Jones had a couple of good sticks early on in the game last night. He covered that one receiver and hit him just as he caught it for a short game. That was encouraging. The rest of the night unfortunately you didn't hear his name called and that's not good. Saw a couple of times where he was way out of position. And then there was the highly embarrassing attempt of his at a 1 arm flying tackle of the running back blasting up the middle.
Exactly what I was thinking. For defensive personnel, hearing their name is usually only a good thing when it's a big play.
I agree with you. Peterson played lights out and it seemed that Vandy avoided throwing to his side. Likewise, Jones played fairly well and had a couple nice open-field tackles
Good for a conerback...not so much for a free safety. But to be honest, they didn't exactly air it out. - Jones looked better...at least looked like he was willing to hit. He wiffed on that one play though. :lol:
Constant, steady improvement will do for another two games. I'm sure if he's still underperforming by then, the coaches may shake some things up. But who knows?
