So as you know, Matt and I have a bet. Maurice Jones Drew vs. Brandon Marshall. Matt had a huge advantage this week since Mo-Drew was playing and Marshall was suspended. So, did Matt take advantage?
Maurice Jones-Drew rushed five times for 13 yards and added four receptions for 37 yards against the Titans in Week 1. Jones-Drew couldn't create against a swarming Titans defense, and the Jags actually abandoned the run in the second half.
As you know, in our league that's only worth 1 point. No wonder Matt was so bent on changing the scoring. But wait, it gets better!
RG Uche Nwaneri, expected to fill in for the injured Maurice Williams, took a shot to the left knee Sunday and will undergo X-Rays on Monday. With the loss of Williams, Richard Collier, Vince Manuwai, and now possibly Nwaneri, the Jaguars' offensive line is extremely depleted. Expect them to audition some free agents this week. Fred Taylor, Maurice Jones-Drew, and David Garrard have to be fairly nervous.
And the icing on the cake...
Greg Jones caught three passes for 13 yards and a touchdown in Week 1. Jones benefited with a one-yard touchdown catch when Maurice Jones-Drew was ruled just shy of the end zone on the previous play.
That's my favorite part. I swear, it never gets old when someone gets tackled on the one!
