after this guy?" threads in the GARM after the Rockets lose to a sucky team and such guy scores a lot.

    I have this guy and Peterson on a fantasy league. :rolleyes: Yeah, I made a big mistake. :(

    Good news: I have Michael Turner and Willie Parker on my fantasy team. Bad news: My team has peaked in week 1.

    I could probably run for at least a buck twenty on the pathetic Lions D and so could you.

    You think Michael Turner could have rushed for 220 yards playing with no offensive line?

    Steve Slaton and Ahman Green couldn't.

    Would have been a monstrous day for me if Brady had played

    He looks very impressive but to be honest I expected it. Maybe not 220 yards but I think it was pretty much general knowledge that this dude was awesome -- just was stuck behind LT.

    One game isn't a season. Get back to me after 5-6 games of over 100 yards per game.

    man, you have to be excited. i don't know if your division will be tough or not....but clearly the falcons are a very, very improved team. and it looks like you have a QB.

    Yeah I'm very excited I did expect us to beat the Lions I expect us to fall down a big going against that Tampa Defense. Our Offense looks like it could be a force to be reckon with but I'm concerned about our defense, but The Lions are a great offensive team.

    I still think we will go 6-10, we are young and we will have our ups and downs.

    I cant help but wonder how he would do in the texans zone blocking system...
    i think he would do great with his combination of speed n power
