Did Jones Have A Good Game?
I keep on reading how great of a game that Thomas Jones had. When you look at his total numbers, it surely looks like he had a good game. But, when you break it down, it doesn't look as great:
1st Quarter = 82 yards
2nd Quarter = 14 yards
3rd Quarter = 13 yards
4th Quarter = 21 yards
Total Game = 130 yards
Carries = 24
Average = 5.42 yards per carry
Now, if you take away the 36 yard run which was basically all mistackles, then:
1st Quarter = 46 yards
Total Carries becomes 23
Total Yards = 94
Average = 4.09 yards per carry which is OK
But break it down AFTER the 1st quarter. He had a pathetic 34 yards rushing in the 2ne half and in the last 3 quarters, he ran for 48 yards.
So, overally, it looks like he had a BIG game but when you look at the numbers, it's really not that impressive.
