I'm still not ready to say Felix is injury prone. Here is what he did in college.

38 games.
387 carries
2954 yards.
Plus another 39 catches and 64 kickoffs.

I cant see any mention of him missing time with injuries. That is a lot of touches without getting injured.

We wont know until time passes. But i am not yet ready to label him.

I prefer to just keep thinking about how every time he touches the ball how exciting it is.

This offense is going to really fail without Felix. He's the only person that makes this offense respectable.

It sux he got hurt, but hopefully it isnt serious. He is a sensational talent.

For those bashing him with the "made of glass" b/s, it isnt like he's tripping over a blade of grass and pulling a muscle people. He's taking some pretty huge hits, especially when he's getting into the sidelines. And he isnt running like a pusskatore, he is looking to get as much as he can everytime he carries it.

I love this guy, he's an amazing weapon.

tashard choice is taking the same kind of hits and falling in the same way but he manages to stay healthy

felix is fragile

I'm almost positive they were moving the ball ***iciently with Choice out there.

I think Romo just took what the defense gave him....

Well, he was riding the bike and standing on the sideline, so it can't be too serious. Hopefully Barber returns next week if Felix can't go in Denver.

I dont know what you are watching, but no, he isnt.

Most of these really big hits and bad falls come on these breakaway plays, and the guy is running full speed.

The good news is that it sounds like there's a great chance Marion will be back next week.

It's true guys: Jones gets JACKED UP when he gets tackled on the sidelines: here's one idea that Emmit, and other RB's did to stay healthy: RUN OUT OF BOUNDS instead of getting creamed. Manly? Not always, but extremely smart and it will lengthen his career: this is getting old. Luckily MBthree will be back next week .

When you move at velocities near the speed of light your relative mass increases causing more energetic collisions.

Some of you don't understand what it's like to be running at 18-22mph full speed into someone.

Remember the time you were parallel parking and bumped into the car behind you at 1.5mph and you had a stiff neck the next morning? Yeah. And you had 3,000lbs of steel surrounding you. Run into a 250lb human being with a combined hit speed of oh, say, 35mph and come to a dead halt, then get plowed into turf. Yep. Thought so.

Felix got nicked up tonight.

He would have busted 150 if he doesn't get hurt.

He'll be back.

I think he'll learn eventually, but you cant fault the guy for turning on the burners and trying to win every foot race either.

This guys a weapon. He was a sensational draft pick.

Dear EMMITT,
Will you please have a talk with Felix and give him a few tips about how not to get hurt while playing his heart out.
Thanks

Norm Hitzges said Felix has been fitted for a knee brace. Sorry if this was already mentioned. I didn't read the whole thread yet.
