Felix Jones is ready to go

For the second straight day Felix Jones did not appear on the injury report. He suffered a bruised thigh vs. Tampa Bay, which limited his work, but Wade Phillips likes what he has seen so far.

"Didn't look bothered at all," Phillips said.

Which is a good thing for the Cowboys. Jones did not play vs. New York last year because of the hamstring and toe injuries, so he is something of an unknown to the Giants.

"It would be an advantage if we get him the ball, I think," PHillips said. "Obviously I think he's going to be a really good player for us and against the Giants it'll be a little bit new. But the more good players on the field or to get th eball to against any team is going to help you."

Phillips also said Gerald Sensabaugh practiced without any problems too and should be fine for the game.

I wish the bolded statement was true, but I doubt it is. I'm sure they know all about Felix.

They know about him, but they haven't played against him.

I expect to see the usual bad angles as guys are fooled by his deceptive speed.

I'de go with Hightower and Barber. I like Arizona to rebound on the road Sunday and Barber will get the goalline work. Sproles will split time with Michael Bennett and their OL is really banged up. It's a risk starting Barber AND Felix so I'de go Hightower and Barber.
