Great game by JJ. Who will be the first to have his 4th quarter catch as part of their signature?

That being said, great receivers have stellar play consistently and we have only one data point so far to go from this season. Ideally, week 4 is the start of a great run by Jones.

The final catch by James Jones was insane. I still don't believe how he caught that. The angle I saw, it looked like the CB was between he and Aaron and just stuck his left hand out, the ball bounced into his chest, catch. Incredible.

James Jones leads the Packers in touchdown receptions with 3 this year.

How good did James Jones look today? Did he have a single drop?

Player of the game imo.

That was one of the best catches I have seen in a while - fishing it in around a guy with one hand 🙂 Loved that play - excellent catch.

In honor of Nerds comeback thread.. maybe this game with finally silence the "Jones" questions about why his is upon the roster.

Other than Nelson.. I believe he is the only guy that can beat the man across from him physically and get off the ball from the WR position with contact.

Nice game for JJ. Now, he just has to do that consistently.

Hey Pack93, just to answer the Jones portion here...

I know for myself, I brought up the Jones trade topic simply for the fact that he was IMO one of the most tradable Packer players at the time, with great ability and a very cap friendly contract. I never implied that I didn't like the guy or not want him a part of our team, at least I never intended that as part of my bringing it up. James Jones is a great player. Amidst all the uproar over his drops from 2010, I always felt the guy was integral to our playing in and winning the SB. Without question. I also felt he really righted himself in 2011 by knocking down those drop totals and being more reliable. He's had a very nice turnaround.

You are right that he is able to win the physical play battles at WR. Both he and Nelson are deceptively tough.

Was he the most trade able this offseason.. probably. Heck I would probably agree as on most teams he is probably at worst the third option if not the second.

James Jones had an amazing game. Wish he could do this every week though.

If I were Greg Jennings, I'd be getting nervous with Cobb, Jones, and Nelson's performances this past week...and if they continue to excel while he rides the injury wagon. I love Greg Jennings but he isn't helping the Packers while on the bench...

James Jones!

Zero2Cool (7h) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (21h) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (21h) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.
