Not upset at all... just disappointing news. I guess our HC doesn't know football too well as he said JJ was going to make a huge jump in year 2. Can't trust what a coach or player tells you about one of their own.

The St. Louis play was no fluke...speed is no fluke as he could easily do it again. V12 baby.

Looking forward to seeing him get a lot of action tonight! Tolzien's deep balls should be a nice match to his speed. I hope they send him on that nine route and the Sluggo to really see how he can fly against competition.

Sounds like our new #88 makes this whole topic irrelevant.

Janis looked good running fast in a straight line and catching a TD. We know Janis can run fast in a straight line, this isn't exactly news.

Can he run the full route tree? Can he understand the offense? Can he beat press coverage at the line? Can he block downfield in the run game? Can he do all of these things consistently? These are the questions surrounding Janis, not weather he can run past DBs.

Because unless there are certain injuries, I don't see him getting on the field with the offense too much just like the 5th WR last year (also Janis) didn't see the field too much even though the 4th (and at times the 3rd) WR(s) struggled last year.

But if he can be more helpful on STs more, he might see the field more.

This thread began with the usual suspects ragging on Janis. I'm really glad that he scratched the surface of his potential just enough to shut up the detractors - a little bit anyway.
