Jaguars FB Greg Jones Shows Some Fight

The Jacksonville Jaguars were bad on offense yesterday, but that doesn't mean they weren't trying. On a play after a roughing the punter penalty, Jaguars fullback Greg Jones blocked Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Lamar Woodley, who apparently didn't like it. The two then engaged in a wrestling match that saw Greg Jones put Woodley on the ground. I don't know how it started, but I know how it ended. I say this everytime this happens... why would you mess with Greg Jones?!

"I don't know why people messing with Greg," Maurice Jones-Drew told the Florida Times-Union after the game. "I don't understand it, but as long as they keep messing with him, hey, he's going to do his part. He's been a dominating blocker. Obviously he was a little upset. But those guys were competing all day too. It gets a little chippy out there. One guy might win one, one guy might win another, then obviously I don't know who won that one [blocking battle], but when they starting fighting, I knew who won because I was right there with a front-row seat. It was good to see that we won something today."

I think someone got me wrong yesterday

when I called Jones an “animal”. I guess I should’ve said: “Greg Jones is a BEAST!” My brother always called bad-asses “animals”.

I'd rather be golfing.

I know that some receivers quit on routes

However, this team fought it’s tail off yesterday. After the 1st half I thougt I had picked another MNF against the Titans game to go to, but they put in a 2nd half effort that made me proud to be rocking teal at Heinz field.

Yes sir.....

I was proud of my team yesterday! How was the experience at the game? How were the Steelers fans?

It was a special experience

Looking out at a stadium full of Terrible Towels whipping in the air, gave me chills. Most Steelers fans were very complementary of the Jags and wanted to tell me they thought Gabbert was going to be a good one. I would recommend the trip to everyone, but be prepared to catch heat for wearing teal. Side note: If you travel to an away game, wear teal. I met numerous Jaguar fans who were wearing no Jag gear at all because they didn’t want to get a little trash talk thrown their way.

I wore my teal to the Last Jags Texans game last year in houston.. I got a few JAGS suck but hardley any attention..

I think it would have been different if we had won and not got demolished… Thank you trent edwards and Rashad Jennings, and O-Line..

JUST WIN BABY!!!!!!!!

That quote is hilarious.

“I don’t know who won that one [blocking battle], but when they starting fighting, I knew who won because I was right there with a front-row seat. It was good to see that we won something today.”

Classic.

as someone who follows boxing as much as i follow my jags.. this is freakin awesome! i just googled it and it says they are cousins – in any case, this makes me even more of a fan of Jones.

im sure boxing runs in the family with someone of “Smokin” Joe’s status. makes me think of Jones as even more of a beast.

Jones is a stud. Seeing him up close in person I swear I thought his triceps were going to fall off his arm they were so big. The guy is effing enormous. hardly an ounce of fat just lean muscle. Gotta love mojos comment!

Greg Jones is so awesome. I remember watching him at FSU before his knee injury — he was such a monster. I can’t help but wonder how he would’ve done in the NFL without that injury.

a little blury -

I think it was on a big Deji run in the 3rd or 4th qtr off the left tackle – but was it Jones that came across the backfield and leveled a Steeler? It was like helmet to sternum. One of our guys did it – when I saw it I was like who was that guy…

It was great.

It was a great momentum changer and it changed our attitude. We came in to Heinz field way too timid.
