He only had 5 carries tonight, and a couple of catches. I loved the power o his TD run as well. I think he is poised to have a huge year. Also I didn't see Garrett quick to rotate backs in either. I really believe Garrett is gonna go back to leaning on the lead horse and use Murray to spell Felix since they are very similar players allowing Garret to still run his offense. But I see Felix getting 20-25 touches a game.

I think Felix Jones will be to us what Warrick Dunn was to the Bucs/Falcons... a fast back who can tear yards off and be a nice toy out of the backfield.

But, at the same time... be the one who goes for the kill instead of doing the bruising.
 
His vision seems to have improved considerably, but is still a work in progress.

Yup, i think Felix is the real deal. I was trying to tell people who doubted that if we simply let him take the runs in close he'd produce. I have no idea why we stayed with Barber and Choice getting the bulk of the red zone carries last season when they never showed they could get the neccessary tough yards or TD's.
 
FJ is going to have a great year. Can't wait to see him & Murray on the field together with Murray in the slot on an end around.
 
Red said this past week that while you have a rotation of backs you obviously want to have your "bell cow".

So, yeah, I'm thinking Felix is that guy.

I don't question Felix. I question the blocking in front of him.
