I think we need to see him and marion barber run the ball more to see how they perform at their new weights. We need a strong physical run game like the chargers have. They were break tackles and running our guys over. I seen the last few times felix jones could not turn the corner on those outside runs but he is breaking alot of tackles. Hopefully when the regular season starts we see that speed.

Oh also i wish our running backs choice and donaldson would stop running out of bounds when they can put their heads down and try to pick up some yards rather then just going out of bounds. Man up.
 
Agreed...

I think we are underusing him purposefully to avoid any potential injuries. I think our coaching staff is a little skiddish on using Felix because of his injuries over the past two seasons.

We haven't run the ball well thus far, but we rerally haven't committed to running the ball yet either. We have only given Felix a handful of carries over the past three games...hardly enough to make an accurate assessment.

Hopefully, we will see more of Barber and Felix in next week's dress rehearsal. I fully expect to have a better running game than we have seen to this point.

I don't know how much of a dress rehersal it will be against houston. We play them in week 3 so I doubt we will show much scheme wise.
