If not we can't put him on the field.
crazy because Jenkins can't tackle yet he seems to find the field.

theogt;2502355 said:Yes, when you include Patrick's fair catches in, their yardage is almost identical. I did the calculation once and it was within half a yard on their averages.
YoMick;2502399 said:When I heard "career ending" I thought.... wow, ironic.
When I heard "season ending" I though... guess wasnt meant to be.
With that said.... I really didnt believe that he was done. Something just didnt seem conclusive... maybe I am a little hesitant when I hear things in the media.
Givincer;2502236 said:It's crazy how this injury went from career-threatening to season-threatening to one game-threatening.
If he can go, that's great. I love our cornerback group. It's so deep and so young.
DaBoys4Life;2502214 said:It'd be amazing if they averaged in fair catches.....
NextGenBoys;2502114 said:A.) Forget Pac, we dont need him.
B.) Rest Barber, he is not effective, and Choice is performing very well
C.) I hope Holland will be able to go
D.) Same with Hamlin
E.) Romo will play, we all know that.
I guess they didnt listen to WP PC because wade said pac is playing...moronsMrMom;2502416 said:Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones, who suffered a herniated disk in his neck against the Pittsburgh Steelers two weeks ago, returned to practice Wednesday but will not play Saturday against the Baltimore Ravens.
Jones was injured early in the Cowboys' 20-13 loss at Pittsburgh in Week 14. Jones was hurt in the first quarter when he fell on top of his muffed punt, getting caught in a scramble for the loose ball. After several players fell on him, Jones was pulled from the pile awkwardly by a Steelers player. But Jones played the rest of the game.
Coach Wade Phillips said at the time that Jones had a "herniated disk, maybe two"; NFL.com, citing a league source, reported that the injury could threaten Jones' career.
It was Jones' first game back after a six-game suspension, the second time he has been banned by commissioner Roger Goodell for off-field issues.
After starting the first six games for the Cowboys, Jones was suspended by Goodell on Oct. 14, a week after the cornerback got into an alcohol-related scuffle with one of his bodyguards during a private party at an upscale Dallas hotel.
The bodyguard was part of a security detail employed by the team to help keep the player out of trouble.
Goodell initially issued an indefinite suspension that he said would last at least four games. Jones was allowed to return to practice Nov. 24 but wasn't cleared to play until the Pittsburgh game.
Jones missed the entire 2007 season because of multiple incidents while with the Tennessee Titans, who traded him to Dallas during the offseason. Before playing last week, Jones had missed 22 of 28 games since the end of the 2006 season because of suspensions.
Jones had 28 tackles and a team-high 13 pass breakups in his seven games with the Cowboys.

kmd24;2502426 said:Even if you averaged in all Crayton's fair catches, he'd still have a higher average (5.95) than Pacman (4.61), who has zero fair catches. That doesn't factor in all the penalties on Pac's returns, either.
Even without discounting the times that Crayton was sent in specifically to fair catch (twice), Crayton's fair catch percentage (37.5) isn't appreciably different from some notable punt returners such as Chris Carr (39.6), Devin Hester (28.2), Roscoe Parrish (32.2), and Allen Rossum (43.8). That's not suggesting that he's comparable as a returner, just that Crayton isn't calling for an unusual number of fair catches.

Shinywalrus;2502467 said:Considering that we average about 4 more feet per return when we send out Crayton, I'd much rather have the big play potential, personally...especially in a game where offensive points could be at a premium, a 1-in-4 or 1-in-5 chance of a punt returned for a TD is probably a rational level of upside to give up the lower average production.
Clove;2502507 said:I rest no one if they can play and play well. We don't have the luxury of resting anyone that can limp out on that field and play great football. If Pac can go, suit him up and let's get after them.
NextGenBoys;2502114 said:A.) Forget Pac, we dont need him.
AbeBeta;2502568 said:Right.
Let's see. Adam Jones or Alan Ball playing for us at CB.
Simply about getting the best players on the field. Jones came back and played very well at CB. We need that.
theogt;2502269 said:I was kinda surprised at how good he was at corner for such a long layoff.
Idgit;2502335 said:Can't stand Pac. Wish we didn't need him. But he's another CB who can play tight press coverage. He frees up Henry to play more Safety, he might be our best tackler in the secondary, and he's been inches from breaking open a game with a pick/return on a couple of occasions. We could really use him this week.
