I was in heaven watching Thomas Jones dish out some punishment on that soft ass defense. Absolutely loved his intensity level, celebration and specifically the stiff arm. Nice combo in the run game. Stretches with Leon, slamming it in with Jones. I likes.
He's among the best backs in league history when it comes to utilizing the stiff arm. That play yesterday was very Earl Campbellesque. Click here to view some quality stiff arms from the Tyler Rose. Check out the run at the 1:05 mark. That's my all-time favorite. He literally rammed Rams linebacker Isiah Robertson before stiff arming a defensive back and then having his jersey ripped apart. (Tearaway jerseys were eliminated one or two years later.)
Thanks for the post GM - this style of running gets me fired up. The team needs to feed off this type of playing style starting in the trenches. Time to get mean and fight our way out of this corner. I'm sick of these mother fuckin snakes on this mother fuckin plane.
Tj's a monster. I haven't been a fan at all of the playcalling the first three weeks, but the staff does a really good job of cycling in him and Leon. Keep them both fresh for as long as possible.
