Jacobs out!!!! Hell yes!!!!!

get a grip dude

 

[atcdav]

How does Manning's injury affect Ward's value. would you trade to get that first waiver pick this week. Is Lorenzen serviceable enough for Ward to have a chance.

Jacobs out!!!! Hell yes!!!!!

Did you just wake up today and decide to be a tool? You've posted in numerous threads tonight, and not a single one of your posts bring anything to the table. Quit pissing in the Shark Pool and take your trash somewhere else.

Please tell me this is just really bad schtick.

 

[Reservoir Dog]

Hopefully BJ learned his leason here... when your stopped... your stopped. Don't kill yourself for the extra yds.

Did you watch the game? Or maybe even one of the hundreds of replays?

The "in thing" around here is to bash Jacobs' "upright" running style. Now everybody's blaming his injury on his running style, even though it has nothing to do with his injury. By the way, since when is it a bad thing for a running back to fight for extra yards? Should they start doing the quarterback slide before getting tackled?

Who would want a RB on their team that didn't attempt to fight for the extra yard??? Jacob's injury was one of those freak occurances that happens in football, nothing at all to do with his running style, imo.

Amazes me the people who bashed Jacobs before about his running style, would come in here and say, "See I told you so".If the same thing happened to Fred Taylor, it would be, "There goes Fragile Fred again". When it has nothing to do with his chroinc hamstring problem. Or If the same thing happened to Deuce, ti would be, "I guess he is not fully recovered from the ACL reconstruction yet." If the same thing happened to LT, it would be, "Oh what bad luck!"

If it's 3rd and 26, and my running back gains 10 yards, I don't want him fighting for the extra yard. The injury chance isn't worth the reward.It's an extreme example, but can be applied to many NFL situations. Now, if he's 2-3 yards away, I want him fighting for every inch.

Now Hold on... I'm BJ supporter and I drafted him on 2 Dynastys... I even took the HK sig bet. I'm just saying, the guy got hurt on the play and continue to move forward on one leg... possibly causing more damage... he very very very lucky that he didn't cause a season ending injury by doing that... There was no reason to continue on the play if he knew something went wrong. Who knows; if he went down as soon as he hit his knee... the injury might not be this bad.

 

[Bri]

There was no reason to continue on the play if he knew something went wrong.

I hear ya but NFL players often don't get that line of thinking til they get some experience. Bush said something along these lines this summer, for example. In previous years Jacobs was asked to move the pile pretty much as his primary job. I could see where he doesn't think like that yet. Hard to fault the effort too

I understand that too... but he must of known something happen on that play... you can clearly see that he doesn't put much wait on that leg as he spins and goes forward. Maybe even that little spin move caused more damage than the hit itself?

His knee was clearly hit pretty hard on the play, you can tell by how he basically was flipped over by the impact, I knew he was hurt before he got up.... :Jacobsowner:

Wasn't calling you out. Was talking in general, but Bri did a good job explaining my stance on what you brought up. Plus, adrenline kicks in while running the ball. After the play, we wasn't limping bad, but did notice something was wrong.

LOOK AT ME I LOVE BJs!!!

 

[GoBirds]

Article says he will be running by next week and is quoted as saying it sure won't be 5 weeks til he comes back. Need him in a couple weeks when Westy and Bush have byes, come on big guy!

Found this today:

Good news on Brandon Jacobs

Two encouraging reports on Brandon Jacobs (knee) coming out of New York. One says Jacobs was riding the stationary bike in practice on Wednesday. Another says Jacobs was walking without a limp or a wrap on his knee. "It sure won't be five weeks [that I'm out]," Jacobs told Newsday. Wow, there's a chance the big guy sucks it up and plays in week 3 or 4 if we're reading into this correctly.

