I'm a careful consumer and I regard jerseys as something I would not want to waste money on by making a flavor of the month type of decision. For years, I've wanted a jersey but just couldn't really decide. I went back and forth on so many players that are now gone and a couple players that are still here, like Kyle Williams. I've decided I'm going with a Freddie jersey and I will wear it long after he retires. While he hasn't broken any records and isn't considered a superstar, I think he deserves a place on the Wall. For the great professional he is, where he came from and how he got here, I will always respect him.

Here's to you, Freddie!!! I hope you get the season you deserve more than most, if not anyone!

Fellow Coe College alum Marv lives in Chicago and was at the game. Well into his 80's, I thought of him when Freddie made that play. Like us, he must have been thrilled and proud as hell !

Same reasoning why Fred Jax is only the 2nd jersey I've had since the 90s (the other was Lee Evans).

I agree. He deserves to be on the Wall of Fame.

Freddie stole Chris Conte's lunch money. Didn't take long for F-Jax's patented stiff-arm to go viral today.

Freddie Jackson is the NFL equivalent of Bernard "The Alien" Hopkins.

A 33 year old RB playing at his level is like watching Bernard Hopkins continue to unify belts as he approaches his 50th birthday.

Freddie's not just the man. He's a freak of nature with a stiff arm from hell.

He'll be on the Bills HOF someday. And judging by his current level of play, that might not be for a while.

Freddie is legendary. The undisputed king of WNY.

I'm still sad he got injured in 2011. He was on his way to leading the nfl in total yards and finally getting the recognition he deserved.

He's the kind of guy that creates a team culture.

I can't or else I'd pop like 2 million boners and die of a heart attack.

If we had 53 guys with his football IQ, his toughness, his work ethic, and his unbelievable conditioning, we'd win every Super Bowl from now until eternity.

My football buddies and I were talking about that at the bar today.

None of them are Bills fans but they all consider F-Jax the most underrated player in the game 4 years running.

He was well on his way to the rushing title before he got sidelined by injuries in 2011.

Would have been awesome to see him snag it and become a household name.

I'm going to go ahead and make it official: he's my favorite Bills player of all time.

At 33 his legs might be slowing down... but it looks like the old man strength kicked in.

This made my day more worthwhile.

Stole his lunch money, indeed.

99% of the other RB's in the league would have been happy to run out of bounds between the 15 and 10...Freddie smelled 6, and the opportunity to punish somebody.

They should play the tape of that run every morning before practice and every afternoon at the end of them, and every week before a game.

Watching that brings a tear to my eye. It's so beautiful.

He really is special. Such a great attitude on and off the field. Hands down, years from now he's the only player I'll have any emotions about from the post SB teams through to this year. Hoping he stays healthy to go out on top.

On a post game show, Rat Bastard Rodney Harrison said "somebody tackle that man." as Freddie was running on the highlights.

Sunday was not a good day for Rodney with the Pats* losing.

It's funny because I've been hearing "Jackson is too old" for about three years from most fantasy football experts. Every year is "the year the tires will come off" for Freddie.

Yet the prophecy remains unfulfilled.

F-Jax is still a stalwart in PPR formats. He's always good for a steady double digit performance.

Yes. But did she model it? And it alone? That would make it more memorable.

I nicknamed Fred Jackson "Heart and Soul" during his first year with the Bills.

He truly is and the epitome of a great football player.

Just brings it every game, every play.

Can't really think of any Bills' player that for that matter.

I think most players should be honored that us fans wear jerseys with their name on it.
But for Fred I feel honored that I wear a jersey with his name on it.
That is really how I feel.

Jackson's one of the most underrated Bills players of all time. Just imagine what he would have done if he had been here when he was 23 and been given an opportunity to start right away.

I drool at the thought.

He is the man.

I try and get him every year on my teams and usually hes avaqilable later than he should be and a steal.

I heard Colton Schmidt habitually uses the express checkout lane with more than 10 items.

I heard Scott Chandler was riding with Eric Wood to the game & they were running late with all the traffic so they cut in line.......scumbags.
