I have to say, I dislike Jones as a WR, but this is a great teammate move. The football world is all about QBs being dicks and yelling at their WRs\Linemen, so this could have been a time for JJ to play the victim or make a public plea for Aaron to not do that on TV,etc.

But he didn't.

He said "it was my fault, we hate turning the ball over, we show our emotions, and we move on try to win the game."

Classy move.

Jones has pretty much always said the right thing since he has been on the team. Though this is twice, that I can think of that he cut off a route and resulted in an INT. The other was when Flynn was under center.

This last time, I can excuse him. The defender had his route defended as well as possible. He was standing right were the ball was suppose to go. Most Jones could have done in that situation is try to run the DB over and hope for an PI or illegal contact. The ball never should have been thrown anywhere near Jones on that play.

The other, there is no excuse. It was a slant. Rule 1 when running a slant, NEVER cut off the route.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Gotta love that move by JJ, real classy. Really makes Finleys agent Baratz look like a dickhead...give him a sweatband so he can cover up his circumcision.

I loved Mike Sherman as a person. Hated him as a GM. And never forgave him for punting on 4th and 1 to seal up the Eagles Playoff game. But as a person, great guy. Bleeds Green and Gold.

JJ may be in that category for me. Great move. Seems like a classy guy. But drives me nuts on the field.

I was pulling for him. HUGE fan of his in 2007. He reminded me so much of Sterling Sharpe.

It's stuff like this where I have to root for the guy. He's definitely Packer people.

agreed. great move on his part. If he has an issue with AR let them go talk in the locker room and work it out. As I said in another post it is amazing that the qb never throws to the the wrong route it is always the receiver who is blamed for running the wrong one. go figure.

I really did want to root for JJ though. I was one of the guys defending him last year up until later on in the season when the drops got to the point of the straw breaking the camel's back.

I sometimes think that JJ belonged with Favre. Those two had a strong chemistry. Wish we traded him for Berrian. Berrian and Favre didn't click at all and wouldn't mind having a one-dimensional speedster. I'm sure 🇲🇲 could have given opposing DCs headaches with Berrian.

This is a Super Bowl or bust team. They all need to be on the same page.

Skip Bayless is a boring version of Andy Kaufman.
