FWST Blog: Jerry Jones on 105.3... Flozell/Felix/Barber

[Hostile]

than he's a fragile rb. also Felix has been a backup rb since he college. he's not used to getting that many carries. hell the guy can't handle 8 and the coaches wanted to give him 25+! that's just stupid. Choice carried the load in college so he's used to getting a lot of carries.

Why do I bother?

 

[DaBoys4Life]

No he wasn't. Arkansas ran a 2 back set.

he was a back up.

 

[Rampage]

Why do I bother?

cause you feel the need to be heard. I've already explained your female traits to you.

Ummm...

Flozell kicked Peppers.

And I thought that was a very telling comment about Felix getting 25-30 touches the other night had he not been injured.

Sounds to me like his future is as the feature back if he can stay healthy.

Here's the interview by the way...

Jerry talks about MBIII, Felix and Sex in the Bathroom

Jerry makes a funny at the end, lol.

 

[Hostile]

he was a back up.

Wrong. At times he did backup McFadden, but Arkansas ran a 2 back set and even some wishbone with Peyton Hillis. They called their formation the Wildhog and McFadden usually took the direct snaps. He was not a backup, he was a very big part of that Offense.

Felix was far from a backup.

That offense was crazy good on the ground.

Lets compare that to Dmac

Almost twice as many careers Felix was clearly the back up LoL.

Let's not even count 2007 when Dmac had almost 3 times the amount of carries.

He was still a back up. Dmac was the starter got the majority of the carries. Kind of like JJ and Mb3 except Felix doesn't run as hard ad Mb3.

:laugh2:

You go kid. Keep on deluding yourself. Moose Johnston had fewer carries than Emmitt, I guess that made him a backup too. Judas Priest, I actually watched Arkansas games. I was a big time McFadden supporter thinking Cleveland was going to suck.

Did we not explain that Felix and DMac were both on the field at the same time.

A lot of Felix's carries were on handoffs from DMac.

he wasn't the primary back.

 

[Four]

I think it's funny how people were screaming for felix to be the primary back, and now they think he can't be trusted to carry the load.

From week to week reality shouldn't change, but for some it seems to.

 

[Hostile]

he wasn't the primary back.

That doesn't make him a backup.

 

[juck]

Flo defintely trips on purpose,lol.

 

[renny]

I think Jones' biggest problem is that he doesn't "prepare" for the tackle. Almost every tackle is him landing awkwardly on the ground at high speed.

I think as a runningback there is an art to getting tackled and falling and some players do it better than others. I think we'll see him injured throughout his career if we try to use him more than 8-10 plays in a game.

If Felix can't handle but only 8 to 10 plays a game, this was a wasted pick.

 

[Rampage]

That doesn't make him a backup.

it basically does. I know he was on the field a decent amount with McFadden but Dmac was the #1 rb. Felix was #2 on the depth chart also known as the backup.

 

[AsthmaField]

Sometimes, when I read what Jerry has to say... I just sit and wonder what planet Jerry is from.


Why are his sentences so incredibly hard to understand?

Reality changes from nano-second to nano-second. That's how everyone rolls...wether they know it or not?

 

[tyke1doe]

Why is this a big dispute? Felix was a backup (if you look at carries) as well as an intregal part of the Arkansas offense. It all depends on how you look at his role.

It sux he appears to be so injury prone. No question, the guy is dynamic. He just has to say healthy, if he can.
