Just saw a spot on NFL Networks called "Moments of Insanity" or something like that. Of course, the Turley helmet toss was on there. But they did 15 minutes on Kyle. What was amazing was how well everyone talked about him. Fontenot praised him. A number of NFL coaches and Peter King (which then made me rethink everything b/c that guy is a clown) all said he is a top flight NFL tackle. Even AB was on there talking about feeling good knowing that Turley had his back. That Turley got the team psyched up. They talked about the Rams come-from-behind win in '02 right before the loss to the Jets. How Turley went nuts in the locker room and got everyone pumped up and how it helped propel the team to victory.

Now Turley has taken a number of shots on this board, and while his play is less than stellar right now, he was a darn good tackle here. In '02 he was UNANIMOUSLY voted to the Pro Bowl by the coaches, but didn't go b/c he didn't receive any player votes. He was hated by opposing players. I LOVE that. He was mean, nasty, willing to protect his teammates at any cost, and an emotional leader. I miss him, especially considering our current tackles.
