I was just about to start a similar thread, my thread was going to be who is going to have a bigger season, Felix or Bennett...

As far as your thread is concerned, more IMPORTANT, I would say Bennett..we are Weaker at "receiver" than RB..and also less depth behind bennett than behind Felix..Do not confuse this with Bennett being better though...more important is the question.

Both are definite x-factors, but I have to go with Felix.

Not only as a RB...but also as a receiving threat/return threat. That means triple the trouble for our opponents.

We have them both. I don't care who's more important. I just hope they stay healthy along with all the other weapons at Romo's disposal. Let'the opposing D worry about who's more important. They'd better.

Great question.
We have better depth at RB than receiver so I'll go with Bennett.

I think they're both going to be great players for us this year.

Felix compliments the physical play of Barber with his superior speed and agility. Bennett on the other hand adds a whole new offense to this team. With that in mind, I would have to go with Bennett because I really believe opposing coaches are going to have problems guarding this 2 tight end set.

By far the best answer in the thread.

in this aspect, I'd say Felix is still more important. yes, we are weaker at WR, but I'd rather have Felix lined up as a WR than Bennett.

We all seen the offense turn for the worse when Felix went down with injuries... I'll go with F. Jones.

I completely disagree that Felix is a bigger receiving threat than Bennett...more important? maybe, better overall? maybe, better receiver? no way...my opinion of course

Who cares?

Why does it need to be an either/or proposition?

Why the need to make sides? Why not celebrate both? Scandrick or Jenkins? Holland or Kosier? Barber or Jones or Choice? Quicy of Chutch?

I fail to grasp why we always have to be choosing sides on a TEAM.

I hope they are both important to our success. I have no idea how to say who will be more important or why I would even make that call.

.

If Bennett has a bigger season than Felix, then Felix must go down in like Week 1. I like Bennett and all, i just dont see enough balls going around for him to have a quote, big season. I think he should be a very big threat in the red zone though.

Whats everyone's numbers predictions for Bennett? I'll say 6-8 TD's, 4-500 yds receiving.

Felix Jones is going to have more than 6-8 TDs? I think Bennett will surpass 500 yards receiving, but I agree Felix will have more yards rushing than Bennett will have receiving.

Eh, i think Felix will be in that range too on td's maybe a couple more if he's incorporated in the passing game as much as everyone is saying he will be. But yeah, all purpose yards, it wont even be close.

Felix is faster, makes better cuts, has caught more passes...

with the ball in his hands, yes, Felix indeed is more dangerous. However, playing a receiving role is more about getting the ball, Bennett has a major height, size, and speed advantage at his position than Felix does and therefore is an easier target. Bennett has more receptions at this point in their respective careers. Felix is still raw as a receiver, not saying Bennett is fully developed, because he is not. However, he is much further along than Jones is.
