Aaron Jones of the Packers: effective against the Rams

Jones had 86 rushing yards and one touchdown on 12 runs, adding two receptions to zero yards in Sunday's 29-27 loss to the Rams.

Jones rewarded the Packers coaching staff for giving him 12 runs, a seven-yard gain or more in five of his Rams attempts, including a 33-yard touchdown to bring Green Bay back to the field. goal deficit at the end of the third quarter. As was further demonstrated in the eighth week, the sophomore proved that with more work, he became an additional asset for the Packers ground attack. In six games since the start of 2017, during which Jones has racked up at least 11 races, he averages 5.7 yards per run with five touchdowns. The 9th week brings a tough confrontation between Jones and the Green Bay team, facing a seventh in New England who has only granted a 100-yard run all season (Kerryon Johnson during the 3rd week).
