He's on a pretty reasonable contract, but I do wonder how much can he handle before he starts getting upset at his lack of snaps.

I understand fans wondering where Jones was tonight, he got one catch from Rodgers. But that's just it, Rodgers has to throw him the ball. Mark it down right now, James Jones will have big games this season. Jordy is a great target on short routs and comebacks around 10 yards. Jones is a guy who the Packers typically stretch the field with down the side line. Rodgers had some great, long passes tonight, but most of them went to Jennings or Finley. Those weren't very common, however, and while the O line looked very solid (cheer!) Rodgers was often getting rid of the ball very quickly after the snap, especially in the first half. Without a lot of time to throw Jones isn't going to see much of the ball. Defenses are going to start keying in on Jennings and Finley (as if it matters with Finley; man, the guy is a beast) and Jones will come open.

The passing attack of this team is just nasty, dirty, disgusting. I love it.

Go Packers.

Yeah I was guessing he was rethinking about resigning with the Packers...

Question is was he getting snaps and just not getting open? Or not catching Rodgers eye? Or was he not getting snaps? Or what is going on?

Nelson got out there and made some plays.... at the end of last year it would seem like Nelson or Jones would make plays... not both... so maybe this is Nelson week? And Jones will have a week in the future?

I also didn't see TE Williams... and I saw Quarless but it seemed like mainly blocking.

To answer your question, I'd say yes. Jennings, Driver, Jordy and Jones, but then again, depth chart on WR doesn't mean much. I think the Packers flip WR in an out and have several lined up at any given time.

MM's big on matchups. If JJ's skill set matches up with a defense better than Jordy's, he'll probably get more shots than Jordy that week. Didn't seem like it this week, but that's just one team.
