Brandon Jacobs will be a stud this year (1 Viewer)

[TxBuckeye]

Wow, I've seen schtick before. But he's still going on about this a year later? And with Jacobs having the season he's having?? Has to be fishing. No human capable of typing is that idiotic.

Aside from being wrong about BJ being the goal line back, what do you hate about him so much? he is one of the most productive fantasy Running Backs in the league. Even with Ward and Bradshaw getting scraps. I don't understand why you hate certain proven studs like BJ and Jennings. It's ok to have an opinion and debate it to the death, but there comes a time to just STOP.

He continually comes in and spouts nonsense about Jacobs because he wants to reverse-jinx Jacobs, who is on his team. This has been explained multiple times. You're a chump for responding to him.

Even though, as a Jacobs owner, I was irked at the fact that Jacobs looked like he could have gotten 200 yards and 5 TDs if the Giants had let him, it sure was sweet watching his backups fail to score time and time again around the stripe. Especially after watching Jacobs make it look effortless earlier in the game.

 

[SierraKiloBravo]

I'm confused by this thread. Jacobs is the top RB in my league. Having said that, I think NYG sits him around week 15-16 after they've got home field locked up.

 

[starting over]

What coaches say during training camp and what they do once the season starts isn't always the same.

you are right about that, but you dont usually see coaches saying things like this if there isnt some truth to it.

Especially if it mirrors what they did when they won a Super Bowl.

Dont you ever get tired of being flat out wrong??? Jacobs is/was/will be the primary ball carrier. You were proven wrong last year and yet you still hang on like a pathetic little poodle latching on to someones foot. You will be wrong again this year. Theres a reason you lost a sig bet and if you feel a little jiggy, why dont you do it again??

Bring it. Right now Jacobs ranks as RB 18 according to version H of the VBD for PPR leagues.That is statistically impossible and everybody knows it.

Based on the last few years averages, he'd need about 150 yards or around 2 TDs.

im⋅pos⋅si⋅ble- 1. not possible; unable to be, exist, happen, etc.

The real pisser of that, as a Ravens hater (Steelers fan), is that they'll continue to crow about no one rushing for 100+ against them in a game. They got owned...and my "favorite" player Ray Ray got burned on the long Bradshaw run.

True dat. In a few weeks some stuffed-shirt will say that the Ravens haven't given up a 100 yard rusher in 30+ games. While that may be true, the Giants could have had any one of three guys do it if they felt like it.

Any updates on his MRI?

Coach Tom Coughlin confirmed Monday that Brandon Jacobs is having an MRI and acknowledged that Jacobs has experienced some swelling in his knee.Coughlin did say that Jacobs is "walking really well," which is a promising sign. "We’ve been down this road before," Coughlin said. "Hopefully this won’t keep Brandon out at all, but we have some people that are prepared."

What? Doesn't your league deduct points weekly from Jacobs for having fewer than 50% of all RB touches on his team for the season? Crazy scoring system...(#1 in my league too)

He was on Mike & Mike this morning. He said the MRI came back negative. He said he felt fine and was able to do some running already. The one thing that scared me is he said it was the same injury he got last yr vs DAL but that last year he was in alot of pain and this year he doesnt feel any.

I thought the injury last year he did have some structural damage?? Thats why it took 3 weeks to get back??

 

[inca911]

So when Jacobs sits the last few weeks, I assume the consensus is that Ward is the primary beneficiary. Yes?

 

[bb7278]

Regardless of a good MRI or not it sounds like it is still swollen and sore, with the Giants penchant for rotating backs and the need for the passing game againt AZ you have to knock him down a few spots for next week.

from RotoWorld...

Brandon Jacobs' MRI revealed no structural damage.

"Nothing serious," a source told the Newark Star-Ledger. "Just swollen and sore." The paper believes it's "safe" to assume Jacobs will play against the Cardinals, although the Giants may hold the news closer to the vest. Nov. 17 - 11:49 pm et

Yeah, there was. Just to clarify, Jacobs said that he was in a lot of pain the day after (last year) and that this year there was nothing like that pain, and that he feels good.

after Ward's and Bradshaw's failures at the GL last week, theres very little doubt who will be getting the TDs for NY.Jacobs touches will go down some as the season wears on.

 

[HoTnickZ]

I wouldn't be surprised if this injury lingers more than the Giants are letting on.

 

[Tat]

I wouldn't be surprised if this injury lingers more than the Giants are letting on.

News: The Newark Star-Ledger reports that Giants RB Brandon Jacobs doesn't have any damage in his swollen knee based on an MRI done on Monday, according to a team source. But in an interview on ESPN, Jacobs said that he doesn't think the team will let him play in Week 12, citing that the Giants have enough running backs behind him to work in his place and let his knee rest.Analysis: We'd like to hear something official from head coach Tom Coughlin on this, but that may not happen until later in the week. For now, figure that Jacobs will start in Week 12 at Arizona, but it's probably a good idea to get a backup plan in place if you don't have one already just in case he doesn't play. We'll be sure to stay locked in on all news involving Jacobs in the coming days.

Don't forget all the other times he isn't in inside the five that are not running plays, too. His GL use has been situational, not a de facto standard.
