Twitter: Jerry Jones seeks out Taco Charlton in locker room

[xwalker]

Jerry was more critical of Taco in a pre-game interview than I expected.

Jerry said "You would like for him to have a full repertoire of pass rush moves but he does NOT have that".

Jerry did say he has length and has been better recently.

That might not seem very critical, but Jerry generally just praises players.

 

[xwalker]

Well, he did have a bad shoulder a good part of last year. But playing hurt is a part of being in the NFL.

I personally think Dorance Armstrong has more long term upside than Charlton, but if Taco breaks out this d-line will be unstoppable.

I don't see Armstong as having more pure physical ability, but they obviously have much different mental makeups.

i wonder if he is that type of player that only plays according to his motivation.
i found it bizarre that he was talking more about his agent, than his coaches in post niners game interview
maybe all the bust talk has gotten to him, and he is seeping out more effort.

Do you know who interviewed him?

I would like to hear what he had to say.

pretty low bar when he has to be praised for last night's performance

 

[CowboyRoy]

Why would he do that? Taco has been horrid once again.

That's where we are at though.

These guys know what type of make up and what type of player he is. Thus far he's been dogged for most of his career by everyone. Who knows how he responds to positivity.

 

[CowboyRoy]

I said it before and I'll say it again.

Taco is going to surprise some people this year.

Taco is horrible. I would be willing to bet anything he doesn't surprise this year. And what is a surprise for Taco? Is 4 sacks a surprise or are you talking 10 sacks?

Its called bad reporting. So the ONLY reason Jerry came down was to talk to Taco? Unlikely.

What do you mean? You think its uncommon for Jerry to hype up a former 1st round pick of his?

 

[Praxit]

Was Taco in the shower?

>>>>>>>>> ....lol.. bwahahaha....

Taco is a nice rotation player. He needs to want to be Relentless to go to another level. He seems to give up from time to time.

I like your style, lets go Taco!

 

[PAPPYDOG]

You folks do know the Rams left 20 of 22 starters in LA and Taco was going up against guys who probably won't be on an NFL roster in 3 weeks, right?

No they refuse to acknowledge reality as this hinders there ultimate goal.......lol....I'm pretty sure you can figure out the rest on your own.

For some nothing he does will be good enough.

I think 6 or more would be a strong season (relatively) and would inspire hope.

 

[bsbellomy]

Did you watch the game last night? He made some plays. Also played well in the first game.

I watched both games. I didn't see anything noteworthy. Any sacks, fumbles, tackles for loss? Anything?

 

[bsbellomy]

He's been about as bad as a player can be. Where the heck tldo you come up with "for some nothing he does will be good enough". That's just a ridiculous statement by you.

 

[OmerV]

He’s been a soft Taco up until this preseason.

A veggie only soft taco. With mild sauce.

He batted down a pass. I’ve also seen a little pressure, but no finishing.

Yes lots if you were paying attention to things other than sacks, fumbles, tackles for loss.