Ya gotta figure the Giants will bring a FB in this week for a look. They will have roster spots, one of(if not the) the cheapest positions salary wise in the NFL......it'd be too weird for them not to.

ahem

a little more...On Wednesday, Newsday reported that Jacobs was seen in the locker room walking without a limp or a wrap on his injured right knee. When asked his possible return date, the superhuman Jacobs replied "It sure won't be five weeks. I'll be running by next week."

 

[shadyridr]

Just showed his injury on NBC. Def looks like some kind of sprained knee. Might not be as bad as some think

Getting hit on the front of the knee with foot planted = ACL. Hurts like hell, but you can still walk on it.Tests = MRI --> season ending surgery if torn (as we all know)

good analysis

[BigRed]

Updates? I might be able to acquire Jacobs on the cheap and suspect some bad late-breaking injury update I don't know about yet.......

Not trying to scare anyone or pooh-pooh the good news, but the "walking without a limp or wrap" is much more impressive than riding a stationary bike. Typically, even patients recovering from knee surgery can ride a stationary bike long before they can jog or run. I'm not saying he won't be coming back sooner - I'm just saying the bike thing just means he's got decent range of motion and is not in much pain (i.e. probably not much swelling) - all if which is a positive.

 

[Markus P Dub]

Well I was able to move Brandon Jacobs straight up for Roy Williams. I'm still a Jacobs fan but I have a feeling he will iffy all year. I do own him in 2 other leagues though, but moved him in my main $$ league. I think it's a fairly decent deal and Roy is a low end #1.

 

[TheFanatic]

This is definitely good news. I need him week 6 when Addai and Gore are on bye. I would love to see him get a game under his belt before then to see if he's good to go....

lol @ stealing Wms for Jacobs. The more I think about it the less I want this guy. Injury risk, team looks iffy for so many reasons - yeah Manning put up some nice numbers vs depleted DAL secondary, but now Ward might do some RBBC even when he's back since that OL isn't exactly condusive to a power runner (no room) but favors the more scatback/catch short passes type........pass

 

[ncsulaw]

Jacobs coming back soon?

USA Today reports Giants RB Derrick Ward will start in week 2 but Brandon Jacobs (knee) "says he'll be back in two [weeks], and was seen in the locker room walking without a limp, a brace or a boot."

[DA RAIDERS]

any updates homers?

will droughns get a good chunk? or is all ward?

 

[TinHat]

Not that I want to see anybody get hurt, but as a DW owner, I can't help but feel it's beneficial to me and DW if Jacobs tries to push himself back into the lineup at a rapid pace.

 

[Bears_Man2]

Everything will be all good when we hear the news he's back running in the 4.3's -4.4's again.

 

[eom]

the power of prayer will heal him --- I strongly suspect the lord drafted him in the second round.

 

[RoosterScott]

On a more serious note who will backup Ward and get a few carries? I heard that Ahmad Bradshaw will recieve some carries week 2. I wonder if Ward struggles who they'll go with?????????

 

[Reservoir Dog]

Droughns

 

[-OZ-]

any updates homers?

Apparently. I didn't see the game, but a 6.0 avg and 125 total yards makes it look like he played well.

 

[Bri]

can't believe how little Droughns had the ball

 

[JohnnyU]

can't believe how little Droughns had the ball

[hellz_fireflies]

WARD is the man..when Jocabs comes back he's #2 (to slow plus can't block).

 

[Bri]

can't believe how little Droughns had the ball

Still not convinced?

well I typed that tonight after the game so yeah.I've seen Ward for years now and, one helluva game today for him, but I just don't think he's THAT good. He's useful and effective but.....I never saw this from him. Kudos to him I guess

imo, Droughns was good in Denver.....just ok in Cleveland. He's an excellent special teams guy and he can play FB. Featured runner when not in Denver???not so much

 

[icehouse]

Any updates on Jacobs? Someone dropped him in one of my leagues. Is he more hurt than originally thought?

I'm not the biggest Droughns fan, but......there aren't many RBs out there who could be good in both Denver and Cleveland.
