D.Jackson waiting

Fox talked about the progress of practice squad receiver Dexter Jackson from Appalachian State.

“He's got very good explosion,” Fox said. “He's got good quickness and good deep speed. Right now, we're looking at him as far as learning our system, and I like what I've seen so far. He's got that good quickness and good big-play ability. If need be, if somebody got injured again, we might be able to do something with him. So he's a guy that's learning and developing.

they've invested more in goodson for the KR game so i can see why they'd want to stick with goodson for longer. they said he has been getting healthy the past few weeks and now it's just a matter of communication.

i know goodson can be good in the open field...he just has to get his head in it.

once the game slows down for him he's going to be deadly any time he touches that ball.

I'd just like to see him returning punts or kicks.

A lot of the young guys -- Goodson, Munnerlyn and Moore -- have shown promise, but they've also committed their share of mistakes.

Man, I miss Mark Jones.

i don't. he was good for last year but he wouldn't have been this year. i'm glad we didn't bring him back.

we still need someone desperately, though. the KR part of the game has been absolutely horrible.

we just need someone with experience doing returns, though....and not someone who relied on the 3 man wedge to be productive.

He has to get those fumbles under control but that can be coached. He is def a Reggie Bush/Brian Westbrook type player for sure.

Mark Jones could not even pass our Physical test this year. He really fell off with the Titans.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
