i dont get anyone saying Jansen has not been a good tackle lately?? He has been as good as anyone. For us to have two probowl caliber bookend tackles is hard to find. Jansen should have made the probowl a year ago. dude played with two broken thumbs and a torn calf. didn't give up a holding penalty all year. Funny how in some threads the talk of the injury to Jansen was devistating, but then people seem to say he isnt' very good.
Record wise, we may be a couple of games better. its hard to say, we'll never know.

Are you serious. He had two thumbs in casts, want to venture a reason as to why he didn't have a holding penalty, maybe because it's nearly impossible to hold without the use of your thumbs? Just an idea....
I'm not denying anything Jansen has done for this team, and he was a great tackle for us for a while. Personally, I don't feel he's going to rebound from his injuries. He was getting worked all preseason and early in games. If you want to bring up "It's only preseason" I'll go ahead and bring up, if he can't beat his man 1v1, what will he do when twists and stunts start becoming involved in the game. If he comes back and plays at a high level, I'll be as happy as anyone. I just don't see it and I like Heyer, but if the coaching staff doesn't like him, our #1 should probably be going for a OT.
