Fred Jackson is not, never has been nor never will be even a good, let alone incredible 3rd down option. Have you not been watching the past couple of years? How many times does he need to get stuffed behind the line of scrimmage in short yardage situations before people stop saying that he is a good 3rd down back. He is not. The best use of Fred is on early downs, but definitely not on 3rd down. He is too slow and more often than not he fails to get the first down when he has been given the opportunity. I love FJ's heart, but unless he's blocking, he belongs on the bench on 3rd downs.
