Jacoby Jones has re-signed with Houston

JJ looked pretty good last season catching a pass from Matt for two points.

if i remember right (not something i'm good at) he had a couple chances at 2 pointers ... both being ugly routes and both undercutting a wide open andre johnson. i think he dropped the first one.

I rewatched the Ravens game a few nights ago. There was one TD, were he jumped like 50" to steel one from AJ.
 
You know how 3rd world countries get t-shirts made for the losing super bowl teams? That's kind of like getting Jacoby Jones instead of Randy Moss!
 
I had to read the entire thread again to make sure i didn't endorse JJ in any way. At least i'm clean.:kingkong:
 
I thought he was a reasonable off season signing based on how few WR were actually available in a reasonable price range. Not looking so good right now and hopefully Mason helps.

He was only guaranteed 3 million, so it's likely he can be cut this year with no cap hit. Low risk, low reward type deal. Works for me.

I can't knock the signing, but Steve Breaston would have been a great pickup in his place.

JJ is not a good football player, but people need to knock this Randy Moss **** off. He is a lazy good for nothing piece of **** cancer. T.o would be WAY better, but he was hurt and is ****ing crazy. Sydney Rice is the main guy they should have went for. ****. RANDY. MOSS!
 
A review of the game tape, specifically the times Jones was targeted, shows some interesting results, including that 13 passes actually were intended for Jones, but two were nullified by penalties on the Raiders.

Three of Matt Schaub's passes were overthrown, including one when he was hit as he was throwing. Two of Schaub's passes were tipped at the line of scrimmage. Three passes were underthrown. Another was low and would have taken a great catch.

"Like I told you, he ran some damn good routes where, if the ball didn't get tipped or hit, he would've came away from the game with five or six catches for another 70, 80 yards," coach Gary Kubiak said.

That's pretty much what I counted. There was also of course, the one that he caught, the one that went through his hands as Jacoby stretched out on the slant (I think this was one where Matt was hit) & the one with the double move where his route was in question (this was the only one Baldinger could find to put on Playbook), those were on Jacoby.

I don't know if I would have said he ran some damn good routes.

But I'd say he ran good enough to get open & that's half the battle right there.

yup, but AJ doesn't make jacoby a more legit target than anyone else on the roster. those situations are for scheme and our "hands" team ... andre, walter, anderson, daniels, casey - and hopefully dorin dickerson. jacoby is a separation and run after the catch receiver who excels in creating and exploiting space. to suggest otherwise would be silly.

jacoby is worth keeping and in 40 catches could have 700yds and 11 touchdowns if used as the homerun first 2 downs opposite andre. walter is an ideal #2 any time we go 3 receiver and is the leader in short yardage situations.

i forget which game, but 2010 scenario - we use walter as an easily covered post route against andre undeneath in a max-pro play action (thrown away), and on 3rd down a 7 yard out to jacoby that is obviously a botched route (overthrown). swap 2 players on that series and how do you feel about the results of each play?

we're half-way there. jacoby on a play action post is a mismatch that he can win with his athleticism. an out route in a desperate situation is where walter (and now mason) should be the primary targets, along with johnson obviously when he's in. jones shouldnt even be on the field. we converted all day with walter and mason, but for some dumb ass reason we put jones in the game in redzone and key late game situations.
