Obviously we'll have to see what MRI's and injury reports say.
Other good news was that Cunningham and Scott seemed to both play pretty well.
Jones may have long arms and all, but to me Ninko, Cunningham, and Trevor appear much more explosive. Jones always looks like he's slow off the line. Don't get me wrong, once he gets anywhere near the opposing QB, game is over for that QB. But off the line, he's missing some explosiveness. JMO.
Is anything being reported locally on Jones' injury?

Like the majority of us, I've never rushed a passer or blocked a rusher beyond the flag football level. With that said:
It isn't always obvious that the first attacker has the advantage. Starting a split-second late but going in a different way than the blocker is leaning can work to your advantage.

Are you sure you're watching the right guy? Jones probably has the best explosion off the LOS vs. anybody else on the team.
How shall I put it.... the guy has the torque, but lacks the speed. He's got the torque of a semi-trailer, but lacks the speed of a Ferrari.
Watch Ninko - Now that's a fast guy off the line.

Danny, Ninkovich is the guy wearing #50. Jones is the guy wearing #95.
Hope that clears it up for you.
