I was impressed how they all maintained lane integrity, especially Wilber.

Jones is a beast. I don't understand the hate for him just because he doesn't boom punts 60 yards regularly like McBriar did. Different type of punting style. Plus, I think he might be one of the best overall athletes at his position...pretty good tackler.

If we are relying on the Punter to make tackles, our Special Teams aren't very Special.

Yup, that forced Jackson to keep back tracking. Our discipline in addition to Jackson's lack of discipline made that play happen.

did you see #54 or 84,..... to busy celebrating the Cowboys tackle of Jackson to notice the ball was loose on the ground right behind him.....

Special Teams is a mess......better be lucky than good sometimes....so glad Chris Jones was paying attention

Opponents can't stop Chris Jones. They can only hope to contain him.

He was alert enough to see and get on the ball so kudos to him !

Yes. If Wiber gets sucked in on Jackson's initial attempt up the sideline, it could've been a house call.

He's a punter, they give as much as they take. I'm not ready to call a punter underrated yet.

Would be interesting if Jones was the only DC to make the Pro Bowl.

LOL

Bottom of the pile conversations are fascinating. That would be scary as hell if you're a scrawny punter.
