We have attempted the wideout screen to Turner. Threw it over his head last week. Not an easy throw to make especially on our field with the 10' crown! Tried the middle screen to Turner in the Woo game...incomplete. Takes a QB with some poise and experience to pull that off. Our guy is getting better each week so you never know, but just because it is in the play book does not mean it is a good play to call. It is all based on what the defense is doing. Turner is a great athlete. Brenner is great athlete. So is Rice, Priman, Monheim, Simpson. These guys are all above average at the least when it comes to athleticism. We try to get all of them ball.
"10' crown???!" Isn't that more like a hill, you can't see the other side of the field with a crown that high!
Perhaps the coaches should be more versatile in devising plays and schemes to get the ball to Turner, after all, there were what, 5-7 attempts to put the ball in his hands and 3 of those resulted in a score wherein he either outran his defender/s or ran the ball extremely well with some nice moves, i.e. cuts/jukes...
