Bears bear John Fox's stamp

Vic, one of the things I noticed this week was the impact Datone Jones made after the bad punt. How would you characterize his development to this point in his career?

This is year three of Jones’ career and he’s showing signs of being an impact player, but not only as an Okie end. Coach Capers is using Jones in a way similar to how Coach Capers used Tony Brackens in 1999. Brackens was a 4-3 defensive end, but Coach Capers effectively used Brackens as a hand-on-the-ground outside linebacker in a 4-3 defense that included a lot of 3-4 principles.
