Jackson brushes off Jenkins trash talk

PrintEarlier in the week Cowboys second year corner Mike Jenkins felt the need to trash talk the Eagles pro bowl second year WR DeSean Jackson. If you need a refresher on what Jenkins said, check it out here(also the bonus 300+ comment discussion on how great Cowboys fans think he is!) Obviously, all the local reporters ran to Jackson with the quote.
"If that's how he's feeling than that's how he's feeling," Jackson said today. "I don't get caught up in things like that. I'm not going to entertain this. I got a job to go out there and make plays, which I'm going to do. I don't think nobody's going to stop me from doing that. I'm not going to make it a bigger deal than it already is. I have what I need inside of me to get me going for the game. That's all I care about. I don't feel I need to talk or relay messages through the media."
Video of the comments probably went something like this.

This response is so hardcore ...
… it’s better than trash talk. It’s
1) You’re not on my level, so I’m not worried about you, even though that’s not at all what I just said
2) Fits perfectly on the Birds, a team that values character and Philly, a city that values going hard in the games over anything
3) Means his head is in the right place. It’s not about what you say, it’s about what you do.
It might not make a lick of difference for Sunday’s game, but I think it bodes well.

"I have what I need inside of me to get me going for the game"
This is so “gets it” right here.

Couldn’t agree more, that line caught my eye too.
Very mature response from DeSean, which I honestly didn’t expect given his flashy on-field antics. I love the fact that he can fire himself up enough for a game without having to create a beef with opposing players. This response exhumes nothing but confidence.

and to think coming out of the draft ppl were talking about DJacks maturity saying it was a problem
To me the Eagles are like that girlfriend that pisses u off, then u hate her, but the next morning you wake up and remember that thing u love so much about her

in all seriousness i kinda think he was a lil immature up to the point when he dropped the ball on the one before he entered endzone. i think that was his “o shit i need to grow up moment” maybe thats just me tho
Yes I have vegeta from dragon ball z in my picture....combined with eagles logo my picture is badass enough to cure cancer
If yall need to make up ...
locker room motivation for this game, then yall are in trouble. You fans sound scared of the Cowboys!
Michael Jenkins said the same thing Jackson said. But you all twist things how you want to. Jackson said, “I am gonna make plays”. Jenkins, “I am gonna stop them from making plays” ….. Wooo whoooo BIG DEAL!!
You are all in for a looooong day Sunday, if you gotta make crap up to be motivated. And its Philly with the #2 seed on the line!

What the hell are you talking about? Did you even read the post?
Your boy Jenkins is the one who decided to go through the media and make comments. Now I agree with you that Jenkins comments are that serious, but why even make comments in the first place unless you are trying to hype yourself up.
You have it all backwards man.

Go to dallascowboys.com
and check the Jenkins interview for yourself. He was answering a reporters question and never made ANY comment to disrespect the Eagles. He was saying that he is not letting anyone past him when his assignement is to not let anyone past him.
by spadesking131313 on Dec 31, 2009 4:22 PM EST up reply actions
Yeah, and I agreed with you there. The comments weren’t really a slap in the face, but then again why even make them? He could have just gone about his business preparing for sunday like DeSean intended to. I guess some players just need to pump themselves up more than others…

Every player ...
gives interviews. Most players say things associated with their own team being successful, otherwise why play? Jenkins didn’t say anything disrespectful. Some of the fans here want “locker room” material and it aint there. Look at what Chad Ochocinco is saying about Revis. Its no where close to that.
by spadesking131313 on Dec 31, 2009 4:36 PM EST up reply actions
Yeah every player gives interviews, and 99.9% of them are ridiculously conservative. If you choose to step outside the lines and make guarantees against a top flight receiver then do so at your own risk.

any time you make the statement “It’s not happening to us… PERIOD” that is some pretty heavy trash talk. Its a guarantee

just watch the game, don’t talk shit during the week, it makes u look like a dumbass if u lose at the end of the week, and if you win, all you get to do is say “I told you so”
So just watch the game, keep your mouth closed and at the end of the game whoever wins can do all the shittalkin they want… just don’t shoot ur TV if ur cowboys lose though

I got a job to go out there and make plays, which I’m going to do.
Translation: I will not get into all the trash talking but I will make a bold statement of I will make plays.
I don’t think nobody’s going to stop me from doing that.
A nice subtle confidence trash talk, all the while saying he isn’t going to get into all this. lol

Yeah that’s all fine and well. The only difference is Jackson didn’t find it necessary to speak out to the media like Jenkins did. He’s only responding to someone else’s comments, so of course there will be a cocky tone.

You guys are officially on the record...
Jenkins would start in Philly because he is better than Samuel.
- spadesking131313
i’m going to laugh when mr. overrated has another amazing 2 catch 29 yard performance
- lol222
And by the way, what he (and newman for that matter) have done is completely out play your corners for the second half of the season, when you’ve been supposedly so fantastic.
-HEPennypacker
Jenkins is MUCH better than Asante. Watch closely on Sunday and you might learn something. That is even if, IF, McNabb can get rid of the ball.
-spadesking131313
what's your point?
yahoo sports thinks he’s the third best corner behind revis and woodson. i could probably find links saying that sheldon brown and asante samuel are better than jenkins. just because somebody makes a comment on the internet doesn’t make it true.
heck… we have an idiot over here wsho thinks jack ikeguanu is better than asante samuel
AS WELL AS not equal to BETTER
They said he is playing AS WELL AS any corner not named Woodson or Revis.
Translation: Jenkins is not as good as Woodson or Revis, and he’s playing at the same level OR better than anyone else.
So it’s not saying that Jenkins is better than Asante.
i say a si article where it said matt moore played as well as peyton manning in the game against the giants in my opinion matt moore is just as good as manning…..o wait nvm im not retarded
Yes I have vegeta from dragon ball z in my picture....combined with eagles logo my picture is badass enough to cure cancer
Yeah...I think you're missing my point
This spades idiot cited the article saying that Jenkins was BETTER than Asante, when at best it was hinting that Jenkins was as good as Asante
Of course, I don’t agree with the article anyway. But even the article does not state that Jenkins is better.

