There are some serious temper tamtrums going on after a winning week :)

Jones will get more balls thrown to him this week and it will have nothing to do with him being 'bothered'. He will get them because he deserves them and because the types of passes he receives--long balls--will be easier to throw against the Panthers than the Saints.

Overplayed topic. But on a team that doesn't have a ton of front line issues.. it has risen to the top.

I think Jones response was just fine and to my recollection nerd, he didn't go running to the media...the media (snakes) went running to him because they saw some drama with him getting one target and very limited playing time in a run-based formation.

He plays for the Packers and the only guy who won't get the shaft week in and out in PT is Jennings. Maybe in week 4 🇲🇲 sees a mismatch that James Jones makes for the Broncos and Driver only sees limited time. We will never know...

Look on the bright side, James Jones is 100% in catches this season! 1/1.

Alrighty Nerd.. stick yourself in his shoes and answer the question posed...

What is reaction to only getting one ball thrown your way and a handful of meaningful snaps?

Just be careful.. because I will browbeat your ass with the answer.. [grin1]

I think you're quoting someone else. I've noted in the past that JJ seems to run a lot of sideline routes in the past, but I don't think I've mentioned it in this thread.

Socrates was the one in the toga and sandles in Bill and Ted's excellent adventure right? [grin1]

As for my crude bluntness - deal with it or hit the ignore button. The day I become a lemming is the day I hope someone that loves puts a bullet in my head.

We have had some dog shit asshole posters in the past and Nerd is not one of those. And I take offense to you having the audacity to say "no one likes you Nerd." Yes, you speak for everyone right Evad. ✋

My problem with many of your posts is that aside from your assertion that others are sheep, you don't quantify anything. You'll make your statement once, people will respond in kind, and your subsequent retorts are a series of declarations about what a free thinker you are -- and that others are following the hive mind.

I may be guilty of impudence from time to time (e.g. my love affair with nerd) but if anything is audacious it's smearing whole bunches of others with a broad brush because they have a different view than you of what's good for the Packers.


William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

You make it sound like he's some recalcitrant teenage girl who won't clean her room.

I could write a whole article on your greed in place of a winning attitude and your fragile confidence. Nothing more than a receiving Albert Haynesworth.. lol.
