One thing to watch in JAX. Cruz/Beckham give warning of sorts


top dawg

Recommended Posts

Neither Victor Cruz or Odell Beckham Jr. apparently cared for the way that the Jaguars were playing Beckham during their preseason game.  They basically intimated that the Jags were attempting cheap shots according to NFL.com's Dan Hanzus.

"From the line, you can see it as you're running your route and you're running a vertical route, and you take a peek at the safety before you look at the ball, and you just see him head down trying to spear you," Cruz explained. "You can see that from a mile away. He's a smart kid, he understands that, but it's just unfair. It kind of made me upset watching it."

Beckham agreed with Cruz's assessment.

"Man to man, if you have a chance to make a play, make it," Beckham told The Michael Kay Show on ESPN Radio (via ESPN.com). "Don't make a play on me."

No time for that poo against our receiving corps. Too bad our enforcer won't be out there.  I just hope that Funchess, Olsen, Cam and the rest of the gang are aware. I don't think that Cruz and Beckham are just being divas.

If they were trying to be divas, I wouldn't think it would be over a pre season game. Something worth watching.

Sigh... that used to simply be called "playing football". 

Now, these receivers expect flags to fly every time they take a hit.

Seahawk DE Bennett was talking about that the other day....cry babies and average QBs paid like elite football players compared to actual good football players at other spots.

specifically mentioned Brady, Peyton and Cam as rare QBs who take hits like men and tell defenders nice hit....while the rest cry over every hit

    • I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.
    • Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.
    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
