Whats ya'll's feelings on Desean Jackson. Im not specifically an Eagles fan (actually im a Jags fan) but I like Jackson, enjoy watching an excitingplayer that NFL defenses cant stop. Got into a debate at work about the guy and wanted to see what some of NT's 2 cents was.
Guy at my job : "He's so good, but also such a piece of crap. You can tell he's going to be a problem, like a TO type of guy. He didn't stoptalking for like 30 mins after his long TD reception"
Me: Piece of crap? That guy is awesome, he hasn't showed any signs of being a diva. He has made a few boneheaded plays but you don't hear from him thatway. Which long one? The 72 yard punt return or the 60 yard reception to tie the record for most plays from scrimmage over 50 yards in a season? I don'tknow a receiver in the NFL that wouldnt talk after that and after coming back from a concussion.
Guy at my job: He hasn't had the chance to be a diva because he doesn't have that gigantic contract yet, AND Donovan McNabb is keeping him in line fornow, which is why you don't hear from him...yet. He also has Drew Rosenhaus as an agent, and he makes a spectacle every time he scores a TD. Yes he hadthat stupid play where he dropped the ball before scoring that TD last year because he was all wrapped up in himself and what he was going to do to celebrate.I'm sure there's other things I haven't seen or heard about him that would support his "piece of crap" status I'm giving him. Mark mywords, he'll be a problem child in the NFL.
When I said "TD reception" I meant "TD reception".
As for WRs that would not talk for 30 mins after a TD reception, Andre Johnson, Reggie Wayne, Larry Fitzgerald, Wes Welker, Bernard Berrian. Those are just afew of some of the best WRs in the NFL that wouldn't do that, I'm sure 90% of WRs in the NFL wouldn't, but you don't hear about those guys asoften. Also, a concussion is no big deal, it's part of playing in the NFL and the main reason people in the NFL have such low life expectancies.
Don't get me wrong, he's a fantastic player, as I mentioned in my original email when I said "man he's so good" so the issue isn'this ability, just that he'll be one of those guys everyone hates like TO and Randy Moss when he was on the Vikings and Raiders, and now his true colors arecoming out again on the Pats since they're not the best in the league any more.
Me: Bernard Berrian??
Do you guys agree or disagree on Jackson becoming a problem child in the NFL??
