YoloinOhio Posted March 19, 2021 Author Posted March 19, 2021 Well he’s the only one who actually made a play in the AFCCG, I’ll give him that
Rocket94 Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 I still remember a touchdown pass that he dropped...right on the numbers! 1
Dr.Sack Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 Only loss I think we will regret is losing our punter.

Remember we he tried to return a fumbled punt w no helmet on running it out of the end zone and got creamed in the face and head? LOL Lots of blood and he was dazed. But still was able to get off the field. Anyone have the footage of that from a few years back? Game was at the Ralph. Home opener. I was sitting in that end zone 25 rows up. Saw it happen. Even worse, heard it happen. Like a car crash you see is about to happen but you can’t stop it. SCARY is an understatement. Thank God he got up.

He is a special teamer. The RB designation is simply because they still don't recognise special teamer as a position 21 minutes ago, Locomark said: Yawn. A waste of a RB spot. He isn't taking an RB spot. It's a special teamer spot, which could be filled with any type of position. 1
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 What makes him a good special teamer? I feel like he's not very good at tracking the ball and keeping it out of the endzone.

It’s like the 2 point defense, noticeably bad in a very specific area.

I know that is not his primary position for this team, but it is a spot that he takes on the active roster. I respect McDermott's emphasis for having a strong Special Teams unit, yet I don't think that re-signing Jones is necessary. Let's stick with the players we currently have on the roster. Tyler Matakevich, Daryl Johnson, Siran Neal & Jaquon Johnson are all very good special teams players, let's stick with what we have, and use our money for a different position.

Neal lines up at the same position, gunner, for which a team typically needs 2 guys at any one time. I'm sure you understand all that, yet you list these guys as if they're interchangeable.

So he could be a WR, LB or CB and it wouldn't make any difference. They arent planning for him for his position on offense or defense. He is serving as a special teamer. He should be alongside Bass, Ferguson and Haack as a specialist. He is unlike say Hyde, who does special teams as a compliment to his role on defense Edited March 19, 2021 by Mountain Man

My point is that they could let some of their other players already on the roster have a shot at special teams.
