Jackson may not deserve this nickname yet, but I'm giving it to him


top dawg

Recommended Posts

Once he goes through his growing pains (including not over-pursuing), Donte "Action" Jackson just might become a notable corner in the league. The kid has obviously got some talent and skills and...swag! Let's see if he can corral that "wild stallion-esque" type quality into fundamentally sound focused aggression.

Anyway, getting to the reason for the thread, the name "Donte 'Action' Jackson" is cool and all. It is. But it's a little long (especially for writing). I've seen some refer to him as D-Jax. Well, we know that's not gonna fly. I've seen D-Jac. Well that just doesn't sound right. It's like a bootleg version of D-Jax. And Jac is just too close to "jacked" for my liking, so I was thinking..."Donte Action Jackson...Action  Jackson..." :thinking:  Then it came to me..."A-Jax!" 

A-Jax, Ajax (whatever), the name for him is A-Jax! You saw him clean up that third down play last night. 

A-Jax it is!

I'm pretty sure he was out of position last night on a wr screen and let someone get to the edge. other than that he played well. gotta imagine he'll be a starter going into the season.

the best part about jackson is you can tell he's the kind of player who literally never stops talking poo on the field.

Jackson looked like a rookie and had good plays and bad just like Corn. He wasn't great and didn't suck. But he played with heart and speed neither of which you can coach. You either have it or you don't. In time he will improve and be a legitimate starter. As for the name I thought Cam had dibs on that honor.

    • Please don't tell me you just averaged the QB ratings of all of Shough's starts to declare his QB rating as better 😂 I hope you don't actually believe that's how it works.  Otherwise please show your math on Shough's QB rating as a starter. Thanks for including Shough's 2.6 more Rushing YPG in this comparison, really doesn't feel at all like you're desperately grasping for as many straws as you can here. The truth is, it takes a statistical bottom-tier starting QB like Bryce Young to make Shough look simply OK by comparison.  And that bottom-tier starting QB still, by your own admission, puts up more points for his offense than Shough.  You're framing this as damning for Bryce, but in reality the fact that him and Bryce are so neck-and-neck is shining Shough in a very poor light. Yes Shough is a rookie and Young is a 3rd year starter, which is why I circle back to my position of Shough having a "pretty solid, encouraging rookie season" whereas you're fanboying over him.  Never mind that Shough is 2 years older than Bryce though.  Normally yes a QB's experience in the league is invaluable...but Bryce is kind of a unique situation considering the biggest complaint with him is he is too physically limited to succeed in the league.  Do we think a QB can overcome severe physical limitations simply with experience?  Also I remember wayyyy back (/s) when we cared so much about DJ Johnson being an older rookie and our standard for them being that they're more NFL-ready and able to contribute sooner rather than later.  But now all of a sudden Shough is just a poor little 26-year-old rookie on an awful team.  Seriously...the way you frame everything around Shough is straight out of a fanfic.  Constantly referencing with tears in your eyes how he's succeeding against all odds on such an awful team.  Meanwhile the Saints' D is 14th in PPG and their offense (led by Shough) is 29th in PPG.  Telling me how the Saints managed a win on Shough's shoulders against the Jets last week who put up...*checks notes*...6 points against the Saints' D.  Yes god bless the savior Shough who willed his team to victory against those juggernauts led by Brady Cook.  Never mind how Taysom Hill threw as many touchdowns in 1 passing attempt as Shough did in 49 passing attempts.  Yikes.
    • Who's gonna drop the gloves? I can't think of a single player on this team that can fight. Period. Much less get the best of an opposing player. Please.
    • as a starter, Shough is better this year in all the aspects I shared with you.  Facts. You disputed nothing I said because I’m talking starts and my numbers are right
