who would have thought that through 11 games, the former backup would be better than the superstar?
Mike Turner vs. LDT, head to head:
Rushing Yards: 1,088 to 770
Rush Avg. 4.3 to 3.8
Longest Run: 66 to 41
TDs: 13 to 6 (1 receiving)
Rushing 1st Downs: 56 to 35
Total Points: 78 to 36
the only advantage LDT has right now is receiving yards and other reception-related stats, but that has been Tomlinson's trademark anyway as an all-around back. granted, he's had nagging injuries but perhaps San Diego would not be 4-7 if they kept Turner to, in turn, save Tomlinson for the playoffs.
as it is, Turner, along with potential Rookie of the Year Matt Ryan, is making Atlanta forget Michael Vick and leading the Falcons' charge into the postseason.
gametime: 4.05 PM EST @ QualComm Stadium
