Cam should be plenty busy breaking down bad throws all day from him.

Jones is one of the "premier" QB's getting paid the top end salary of $495K. The games are entertaining, but the viewer just needs to understand the quality cannot match either the NFL or the CFL at a fraction of the compensation.

"Premier" ... lol. Ok .. and no one is comparing him to the NFL, CFL etc. Dude was released from the Steelers for a reason.

I've watched other QB's around the XFL play much better than Landry. He's garbage plain and simple. 3 int's in 1 quarter is atrocious on any level but that is Stoop's guy.

But good for Jones and that $495k salary. It's great if you can get it.

That "premier" was tongue in cheek, of course. I was pointing out that he was supposed to be one of the best in the league, thus getting paid the most, but when compared to even backups in the NFL and CFL he pretty much sucks. A couple of the QB's I've seen may be good enough to earn a backup role in one of the other two "major" leagues. PJ Walker with Houston is one of them. He spent a couple of years or so on the Colts practice squad but maybe his showing in the XFL can get him back into the league. He is undersized, of course, but that is being more and more overlooked recently.
