Re: Jacoby Jones
I root for Banks every time he touches the ball (he's exactly my size -- 5'7", 155 -- so it's pretty much a necessity), and he's so fast, it's surprising to me he hasn't been able to break one for a TD yet. But I also hold my breath thinking that it won't take much of a whack for the ball to come loose.

Re: Jacoby Jones
I've been a huge Brandon Banks fan since he's been on the Redskins and I've argued for him and stood up for him on these boards. But I'm beginning to see what a lot of Redskins fans see and that is Banks lack of explosion. The great kickoff/punt returners we've had here in the past were explosive. Darrell Green, Brian Mitchell, Mike Nelms, Santana Moss, etc. Banks has speed but he's not explosive. His decisions to either let the ball bounce into the end zone or return it could have hurt the Redskins last Thursday. I would be more comfortable with Santana Moss returning punts.

Re: Jacoby Jones
I think just about everybody loved Banks at first.He's turned out to be nothing special,which is bad enough without his terrible decision making.
I was glad we didnt sign Jacoby,I watched a lot of Texans games and was not impressed,he was very inconsistant.I dont know what kind of receiving yr he's had,but he's def been better than Banks in the return dept

Re: Jacoby Jones
Have we tried A. Robinson back there? Seems like he might have something to offer. Can't get any worse than Banks is doing right now. It reminds me of when Randle El was at the latter stages of returning punts. Dance - dance - down...
NO question he has the ability, but either our return team isn't giving him any holes, or he just can't make a decision....either way, something has to change. |

Re: Jacoby Jones
There was nothing spectacular about the catch. He was wide open on a blown coverage.

Jones didn't want to come here for more money than he got in Baltimore. Why is this even an issue?

Re: Jacoby Jones
Jacoby Jones has tremendous explosion!!! What a kickoff returner.....Brandon Banks could definitely take some notes from him.

Brandon Banks is good as gone. I'll be surprised if they even bring him into training camp to compete.
