I like Jacobs talent possibilities, even though he does seem a bit soft.

the guy is a cream-puff.

Regarding his freak accident, in the final preseaon game of 2003, he dove for a low pass and landed on someone's foot. Not what I would call a big hit. It took him a month to come back.

How have we seen enough of Jacobs to make any sort of determination about what kind of player he is?? He's soft? What makes you guys think that?

Totally agree!

Decision's are being made because of his lack of production and not his talent which many factor's can come into play why a player hasen't been productive and not alway's will they be his fault, I believe he will be a good reciever for us but not more than a 3rd reciever but he will be a very good 3rd reciever.

doesn't Jacobs play special teams every time? if he's soft, what's Betts.

TheMalcolmConnection · 01-24-2005, 04:09 PM

It's one of those instinct type of things. Just seeing the way he responded when he got hit. I'll give him credit where credit is due. Just my first impression.

lifetimeskin · 01-24-2005, 04:45 PM

I agree with Malcolm on this, it is just a perception....just like the perception of ST is that he is one mean SOB (and he actually maybe). I just have a feeling that Jacobs is capable of a Pinkston.

i'm wary. Burress = Peerless Price

no alexander thats the mistake that we did with Raymer, and the TE we got from the Saints who we let go of later in the season. let draft heath ,and get plaxico. thats the best SMART thing to do.

price is a #2 WR. we don't need a number one we have one, coles we need a compliment to coles and for him to be healthy. that would be good to have buress to take the pressure off of coles

TheMalcolmConnection · 01-25-2005, 10:59 PM

Playing special teams doesn't make you any more of a man. Making TACKLES on special teams is a completely different ballgame and I don't remember Jacobs making any tackles.

Not to confuse this with any of my previous statements, I DO think he has promise. I just think that he might be a tentative.

MTK · 01-26-2005, 08:53 AM

He did block a punt though

TheMalcolmConnection · 01-26-2005, 10:18 AM

Really now? I stand corrected. I thought it was Walt Harris both times.

TheMalcolmConnection · 01-26-2005, 11:35 AM

Ahhhhhhh.... excellent. Thanks for that.

I still think he plays a bit tentative. Just my opinion, even though I think he has a chance to be a playmaker.

SkinsRock · 01-26-2005, 02:02 PM

Didn't Jacobs also have a big special teams tackle in the Minnesota game where he totally nailed the guy?
