    Good read on Jones coming back to the team and the effect it has had on the defense.

    Maybe Dion should have been training with Alexander too.

    with the paucity of really good safeties in AFC, I think Reshad is playing good enough for the probowl despite missing 4 games.

    He's ineligible because of his suspension.

    I'm a little suspicious that Jones didn't slip in 2013 after getting paid, and this year the suspension and the things that came from that didn't light a fire under his *** that you'd prefer to be there the entire time.

    I agree with the idea that some linebacker issues caused Jones to be needed away from his best role in '13, but it wasn't the entire nut of his problem.

    can you explain a little more, I'm not sure what your saying? he did seem to slip in 2013, and the suspension has seemed to light a fire under his ***.

    He's accusing Jones of not going after it as hard after his payday last season.

    oh..yeah it makes sense because we can see his level this year compared to last and it doesn't look the same at all.

    I think his mediocre play in '13 was as much as him not working hard as it was a change of what was asked from him. Him being suspended, demoted for pre-season, and questions about his contract have motivated him this year.

    His play is noticeably better than 2013. Maybe he learned an important last year and getting suspended this year. You can't just up to be great. You have to put in the work.
