A lot of commentary from the pundits regarding the RB position, they think the Oline has been fine all along (maybe a nod to Long's size but needs to technique up better on some) but the primary reason is competition.
There are now 3 guys competing for game day snaps with no apparent designated starter and they are feeding off each other.
Yeah, Niles has been blocking his ass off but too many times the RB (Jones) was just missing the holes or 'skipping' into them with no forward momentum for a guy his size.
Plug in Kelly and he's decisive and hits it hard, might not always be the 'correct' hole but that's what is needed out of Jones. Thompson wants it too and the little buggar hits it hard as well.
Jones has still got to work on ball security, that last run for the clincher, great run but the ball was still up for grabs on the defenders side for a long while, don't remember if he finally switched hands but maybe a few more yards could be had by defending himself with the inside hand with the ball tucked tight on the outside.
Aside from the pick six, Kirk was on most of the game.... don't recall how many drops there were but the drop by Djax for the TD alone would have made Kirk's stat line a bunch better. Even on the pick some where saying that Davis should have moved toward the ball more aggressively. Still a bad throw to me tho.
Yep, still need mo' better third and short plays in there.... the neat thing is now they're getting into that scenario a lot more...bonehead penalties were down too, nice to see.
