Can someone explain the Bills fascination with Taiwan Jones? He’s a one demential player on special teams. He’s got little use as running back and Beane continues to talk about versatility, can’t figure out why he’s still here

 

 

He's extremely tough, fast and a captain

 

He's also able to return kicks and play all sptms 

 

He can play rb, wr and slot wr in a pinch. He has also play cb in an emergency. He did for one year with the raiders. He also runs 4.33

  

 

He's basically one of the best special teams players in the NFL

Fascinated by one of the very best special teamers in the league? Gee I don’t know.

Get outta here with your "facts!" This thread is for whining about how our 3rd string OG is not an all-pro. 😁

None.  Rex had his own process!

 

 

Correct.

 

Step 1) ask prospective players & employees to take off their shoes

 

Step 2) pour gas station nacho cheese sauce on their feet

 

Step 3) large inhale through the nose, then decide their fate. 

 

That legendary process is responsible for about... 1.7% of the team's overall success today, so don't ever forget what Rex Ryan did for you!

@GunnerBill is suggesting that ONLY the rams FO did enough last offseason to put their team in position to win a super bowl.  I think that’s incorrect.  Do you agree GB?  Or do you think that multiple teams were in position to win the SB with the rosters they had, but just didn’t get it done for various reasons?

You very obviously have a point here. If you could play the postseason scenario out 1000 times would the Rams win the Superbowl every time, of course not. Maybe they would win with the highest frequency, maybe not.

 

Winning the Superbowl does not prove you are the best team. Again: winning the Superbowl does not prove you are the best team. It is a combination of skill and luck.

 

GunnerBill thinks like a coach and their job is to disregard luck because there's no value in thinking about that. Good coaches and players focus all their energy on the parts of it that are in their control.

That's Rex's idea of a GD snack

When was the last time Jones played any non ST position for this team? Other teams used him on offense. We don’t. That’s one of my biggest issues 

OBD used Steve Tasker as a ST only guy for his first 9 years .. we didn't complain about that

Come on, Jones is a great ST guy, but he has never been a good RB.  His one play against the Bills in the playoff game was his best RB

play in like 6-7 years.

 

He's great for the team at what he does.

There were no message boards back then, at least not that anyone but real geeks used. Sports fans haven't changed, it's just that we have the ability to make asses out of ourselves (semi) publicly now. I'm sure if there were messages boards back in the 1925 the Yankees' board would have had a 100+ page thread on Wally Pipp vs Lou Gehrig.

doesn’t work like that. If you’re a premier special team player your ability on offense (or defense) is just a bonus. Jones is, without a doubt, a premier special team player. Case closed.

 

Hodgins, for example, was trying to make the team as the 4th or 5th  wideout. His value is primarily offense. But you have to contribute to ST to make it as a skill position player that far down the depth chart.
