Also, I'm a little disappointed in James Jones comments. Seems like a bit of a quitter to me.

yeah his comments did come off kind of lame... but. I mean you gotta admit he's right. If he is out there worrying about his knee, how much can he really help us. We have 5 good WR's on this team and its week 4.

I'd much rather test Jordy and Ruvell and let James get healthy for the second half of the year.

If Jordy becomes the threat and playmaker he was at Kansas State...then we have one hell of a WR core for years to come.

James, get ya shit together.

what??? are you kidding me? he's being SMART, nothing more. nothing less. he's absolutely right that if he cannot concentrate and help the team win, he shouldn't be in there until he's healthy enough to have that momentum back.

as for Jordy? i think he's got HUGE potential. whether or not he can nuture that talent and produce plays remains to be seen.

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

It's hard to hear what Jones said.......because we see guys play through pain. But if he's NOT going to give 100% out there, i'd rather have him sit.

He didn't say he wasn't going to GIVE 100%, he said that he might not BE 100%. Big difference. Players don't usually talk about injuries in such a straightforward way, but I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt on this one because he's been a high-effort guy ever since he's been drafted. I thought he was headed for a breakout season before the injury, and if he gets healthy soon, he could still put up some big numbers.

I like Jordy too, but he's a work in progress. I think he will go back to the #5 spot when James Jones and Ruvell Martin get healthy, but he's the kind of player who could make a big leap next year.

i'd rather see Jones act smart about it and say "if it's not ready, it's not ready" instead of playing with an injury, making it worse, and keeping him from performing well for the entire season.

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

I'm very proud for Jordy. Hopefully he can make some plays for us in the coming weeks. I'm a big fan of Jones, I'm hoping he gets healthy to. His comments dont seem bad to me, he's lookin out for himself and the team. Nobody wants another Terrence Murphy situation. If Jones isnt 100 healthy and he gets hit hard, im sure he'll be done for wekes, if not the season. Not sayin James isnt tough but if his knee is hurtin him that bad, since the Denver game. He shouldnt play until he's 100 percent healthy.
