He looked to be the better of all the backs the Saints had out there tonight.
Does he become the primary carrier next week?

I don't think it really matters until the oline get's their shite straight.

he had a solid game tonite IMO

Pittsburgh is never an easy team to run on but he gave it a good effort.

Betts always seemed to frick up by fumbling or running the wrong play. Jones has been here less time and doesn't do that. Once Reggie and Pierre get back Betts should definitely get cut before Jones.

He looked very quick to me.

I never was crazy about Jones even coming out of college but I will say, he's the only back we have right now who can make people miss. Im not saying he's great at it but, Betts can't make anyone miss, and Ivory often seeks out contact on some plays, and other plays it seems he's not seeing where he's going. He ran up the back of a lineman at least twice tonight and neither time did he look like he had to.

yeah, and even tho there was no running room he fell forward
Ivory looked like a 2 year old with no control running into a wall
Betts style of running is to just try and run away for no gain
Not sure about Jones' pass blocking, but he looked to be an able body receiver as well.
Lynch ain't doin shite in Seattle, maybe the "kid" is not as bad as everybody thought.

he ran very well tonight...great vision when there wasn't much to work with

That 15 yd penalty he drew was sad. Show a little control JJ!
Posted on 11/1/10 at 7:38 am to Iona Fan Man
yes
i said it before
I'd like him to see him get more carries
he runs better than Ivory and Betts, IMO

if that play gets called correctly we're not talking about this today

His running style is similar to Bush. I almost confuse them in uniform. Julius actually stays north south better which could really help him fit this system in the long run. I hope he stays around and they try to develop him.

against that D he should have received most of the carries....ivory was useless

The 3 backs that are sharing the load right now have had their games.. Betts had a good game or two and has slumped off.. Same with Ivory. I think DCs are picking up on who is running well and zeroing in on them because they know the best back will get the most touches. Ivory couldn't hardly get anywhere last night.. JJ on the other hand looked alright. When Bush and PT get back, Betts will need to find employment elsewhere. Ivory and JJ will probably duke it out for that remaining 3rd spot.

Jones might be beating betts out of a job.

I dont think we are going to put much stock into developing a 29 year old cast-off RB....
