Around SBN: Indy 500: 'Greatest Spectacle In Racing' Set For Sunday

Brad Jones Adds To His Tackle Stats, Rodgers Calls The Plays, And Clifton Is The Starter

Brad Jones takes down runaway fan - JSOnline. The complete video is at the link. I'm not sure why Brad Jones decided to stop that fan on the field, but it made for a great picture. While the defense struggled, Jones had his best game since 2009 with 5 tackles and 1 sack.

Rodgers had a say in Packers' victory - JSOnline. During the first half, Aaron Rodgers could be seen on the sidelines wearing a headset with a laminated play sheet in his hand. Tom Silverstein reported that Rodgers was talking with Matt Flynn while they ran the no-huddle early in the game. It was a bit surprising to see Flynn running the no-huddle to start off the game. Talk about taking the training wheels off early. I didn't see Rodgers wearing the headset during the second half.

Chad Clifton of Green Bay Packers to get starting job back in playoffs - ESPN. He looked good, not great, while playing about 25 snaps against the Lions. Based on what I saw on Sunday, I'm not surprised he got his starting job back.

He just...

won’t.go.away! BRAD JONES! I thought he did an admirable job filling in for Aaron Kampman (way back when!) in 09 when Kampman IR’ed on us. He bulked up in the offseason of 09/10 and last year, he was injured and never regained his form…

I say BENCH Walden and start Jones! Maybe the kid has found some late season magic a la Walden last year.

Scared about how Bulaga and Clifton will do…they been banged up, so we’ll see…But if McCarthy wan’ts to go with clifton, who am I to argue?

In McCarthy, we Trust
In Thompson, we Worship

Looking forward to the Packers three-peating and visiting President Ron Paul at the White House in 2013

Either he is going down your throat

…or going in the other way. It’s up to you.

I'm not the one who keeps Ron Pauling my signature!

But okay, just because you all seem to crave my attention on this issue… I’ll change MY signature too and see how you like it.

So he has a signature about the Packers and Ron Paul

Big deal. You don’t need to make an issue about it.

This isn't the first time this has happened on Acme though

And it seems the Ron Paul people are the ones who keep trying to be cute about it. Or maybe its the same guy. I just know that I don’t come on here campaigning for anyone and neither should anyone else.

Until we get rid of all political campaign signatures on this board, mine will say that Ron Paul is into little boys and libertarian is actually French for pedophile! No really. Srs biz.

Except that a signature =/= campaigning

It’s a harmless little line. Something that any mature person would let slide.

He is right.

It’s not the first time he’s engaged in personal attacks towards people that he made assumptions about.

I agree Adam maybe overreacted...

But the fact that a POLITICian’s name is in his sig does kind of go against the whole “no politics” rule.

There's no maybe about it

I’ll leave it to those that have been here longer than I have to decide if his signature violated the “no politics” rule.

December, 7 1941 may be a day that lives in infamy, but December 6, 2011 is a day that will live in AWESOMENESS!!! The day I became part owner of the Green Bay Packers!

who the hell is Ron Paul?

Brad Jones

Maybe, he should get a shot in the playoffs. you hate going into the playoffs with a position up for grabs, but that seems to be the way it is. He doesn’t excel at any one thing, but he seems to play solidly in all areas required of him.

Fan on field

That video of Jones tackling the fan doesn’t do justice to what happened. I was at the game and watching it live was cool. From my seat it looked like Jones body slammed the guy right into the turf.

by holsteinhill on Jan 2, 2012 2:55 PM CST reply actions  

Clifton

It was obvious at the start of the game that he was rusty but by the end of the first quarter it looked like he was settled in and holding his own without any problems.

by holsteinhill on Jan 2, 2012 2:57 PM CST reply actions  

Probably not a wise thing for Jones to do..

its dangerous to the player because, although this kid looked pretty harmless, you never know if these people are drunk or carrying a knife or something. Let security handle it. Also, not smart because the kid could get hurt and bring a lawsuit. Usually you see this in baseball games and the players normally just let the people run around until security gets them unless the person is directly running at a player.

Why
I’m not sure why Brad Jones decided to stop that fan on the field

Same reason Mike Curtis did?

Curtis respected the game of football, and abhorred anyone who didn’t — whether that was a player or a coach, or even a fan. Case in point: the celebrated instance when Curtis knocked senseless a drunken fan who had wandered onto the field in old Memorial Stadium in Baltimore. The fan had grabbed the football and started running with it. Curtis would have none of that. He took a few steps, built himself some momentum, and crashed his entire body into that of the scrawny fan, who went down like he’d been shot. But, as a testament to the dude’s inebriation, he could be seen grinning and laughing, as if he was proud that he’d just been leveled by the great Mike Curtis.

lol

he didn’t even tackle him. He just laid his ass out and was all like, “Yeah. When you wake up, just walk your happy ass back over to the sidelines and behave.”

Brad Jones

He probably wanted to show capers that he is a sure tackler and deserves more playing time. Hitting a kid is bad, but hitting your girlfriend may be worse (ohhh I joke, I joke). Nah, but I’m sure the kid loved it, I’d rather be tackled by a player than some security guy. Get that pic of it happening autographed, priceless.
