Winners and Losers quick Take

It's true that Jackson had little if any room. I'm not saying I think he's awful. It's just that I'm waiting to see that burst, or that tackle-breaking ability, on a few plays. Maybe
Ahman Green did spoil me. Maybe I have to think more Edgar Bennett.

This is Jackson's highlight tape from college. It looks to me like he has the ability at least at that level to break tackles. At this level it is more important to gain yards after contact. NFL defensive players are too fast and too good of tacklers for running backs to break a tackle and then run for ten more yards, if they get slowed up, especially at the line of scrimmage in most cases their is another tackle waiting only a few short yards away.

He also had no problems breaking tackles last week, but lets make comparisons on a weekly basis forgetting everything we see in the past.

One other thing that I think most of us are forgetting about Green, He had track star speed. He was clocked at a 4.22 at his pro day in Lincoln Nebraska. He claims in this article that he has been clocked at 4.18 in the fforty

Jackson's forty time was a 4.54. Thats a huge difference.
