Oh I'm sorry, were you looking for positive impact?
Our positive impact will be beating your *** again.
Beating our ***?
In 3 starts against us, Jakes is 1-2. He's gone 35-76, 2 TD's, 10 sacks.
The one win came,
of course, on the back of Bobby Rainey, in a 2OT game, in which Rainey carried the ball 37 times for 166 yards. Yes Jakes did throw the winning TD in that game,
but, just a reminder, that second overtime started with two consecutive incompletions by Jakes. If not for an 11 yard run on 3rd and 10 by Rainey, you would have been depending on a long field goal from Tinius(who was 0-3 on the day) just to send the game to a third OT. Just for further emphasis on Rainey's roll in that game, not only did his 11 yard run on 3rd and 10 extend the game, but the very next snap he rushed for 10 more yards to get the ball inside the 5, which set up the game winning touchdown pass on the next snap and yes, Jakes made the throw, but who did it go to? Rainey, of course.
Look, you guys won the game last year, you have bragging rights, but the only "*** beating" in the series recently was when we beat you guys 62-24 in 2009. You won in 2011
in spite of not
because of Kawaun Jakes.
You very well may beat us again in 2012, especially if you guys are right about your running game being "just fine" without Rainey, but I can assure you that if your Toppers do win again in 2012, it again will be
in spite of not
because of Kawaun Jakes.
Bragging rights are on your side, but facts pertaining to Jakes are not. There's your chair shot.
