But they all average like 20 carries a game alone. My point is, Jones isn't even getting 20 carries a game. His touches combined between carries and catches are below all those guys on a weekly basis. That's what I'm trying to say. Dalvin Cook has only had 4 games this year with less than 20 carries Derrick Henry has only had 3 games this year with less than 20 carries and nothing below 18 McCaffery has only played 3 games this year but no less than 18 carries in any game Maybe the wording I'm using isn't right but know what I'm trying to say. Jones should be getting the amount of carries these guys get alone week to week before catches even come into play. Jones has only surpassed 20 total touches once this season. Those guys are guaranteed to surpass 20 every week. Maybe not 25 which they have still done a lot but over 20 is consistent

Again, I guess I have to be specific. All of those guys get between 25-30 touches EVERY SINGLE WEEK. Is that better?

Wrong. Derrick Henry, Dalvin Cook, Christian McCaffery (when healthy) and Elliott all get those touches on a game by game basis. Try again

This season in each game he has had 20 touches 22 touches 18 touches 20 touches 13 touches 20 touches 18 touches 14 touches 18 touches He should be getting anywhere between 25-30 touches consistently and he doesn't

My point exactly. The higher volume in touches shows that he puts up elite numbers if given the chance. He doesn't get those amount of touches every game consistently.

The amount that they run the ball in a game is fine. But let's just say they have a game where they choose to run 30 times. In that case Jones should be getting 20 of the carries while Jamaal Williams should be getting 10. Not 15 and 15. The amount they throw and run in a game is fine. But the carries that they do do should be more in favor of Jones. I can't tell you how many times I would watch a 15 play drive for the Packers and Aaron Jones isn't on the field once. In New Orleans for example, you will never see an entire 15 play drive without Kamara on the field at all

Williams is producing because he gets more touches than he should be getting. Aaron Jones has the capability of being a top 5 back in this league if the Packers made him a bell cow back like he should be. I've seen Jones have multiple 3 TD and even a 4 TD game doing things a lot of other RBs in this game can't

Well having Aaron Rodgers also has to do with that. I never once said they were doing it wrong. The amount that they run the ball is fine. It's just that Jones should be getting more of those carries over Jamaal Williams. That's all I'm trying to say. Never once did I say they were handling balance of run and pass the wrong way but thanks for making assumptions and putting words in my mouth

Ok starting RBs in the past USED to get over 300 carries a season. My bad. The point is, he is severely underutilized. His carries to Jamaal Williams should be more of like 17 or 18 carries a game with Jamaal as a backup getting maybe around 6 or 7 tops. And he should be getting targeted more in the passing game. He is not gettinf the touches he should. The GB backfield is literally identical to how the Rams treat Henderson and Malcolm Brown. Although, unlike those two guys in LA, Jones is clearly the better back of the two in GB. I'm not the only one who talks about how underused he is. There are articles all over the internet from people who will say the same thing. There isn't a game in New Orleans where you will see only Latavius Murray out there for every play of a drive and no Kamara at all. That's the point I'm trying to make

Most starting RBs get over 300 carries a season easily. I watch Packers games and he splits carries with Jamaal Williams. There are multiple drives a game where Williams is in and doesn't come out at all. He is way underutilized. He should be used like a McCaffery, Elliott, Kamara and all those guys. He doesn't get enough touches. Plain and simple. He should be getting just carries wise at least 15 to 20 carries a game. He is lucky to get that in just touches

Most RBs have 450 touches a season. If you watched GB games you would see he is severely underused in that offense. He averages about 15 touches a game. He should be getting 25 carries alone and he's not

Jones is clearly the better player when he plays. Williams shouldn't be playing at the same level because he shouldn't be getting as many opportunities as he is. Jones should be getting 25 carries a game in that backfield

Yeah, his ability to play out wide in 4 or 5 WR sets is something that most other RBs can't do. Which is all the more reason why I would love to have him here

I agree with everything you said as far as him being a multi dimensional weapon but how many RBs are making that kind of money in the league right now? I think Elliott's deal was $96 million for 6 years which averages out to $16 million a season and Elliott is pretty decent out of the backfield. Kamara's contract extension was 5 years at $75 million but I honestly can't see any team paying Jones more than $40 to $50 million on a 4 to 5 year deal.

He is underutilized. He averages 10 to 12 carries a game and barely gets thrown to anymore like he did last year. If you watch a Green Bay game they will have Jamaal Williams on the field for an entire 95 yard drive at times. If the Packers stopped having such a hard on for Jamaal Williams, Jones would get 25 carries a game like he should be

That's because of Matt LaFleur. Not because of Jones

I don't think it will cost $15 million a year to get Jones. That's Ezekiel Elliot money. He's not Ezekiel Elliot but he's very good. I honestly don't think any team will pay him that. I'm thinking more in possibly the $8 to $9 million dollar range on a 4 year deal for him. This offense is a RB away from being exactly where it needs to be

He's a 2021 free agent, severely underused in Green Bay, an excellent receiver out of the backfield with good hands and needs to have a lead back role. Just turned 26 on Dec 2nd so we can get a solid 4 years out of him at least. He has more rushing TDs than any other RB the last 2 seasons. There is absolutely no way that I can see this guy choosing to resign in GB. He would be stupid to do that. Granted, Moss and Singletary are here. I like both but I'd rather have Aaron Jones over Singletary. I also wouldn't mind sets with two of our backs on the field at the same time. I read an article of the top 5 places for him next year and all of the Patriots, Dolphins and Jets were on the list. I'd rather not have him in the division unless it's in our backfield. What does everyone think? I would love the idea of Aaron Jones being here

Can someone tell me how to change the title?

But it's pretty funny

Gotta be the all reds for Sunday Night Football next week I would think

Ahhhh, Beth Mowins season. The best time of the year

I feel like if they ever had Dick Jauron mic'd up when he was here that anytime we did something bad he would go up to the players and say "it's ok, don't worry about it. It's tough to win in this league" lol

Too bad that Candlestick is no longer around. It would have been sweet to play this one game there

You're depressing
