Taylor Jacobs injured again?

[Hog's Breath]

I just heard he injured his groin. Has this guy ever been healthy through preseason? He seems like he has alot of potential, but man, always hurt. Shouldn't we finally let this guy go?

[SmootSmack]

Yeah he strained his groin (insert Lance Bass/Taylor Jacobs joke here) and missed Thursday's practice.

Not a big deal in most cases, but this is TJ we're talking about

By the way, welcome to the board Hog's Breath! Have an Altoid.

Yeah, welcome to the boards Hog's Breath. Anyways, i used to have faith that T.J. would come together one day, but that day is apparantly never gonna come. Then again, i used to have faith that Rod Gardner would be a good #2 receiver as well, and look how that turned out. Either way, he's probably gonna get cut before the regular season.

TJ's problem is that he has a lack of heart... And everyone knows that is the biggest muscle in the NFL!!

[Redskins8588]

Time to play devils advocate...
More than once Daseal has claimed that TJ gets good seperation during games and that Brunell will not throw him the ball. And others chime in with that maybe Brunell does not have any confidence in TJ to catch the ball. Well if that is true, my question is this, will Brunell have confidence in Lloyd and ARE??? Just a thought...

[Master4Caster]

Is he still here?

[SmootSmack]

Lloyd and Randle El have proven themselves over multiple NFL regular seasons (and in El's case, all the way to the Super Bowl) so I don't think Brunell is going to lack confidence in them.

On another note, a few years back there was a receiver on the Redskins (I can't remember who now, but I want to say Derrius Thompson) who I would see open a lot but he almost never got the ball.

So I mentioned this to one of his teammates during an interview, "Hey, he seems to be open a lot why isn't he getting more passes thrown his way." And the answer was "He might be open, but he never runs the right route." I thought what does it matter if he's open, but I guess apparently it does.

Now I'm not saying this is the case with TJ, but I wonder if it's possible.

[mooby]

How come it has to be an issue as to whether or not he's running the right route? I say if I'm the quarterback and i see an open receiver, i don't care whether or not he's doing the right route, i get him the ball.

Actually, i hear thats sean taylors penis.

remember what happenened a couple of years in the super bowl to neil odonnell when a receiver ran a wrong route? most of the routes are timing and the ball is thrown to a spot, thats why it matters. and jacobs is thru here. potential only goes so far. time for him to tryout for the eagles

[Schneed10]

TAFKAS, change your damn title! I don't like it when people say hi to others. Do not say hi to me. NOT COOL.

TJ sucks. Why do so many people refuse to learn when it comes to this guy. Every year he shows great promise in practices. And every year when he gets on the field he does NOTHING. He's a practice player, not a gamer. This year is going to be no different. He should be cut even if he were 100% healthy.

[MTK]

TJ injured again. Wow, shocker.

Can't wait to ship this guy out.

[BigSKINBauer]

When i saw him out yesterday i thought he might have injured his eyelash or something allong those lines.

I think ultimately that's the key factor, it comes down to timing. Dmek, Schneed is being a big meanie! He won't say hi, so I'll say hi to you instead. Hi dmek!
