ammo posted:DH13 posted:MLF is doing with Jones what MM tried to do with Montgomery.
No, it is not. Montgomery was a WR who wanted to play RB and MM did not have the balls to say no. Jones is a RB that happens to be very very good at swinging out of the backfield and catching passes.
Sure it was. Doesn't matter what 88 and 33 (interesting #s) skill sets were/are. MM wanted to use 88 as an "X" factor he could use all over the formation. Which he did try. Problem is 88 never solidified himself as a consistent running threat which is half of the whole "dual threat" proposition for such a player. Jones, above showing dual threat skills, has the added dimension/speed of being able to go the distance on any given play. I think that is what terrifies defenses the most.
