As for Jacobs. I have never watched him play except for that game against the Raiders on Monday night last year, and that is where my opinion of him stemmed from. And he was 20 rushes for 60 yards and one of his runs was for 20 yards, so that made him 19 rushes for 40 yards the rest of the game.
Being that was the only time I have ever seen him play, I was not impressed. I have a very good memory of the Packers games cause I watch them repeatedly between games, and I was not impressed.
But I have watched his highlights and he seems to break a lot of long runs and he sure runs hard on short yardage plays. He may not be as bad as I thought. I am sure Gute and his staff did their due diligence and watched every carry of Jacobs career and know what they are expecting to get from him.
Hopefully it's a lot of those long runs and a lot of converted third and short plays and a whole lot of Super Bowl trophies!
