Donte Jackson

Anyone else notice that Corn Elder got some time at outside corner late in the game? Not sure if it was a coaching decision or if it was an injury. Jackson got burned on a few plays today including the TD to Ridley. Not the best day for the rookie.

I haven't seen anything but promising performances from DJack so far.  Yes, he's made some mistakes . . . he is a rookie, we need to expect that.  I noticed a couple times he took bad angles in run support today, and his leverage wasn't the best on the TD to Ridley.  But again . . . rookie.

The PI today was complete horse crap though.

    Man, I love me some Jackson. The kid is willing to stick his nose in there and make a tackle. Which, I memory serves, was the biggest concern with Huddles after the draft. Was he too small to tackle? I guess not. lol

 

    For a second game rook? I liked what I saw. I am comfortable with our 2 main CBs. Yup.

Even though it was his fault, the chase down tackle was something. This man is FAST.

 

    I have a different feeling on that. First, he did his job, by cutting off the edge, and turning the RB back up field. Mayo got washed, so there was no one there to clean up the play. And yeah, the chase down was cool to watch.

 

    With that said. I truly believe that when Jackson shot up to set the edge, he got there quicker than he though he would. He kinda went wider than maybe he should have. He maybe could have taken a more direct path to the edge. Where he maybe could have met the RB, and shut down the whole play. But I guess I am just trying to nitpick, trying to make my view sound reasonable. After all, turning the play back up field is his main priority there.

 

    Either way, I would not say that run was on him.
