One of them gots to go, Doctson will be fine next year and take one of the starting spots.
He may very well be. But in order to give a fair evaluation of his play he has to actually get on the field and stay there. Once he does that then he's going to have to compete and not live off of 1st round draft pick status.

Sometimes you can't and have to follow your gut, Djax is not doing it for me. He bitches when he doesn't get the ball, he was bitching at Cousins at one point today despite Cousins trying to make him the featured WR. I thiught Jenkins got the best of Jackson today. Jackson might be fast but isn't physical imposing, like Doctson who will be just fine.

I actually want to see Doctson on the field before I'm willing to let Jackson walk. And let him not walk back to Philly. That could be a mistake.

He would go to LA.

Just remember Philly let Jackson go during his athletic prime mostly because of his attitude and there were concerns over his character.

In the last 4 weeks (our streak) kirk has 8 tds to 3ints and is much better in the RZ.. I'll take those numbers over a four game span. His ints will drop soon too.

Did you guys hear what Gruden said? Cousins confidence is being affected by the media and the fans?! I PRAY that's not true.

Yeah, I heard that too. One of the knocks on him over the last couple years has been that, once he throws an INT, he gets too caught up in the mistake. I don't think he's thin skinned or a hot-house flower who needs to be patted on the back to thrive. Rather, I think it's more he's trying so hard to be perfect that he dwells on the bad and doesn't move past it.
Maybe he was pressing to live up to expectations or trying to prove doubters wrong. Whatever the reason, he seemed to get past it yesterday and was much more decisive on his throws. I remember watching one replay where Garcon hadn't even come out of the break and the ball was in the air; PG breaks in and catches it midstride ~20 yards downfield. Good stuff.

Tha's the part I worry about too.
And agreed. This is a win you can build on. He made plays when he had to and threw the ball away (except one stupid decision) when nothing was there.

He was cut by a big asshole named Chip Kelly who thought he could impose his weird ideas on Pro Bowl players in a dictatorial fashion. He cut or traded several Pro Bowl players who wouldn't go along with his stupid program at the same time he cut DJax. Chip assumed that he could win without them. He was wrong and he got fired because of it.
Now, Chip is busy wrecking the 49'ers. He will surely be fired there, too. The "character concerns" you mentioned were a slanderous attempt by Kelly to justify his own stupid actions.
I hope this helps you to better understand what really happened to DJax in Philly.