Hey bud
With Romo at the helm have the Cowboys ever won a game in January???
by Cowboy KILLER on Dec 31, 2009 5:45 PM EST up reply actions
In all fairness,
this is a team sport. No one player makes a team as proven earlier in December. Romo played awesome and they lost…….they lost as a team and they win as a team. Do you blame McNabb for every loss the team has or do you blame the team?

Who lost that first playoff game
by Cowboy KILLER on Dec 31, 2009 10:32 PM EST up reply actions
So you are telling me that one play in what
like 30 seconds is the whole reason a team lost a game? You telling me the other 59minutes and 30 seconds don’t count? He bobbled the snap and didn’t get the kick off….true. He is also the QB that lead the drive to even put them in that great situation. Still they had 59 other minutes in that game to do something more than what they did as a team. We all think the last play loses a game when in REALITY the game is 60 minutes long.

If Romo knew how to put the ball down without dropping it

Nope ...

You girls gonna take down my posts .. like you did after the last game?
Since I will be the only one here come Monday, I am thinking of a new name for this site … maybe “Blogging Green Nation Blue” or “The Green Nation Blues” …. oh wait .. wait … I think I got it “Blogging the Boys All OVer the Green Nation Ass!!” .. Yep that is it!!

You have no stats that prove anything
Based on execution, I can tell you the Eagles have played better. Based on DVOA, I can tell you the Eagles are rated higher, and therefore their percentage of winning the game based on 16 weeks of data is higher.
There is nothing else that is proven, or that has any relevance or bearing.
I'd say you are pretty close to ban right now
so i’d shut up while you are behind

Jenkins is only a second year CB...
So I hate makings judgement calls so early in a player’s career. That being said let me vent how much I really dislike this guy so far. I have read countless articles about him talking trash on opponents and talking himself. You know what sucks even worse than another cocky Cowboys player? This guy is getting better every week. It used to be a fun game for me to watch the smart ass get beat on a route or even the Giants game where he decided it would be in his best interest to not stop the RB from scoring a TD. I think those days are over though. Each week when I watch the Cowboys game I see this guy getting a pick or making a play. Do I think he can stop Djax? No way, Champ Baily tried that last week and if the least we get out of Jackson is a TD and a 40 yard pass interefence call I will take that everytime. But Jenkins is no slouch and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if he can “limit” our big playmaker to some extent. This just means Maclin, Avant, and Celek need to step it up for us again in the passing game. Should be another great one on Sunday.
by IgglesFanDeployd on Dec 31, 2009 7:27 PM EST reply actions
No, that ain't happening, at least for most of the game
Jenkins asignment should be Maclin, who’s usually the receiver on the left side of your Offense… DeSean is rarely on that side, he’s moved from the right side to the slot in an almost every play fashion.
That’s what happened in the previous game, too, Newman and Scandrick were responsible of taking on DeSean, while Jenkins played against Maclin in an almost ever play fashion.
Viva México! Go Cowboys!
If that's true (Jenkins on Maclin in game 1)...
than Jenkins played us very well last game. Maclin had a very poor performance against d. I will say, Jenkins has played well from what I’ve watched. And I don’t like admitting it. I also see this game as very tough. The Eagles probably will have more to play for, as d requires a lot of help to get a first round bye, but a home game for round one is a big plus.
I will say, spadesking, you are acting like a real ass. I’ve said similar crazy things out of fun, but you seem to have a real malicious streak in you. Look d fans and everyone else, I do wish all of you and yours a happy new year. We’re just talking football here, truly nothing very important. I’d like to keep our differences in the realm of this fantasy world. I wish no ill will toward anyone and would hope we can all agree to the same. I’d hope our spiritedness is understood as simply in the perspective of fans, fanatical for our teams.
Well said, it's mutual

Jenkins seems to be improving..
and I have always thought of T-New in the sense of Asante just a natural ball hawk, but I think Scandrick benefits more from playing with two good corners as opposed to being legit himself. People can disagree with that one but it is just my opinion. Can someone remind me who got the Maclin drop/pick last game? I think we can take that one off the boards for the rematch Maclin has been improving every week I think he can step it up this week and at the least erase the mental errors from the first meeting.

No, that’s wrong… Over at BTB we say that Newman is in the Roberto Durán fan club… Roberto Durán… The boxer… Known for his nickname Manos de Piedra… Hands of stone.
The guy has dropped several handfuls of easy balls…
Viva México! Go Cowboys!
The Cowboys D is for real, unfortunately. And Wade calls a good defensive game.
The teams are as close in talent as they’ve been since 1990/1991…So what’s the difference maker for me?

desean doesnt need trash talk to back him up
his play does it all for him
eff you we winning anyway
A.I. IS BACKKKKKKK
Jenkins wasn't trash talking
Jenkins said he won’t let him him get by him. He didn’t say that Jackson won’t catch 12 balls for 50 yards.
Jenkins is a Top 10 CB in the league. Almost as good as Samuel. Now, Newman is the most overrated CB in the league. I doubt Jackson will beat Newman deep either. Newman generally likes to start with a 15 yard cushion and start sprinting backwards with the snap. I’m sure this will be 25 yards against Jackson. Good times.
Yes, from a troll.

Not statistically
But I think he makes a couple of big catches to keep the chains moving late in the game
