[CBFF] 52 passes?

[Jerry Madsen]

52 passes?  Ron Turner has lost his f***ing mind.  52 passes?  What is that?

Frankly, I don't give a tinker's damn what anybody on this list thinks: 
Cedric Benson is an upper tier running talent and with him back there, 
there is no reason to be passing 52 times in a game.

I was genuinely pleased when Ron Turner was hired back to the Bears.  
All I could think about was a return to the success they achieved on 
offense in 1995.  So much for that thought.

2007 is not a good year for the Turner brothers.
