Jerrel Jernigan and David Wilson

[UDOWNWJPP]

Anyone else like that play to Jernigan in the 1st quarter. I wouldn't mind seeing him in the slot for a few plays coming across the middle or a quick slant. I think that might force defenses to come out of the deep cover two they always seem to play on us. I don't know if he could take the shots but I'm interested in finding out. A couple screens to Wilson might not be bad idea as well. Give the kid some space and see if he can make some plays.

I think the coaches are starting to evaluate Jernigan over Cruz. At least JJ doesn't drop balls...

Is Cruz a one year wonder or what? Hmmmm..........

[Toadofsteel]

Not a one-year wonder. He still looks now like he should have been drafted at some point, but maybe a 4th or 5th rounder instead of the 1st last year...

on one catch Cruz could have ran a few yards to get a first down, but he didn't want to get hit and tried to run around them, in every game he does this

He's on pace for another 1000 yd season and he already has more touchdowns than last year. A drop-off was inevitable as defenses began to focus on him, but he's still very productive.

He clocked his fourth 100 yd game of the season yesterday. There's no reduction in talent.

still down from last year, although if he had just half the drops he actually has at this point, he'd be on pace to exceed...

Much of Cruz's 2011 production came from short passes which he took to the house. With teams now gameplanning around him, there are less opportunities for him to do that.

The frequent drops are concerning, though.

It's nice o see the coaches wanting to get JJ involved. The kid is gonna make some noise before all is said and done. He broke free down the middle late in the fourth but Eli never looked at him. Eli forced it to Nicks with no success.

I think the drops are concerning the coaches too. Jernigan pretty much never saw the field after week 3 last year. Last week I saw him in at least 7 different snaps...
