Yeah, I'm not too worried.  Health is (as always) the biggest concern.
Benson can carry the load as long as his head's on straight.  Honestly as
long as Benson has something to prove, I think he'll be fine.  We'll see.

I don't think we're in danger of being stuck with a Shoop offense.  Turner's
not perfect by any stretch but at least the offense is coordinated.

It's really easy to sit and look at a game from the couch and criticize.
Hell, I do it constantly.  But I do try to remember that it's tough to be in
the middle of things making decisions every minute.  I don't think you see
things nearly as clearly and it must increase the difficulty of calling
plays an awful lot.  I'm inclined to cut him a little slack.

No matter what you say about Turner at least he's a real pro offensive
coordinator who has some clue about what he's doing.  He'll never be John
Shoop.  Could the Bears do better?  Maybe.  But we all know that they could
do a hell of a lot worse.
