Bright Sport: Julius Jones

[Boyzmamacita]

Another 100 yard game. We need him to stay healthy and keep running like this. It didn't pay off today, but it will in the future. This was a wasted game on so many levels, but we've got a pretty good starting RB.

Very good point, he did a really great job today.

I told people heading into the season Julius Jones would have a big year and so far he's off to a big one.... I'm wondering why they don't throw more screens to him because it would help against the blitz big time!

The screen pass has really worked this season. They should use it more with both Julius and Marion.

Good call out...he had a very nice night.

Your dad tried really hard to catch Sheppard at the end.

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

I know, imagine that as an ending....

he gets the ball and runs it right back the other way for 100

What has happened to the "wiggle" that JJ had his rookie year. No way he should've let that safety bring him down in the open field with all that daylight ahead. I look at those runs he had from the Bears Thanksgiving game and the moves he made in those and wonder, where are those moves?

I'm just happy to see him running hard and picking up yards. He is running through tackles, which isn't something that there was a lot of last year.

There will be NO OPTIMISM or POSITIVE THREADS tonight. You are banished!!!

 

[Muhast]

he ran hard today again. And he didnt run with his head down( thats wat i call it at least when he just runs into the back of the linemen. Its like he didnt even look up). He moved to get more yards, good job julius

oh, i'm excited too. I echo the sentiments expressed in this thread. I'm just curious.

The only bad thing I saw from him was the one early in the third where he seemed to start zig zagging a couple of yards from the first down marker and was stopped a yard or two short. They stopped us after that and the game seemed to shift to their defence.

What were his final numbers?

One of the things that I like about Julius Jones is that when he gets a little bit of a crease and he's hitting it full speed, it's an eight yard run. What frustrates me to no end is Parcells' constant shuffling backs at the wrong time. Why is Marion Barber in the game on 3rd and 2 or 3rd and 1? Why is Barber in the game when we know that Barber runs with his head down and two arms around the ball? I like Barber as a change of pace back, but yesterday was the day you ride Julius with 30 carries.

 

[Galian Beast]

We needed to run about 10-15 times more yesterday.

Parcells runs when we shouldn't, and doesn't run when we should...

 

[CrazyCowboy]

JJ is running really hard on every carry

I was wondering if anybody else noticed that play. JuJo was about to break off a big one, maybe six.
