On the plus side, he's smart and tough which go a long way in that spot. The biggest issue I've got with Montgomery at the moment is that Montgomery showed me absolutely zero "make you miss" ability this year. What the hell good is a scat back with mediocre wheels who goes down on first contact? he's actually surprisingly good at breaking tackles with power, but not with quickness. It's weird since he was a pretty dang good returner in college and early in his career. Also think Aaron Jones does have some pass catching and route ability, and it's stuff we saw at UTEP.

If Jones is ever even an average NFL target out of the backfield, I'd be surprised. The guy has some skills, but even if he does, he's not in any position to show it.

Why not try to get him the ball in space as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazrimiv Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 As the RB situation develops, I am expecting more and more for Williams to be the guy who eventually ends up with the pseudo RB1 role in a shared backfield. Williams just seems to be more in line with the type of RB MM has preferred during his time in GB. Monty at RB was an intriguing idea, but I think the fans vision of how Monty would be used was much different than what MM had in mind. Now that Williams and Jones should be sharing the load down the stretch, I don't see MM going back to Monty in any significant way next season.

deltarich87 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I think Jones is the better RB and I think he should be RB1 next season. Love what Williams is doing the past few weeks but Jones offers more explosiveness/big play potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he can hang, not that he'll get the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha21 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Jamaal Williams looks great; Aaron Jones looks great. I feel very comfortable going forward with these two backs. It would be awesome if they could turn into a Freeman-Coleman combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't allow a QB to sit back there and pick you apart. We got some sacks yesterday because Tampa's O line is a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
