Totally crashed the pocket when he was in and Jackson had no running room in the middle

I would "like" this post over and over again if I could.

The National Post Predator database won't allow it though

im going to be wearing my new vaccaro jerz at the game next week in tampa. love that kid.

obviously, we all know he made the play in the endzone to end the game by tipping that ball, but, what you might not have notieced is how he FINISHED that play by taking tony g to the ground and away from any chance of grabbing the reflection

Jenkins in my book has the biggest impact in the game and played better than any other rookie out there.

yep i said that

It looked like he was running three quarters speed deciding what kind of move to make.
Seems like he should have just turned on the jets.

Watch it again, his first glance after the catch told him two defenders had the line on him which they did then he glanced around on the other side looking to see if he would get any blocking and no one was around... He knew it was 3 on one and didnt want to get stripped.

He played it smart and kept control of the ball.
