However, the Ravens wide receiver is still waiting for his first perfect score on 'Dancing With The Stars.'

Jacoby Jonesicon-article-link.gif showed a combination of beauty and power in Monday’s ‘Dancing With The Stars’ quarterfinals, drawing rave reviews from the judges.

Problem is, the scores aren’t yet reflecting that.

The couples each danced two performances this week, the second of which with an extra professional of the opposite sex.

Jones earned straight 9s for the second straight week on his first dance, a smooth Viennese Waltz, then set the place on fire with a Paso Doble and scored a 25.

He earned a combined score of 52, which is high, but just the fourth highest of the night out of six couples.

“Up until now you’ve been a pretender. You’ve become a contender tonight!” shouted judge Len Goodman, who has been the hardest on Jones.

In his rehearsal interview, Jones promised that his supportive mother, Emily London-Jones, who has been yelling at Goodman throughout the show, would give Goodman a kiss if he gave the couple a 10.

She can save it for another night.

Jones still has yet to earn a 10 even though some of his toughest competition has all broken into that territory. He’s not at the bottom, but he’s not keeping pace with the leaders.

Jones had aced the personality of his dances, not surprisingly showing plenty of character and fun during his routines. But his stumbling block has consistently been his technique.

Jones took a step in the right direction Monday night, nailing the graceful, controlled Viennese Waltz in Monday’s quarterfinals.

Dancing to “It’s A Man’s World” by James Brown, Jones showed clean lines and his usual chemistry with partner Karina Smirnoff.
