I have bad mouthed Jenkins so much but he has been such a huge factor in the defensive turnaround

any safety looks really bad with an anemic pass rush
yup.
He has saved our arse 2 or 3 times this year. He has done that since he has been here. His career is full of game winning plays. He has had plenty of bad games but his huge games are always overlooked.

Thank you. I'm not denying he been crucial to our turnaround, but the fact still remains he is primarily a hit first, tackle second defender.

Trey Wingo just said Jenkins deserves some votes for Defensive Player of the Year.
Just off the top of my head I'd say Aldon Smith's performance last night
was more impressive than anything Jenkins has done and will probably ever do in his career.

Either my computer is broken, or you are terrible at the whole posting pictures on here thing.
Can anyone else see his pic?
This is how i picture most arguments between us:

outside of maybe 4 plays, has he really been that crucial to our turnaround or he's been crucial because of those 4 plays?

I like Jenkins and he's been one of my favorites since we drafted him as well. There's no denying he generally doesn't wrap up tackles. I think if as the dline improves so will he. A lot is asked of him with Roman's bad coverage skills and lack of pressure up front.

But we shouldn't kid ourselves. He's not a reliable tackler and has taken some really, really bad routes to the ball/ball carrier. I'm going to give him credit, though, that he doesn't give up and he plays to :00. I admire that, but it doesn't cloud my judgement of him.

Wingo is suffering from Blake Griffin syndrome. He sees the highlights on sportscenter, but doesn't look to see that he's shooting 32% from the floor.
Jenkins has had some really great highlight plays and he's been burned a few times too. Just like every other saftey in the NFL.
I like Jenkins because he is a starting quality FS in the NFL with the ability to play a little bit of CB from time to time.

He is a terrible tackler and always seems to take a bad angle. But he has been on fire the past few weeks so hopefully he can keep it up because if so he could be a fantastic player

defensive player of the year he is definitely not, but he has changed the face of quite a few games in Nola.

But how's his tackling mouth? C'mon bro.
Posted on 11/20/12 at 3:04 pm to whodatfan
alright I'll admit its suspect.
Look, I'm playing devils advocate for a player who doesn't totally deserve all the hate.

He doesn't tackle with any kind of form, he just lunges at people and tries to knock them on their arse to tackle them. It causes whiffs.
