Nelson & Jennings playing like wimps

[Iron Mike]

Maybe they should both do more pushing off, as apparently it isn't a penalty in the NFL anymore.

Receivers slumping big time.

Jordy came to play today. Jennings can't finish a game.

Agreed. I think GJ makes less money next year than he did this. He's had a good career, but I'm afraid it seems like it's winding down. Hope I'm wrong, but there seems like a lot of parallels to Freeman at this point in his career right now.

I feel like Jordy has never been that physical of a receiver and has never played up to his size. I've seen Greg stick his head up and compete for the ball a bit but he's not so big that its a good idea to depend on him in that roll. Jordy has never played like a 6'3" 230 pounder though. Both of those guys have exceptional straight line speed, run pretty good routes, and are shifty with the ball in their hands but I don't of either one as a physical possession type reciever. When you look at how teams have been playing us its no wonder that James Jones has been a standout so far. That dirty move the chains stuff is his game. Finley is starting to wake up a bit too and between those guys and Cobb you have a physical presence that can keep the machine running when the big plays from Greg and Jordy aren't there.

Nelson had a couple of tough catches off contact today. But I agree, Jones is less bothered by the bumps. I do think Nelson competes well for a high ball. But if Jones could catch over his shoulder he would play more.

Have always thought of Jennings as just about fearless. I think his recent struggles are due more to injuries (esp groin) than toughness.

Jennings is killing me in fantasy - really regret drafting that turd.

And he's killing himself in free agency.

And he's killing himself in free agency.

Yeah, but it's costing me real money

[JohnMexico]

Discount resign?
Let his ass sit until he's ready ready.

GJ's injuries and lack of special games is costing the both of you money that must total millions of dollars in combined Wist fantasy winnings and GJ FA contract $$. Millions. And a million here and a million there adds up.

[Patler]

Jones seems to make a lot of difficult catches, catches a lot of contested balls, and catches with guys hanging on him. His drops have always been on easier throws. In that way it is more maddening.

[rbaloha1]

Responded to toughness being questioned. Its nice to have an ex running back as a receiver's coach.

[mraynrand]

C'mon Jennings! Step it up! Wisty's baby needs a new pair of shoes!!!
