Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Turner is in his second season with the Colts and he has NFL experience with quarterbacks. He served as the Chicago Bears’ offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach from 1993-96 and offensive coordinator from 2005-09. Turner, 57, is in his 35th year of coaching and is the brother of Norv Turner, San Diego Chargers head coach. Reich, 49, has five seasons of coaching experience, all with the Colts, none with wide receivers. ... As Profootballtalk.com's Mike Florio suggested, the move surely didn’t happen without Peyton Manning’s input and/or insistence. The fact that it’s coming on the heels of the
application of the franchise tag suggests that the Colts are trying hard to ensure that Manning will be happy.
