The D was put in bad positions all night by the offense. When it was 14-0 Payton could still have controlled the game. |

Re: Malcolm Jenkins=Jason David
I can't believe this thread is still alive. Is there anyway to bump a thread to the back??

Re: Malcolm Jenkins=Jason David
I don't even remember who started this thread. Wasn't me. I thought the entire secondary sucked it up last night, not just Malcom. I will agree to disagree, and call it a night on this thread. Besides, Minnesota just clinched another loss, with Favre's interception. I guess we do get a Mulligan after all huh?

Re: Malcolm Jenkins=Jason David
Jenkins is a rookie who will get better. The team might not know yet if he will be a CB or FS.

Re: Malcolm Jenkins=Jason David
Our hands are tied in this situation as we're forced to start Jenkins because Greer and Porter are out. It's obvious Jenkins is struggling out there... as he has the last 3 games now. It's not physical by any means, he's just not mentally all there during the game... which I think is reminiscent of Jason David and Josh Bullocks in that aspect. Let's just hope our D picks it back up and our guys coming back healthy for the playoffs. It'll allow Jenkins to go back to his dime/special team role where he was much more effective at the beginning of the year... until he shows he's ready enough for a bigger part of the defense.

Re: Malcolm Jenkins=Jason David
The whole team played bad Saturday night. Not enough pressure on Romo, yes Jenkins bit on a pump and was burned by Austin it happens to every db in the game. The whole team is to be blamed not just 1 individual. Because if you want to blame just 1 player I'll start with the dropped td pass to Devery which took away what could have been a momentum swing.

Re: Malcolm Jenkins=Jason David
Malcolm Jenkins is more of what Robert Massey was when he got toasted by Flipper Anderson. Afterwards, Massey got it together and became All-Pro. Time will tell on what kind of player Jenkins would become after he had a "Flipper-like" experience from Miles Austin. Jason David was just another Elvis Patterson.

Re: Malcolm Jenkins=Jason David
The loss was obviously not Jenkis fault. He is a rookie, but mark my words, he's not a CB. He is being put in a pretty tough situation, so I don't blame him or compare him to JD at all. He has made some SPECTACULAR plays for us this year on ST and a few good plays on D this year. I think he will be a Pro Bowl FS in time.
Having said that, Charles Grant is like a freaking apparition out there. He's either hurt or losing it. Props to Vilma, Porter, and Will Smith for MANNING UP and playing a hell of a game. Harper has the worst hands in our secondary. His dropped pick was just inexcuseable. |
