[CBFF] Benson

[Nat Mara]

I don't disagree too much with your assesment, however when Jones was out
here in AZ, he was a completely different player than he is now.  He might
be dancing a lot lately, but I was very impressed with how he ran hard last
year .. And he has always played through pain as well.  My question is
whether or not he is completely healthy or not.

Also watching the replay last night, I noticed something that seems to not
have been noticed by the media, nor by any of us.

 

After Grossman's TD pass, the second guy to meet him on the sideline, all
pumped up, was Benson. So all this hoopla about Benson's "sadness", for lack
of a better word, was all talking heads crap.

 

The guy is bummed because he wants to play. What a non story. I hope he is
bummed because he is not out there.

 

We all know what Jones can do. In the replay last night, I counted 4 times
he juked instead of hitting the line. The most damaging was the drive after
the int. for a td. It was 2nd down and 2 from the 11, going in. He had a
huge hole on either side of Tait, and if he runs inside, its first and goal
from at least the 5 yard line. Instead he runs right into lineman who is
desperately trying to seal that gap, and now its 3rd and 5 from the 13.

 

Lets take the caddy out of the garage to work Sunday. I am not putting down
Jones, as he is a great asset. But lets see what the first round pick has.
Jones was beat out twice before he came to the Bears for a reason. Lets see
if Benson can make it three.
