The Jacksonville Jaguars need more from Maurice Drew and Dennis Northcutt

Blogged under Bloglockers, Front Page, General by dawgpounded on Friday 5 October 2007 at 10:10 am

Maurice Drew is off to a slow start for the Jaguars.  He has carried the football 33 times for only 100 yards (3.0 ypc) this season and he has also caught 6 passes for 56 yards (9.3 avg).  The Jags need him to be a bigger part of the offense and that will likely happen soon as he is way too talented to be playing like this.  He has done an outstanding job on kickoffs returns however as he has 160 yards on 5 returns (32.0 avg).  The Jaguars didn’t expect Dennis Northcutt to be as good as he has been as a receiver as he leads the team with 11 receptions for 169 yards (15.4 avg).  They did expect him to be a game changer as a punt returner and he hasn’t come through yet.  He has returned 2 punts for 13 yards (6.5 avg) as he has been fair catching the ball a lot.  Look for Northcutt to pick it up soon as a punt returner as he is one of the best ones in the entire NFL.  And when he starts giving the Jags an edge in field position….the offense will play better.
