Disingenuous comments like this ruin the entire point that he is trying to make. I wish these bozos just stick to the facts without trying to be cute.

Is it just me or is anyone else tired of the cuteness so called writers put in their articles so that everyone reading knows how they feel about a particular person or subject? It never ends... yes you hate TO, yes you hate Jerry, yes you hate Wade, whatever your agenda is. Give it a rest already.
It isn't just you.

IMO, however, Choice is without question, the most complete back on this club.

I still think Marion Barber tops the list.

MB3 can run, catch and I trust his pass protection skills.

I'm not sold on either Felix Jones or Tashard Choice covering our quarterback on blitz pick-ups, I haven't seen them enough yet.

I know the Barbarian can do whatever is needed on offense.

It doesn't matter to me which back starts or gets the most carries, though we all expect Barber to return to the closer role this season.

Jones' explosiveness demands more snaps, Choice has a natural feel for carrying the ball that warrants the same and MB3 has a dual personality called Mr. 4th QTR/Sir Scores A Lot.

All three need their touches.

"I think I established who I am and what I can do," Choice said yesterday. "This year is to let them know that I'm for real."
I think most of us figured out you are for real LAST year.

I love me some Choice!
Even though Felix has that one-run TD ability, I'm most excited about Choice. This guy looks to be an all-around back something like Brian Westbrook; a guy that can be a threat rushing or receiving.

I honestly think he could be the starter w/ MBIII the 3rd down/short yd/RZ back and Felix relieving them both throughout the game in different situations.

As crappy as the injuries were last season, if not for them, I think we may never have gotten a real good look at Choice.

Choice can carry this team and will do so during some stretches this year. Book it.

If anyone is close to being explosive and dangerous like Westbrook, it is Jones not Choice.

He's a solid all-purpose back, but I still am struggling to see how he is a weapon akin to Westbrook. He does everything very well, but is he exceptional? I don't see it, even based off some credible performances against good defenses. I'd need to see more to put him in that category but I don't believe we should force it to find out.

Yeah, I have to agree with you on this one Alexander. Felix has that explosiveness the Cowboys haven't seen since Tony Dorsett.

This is no slight on Tashard. I think in his own way is going to be a very valuable asset to this team.
