I agree with the second part but not the first. Also I don't understand why people don't think the Jags can make it far, they must the most underrated team with talent/players.

The Jags are very talented. They need to stay healthy and find consistentcy in the secondary and they could challenge the Colts for the South crown.

Green Bay will not surprise anyone without a breakout season from the O-line and running situation. Not to mention solid contribution from other Rookies. The good news? The news out of TC suggests O-line is looking much improved thus far.

Oh yeah, and would you guess who had another spectacular TC practice this morning? Yep, that third round REACH James Jones. I am very excited about this kid.

Another thing I found interesting was Brandon Jackson has attempted a Passing play during practice the past two days. One a TD to Driver.

Some more good news.... Many are saying Hawk is looking like the best player on the field and even imply he doesn't look like the same guy this year in TC. So far, he's looking like the star we all hoped for.

It's tough to say which of Aaron Rouse's plays stood out more — intercepting Ingle Martin or flattening P.J. Pope.

Either way, the Green Bay Packers' rookie safety was hard to miss Monday afternoon at Clarke Hinkle Field.

Good to hear

TitleTown088 · 07-31-2007, 08:20 PM

Anyone remember this man in college? He was simply amazing. I specifically remember the play at about 3:50, it is easily one of my favorite footballs plays of all time. I'd like to see him line up at WR just a couple times this season after watching this.

he showed glimpses of that last year and he really seems to bring a better work ethic to Green Bay than he had in Oakland

Good to see Jennings and FRANKS doing well tonight.... Brandon still struggling with picking up the blitz, but he had a few nice runs.

People tend forget all the things running backs have to do outside of running the ball. For him to learn how to pick up blitzes it will take time, but as long as he improves each day I think he'll be ready for the beginning of the season

The thing with Jackson is that he's a great receiver so if he can't learn to block well it's going to be difficult to keep him in there during passing downs.

Jones is doing very well so far. http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=641042 Sounds like he good be a legitimate red zone threat.

As terrific as Jennings was from the start through Week 5 a year ago, it's possible that the starting job opposite Donald Driver could be a summer-long battle between Jennings and Jones.

Everyone was skeptical about the pick, many people had him as a late rounder. I'm getting really excited about Jones though. Thompson just continues to prove that he's a genius.

I'll be the first to admit that I was apprehensive with the Pick at first because it was a third rounder, but now I'm not allowed to be happy with Ted for proving me wrong? Perhaps this is the reason I'm not a NFL scout or GM...

Hawk · 08-01-2007, 05:35 PM

I wasn't pleased with the Jones pick either at first, but I guess I should learn that TT is my daddy and I should have faith in his decisions

PACKmanN · 08-01-2007, 07:40 PM

guys NFL Network is showing the packers.
