We need Jackson

[ghz in pittsburgh]

Say what you want about CJ who is electric. But we need Jackson's pounding, especially in the redzone. CJ himself said as much in the post game show. I was a little disappointed of the last offensive series when they failed to convert 3rd and 2. I thought a quick throw to the lone receiver had a better chance as the corner was backing off too much.

They got to take a close look at Brooks now they have a few extra days at hand. Rogers is simply too easy to be beaten.

I also felt that the D-line kind of got a little tired to the end. I know it's a Thursday night game and in our scheme, the D linemen have to do a lot. Hopefully Kelsay can play next week which now looks to be a tough game at Indy.

Fred can give you better interior running. Won't bust the long ones but he'll take 4-5 yards.

McIntyre missed his block on that third and short, Hairston made a **** block as well.

And in other news...Tashard Choice is useless.

Re: We need Jackson

I thought it was pretty gutless not to just chuck the ball to Da Jones either on that 3rd and 1.

If it would of been 3rd and 17 Gailey would of dialed up the perfect play to pick up those 2 yards.

I agree, Rogers has to be sat down and let's see what Brooks can do.

Re: We need Jackson

I'm sure if Fitz saw the DB backup presnap, he would have audibled. But as soon as Fitz looked over and saw press, he proceeded with the run, which is the right call. I just wish Fitz would have double checked, since that would have been an easy 1st down, and possible a TD if he breakes a tackel.

His presnap adjustments use to be something I thought he was good at, but lately he seems to be making some bad decisions.

Re: We need Jackson

We need Jackson on the bench used mainly to spell Spiller. Choice sucks. Spiller just showed he's just fine in handling full game starter carries.

Spiller had 22 carries. Choice had 6. I'd rather see Spiller get 18-20 with Jackson getting 10-12.

FJ's presence was definitely missed last night.

Hairston looked like **** most of the game.

RT is a need.

Honestly, the only piece I missed was the competent backup when Spiller went out. Choice is a huge downgrade. Freddy brings a leadership piece as well.
