Trying to read Rashard Mendenhall in the backfield without proper eye protection has been shown to cause blindness, dizzyness, diarrhea, and possibly cleat marks to the face.

Felix Jones is called upon to pick up the slack when CERN, home of the world's largest particle accelerators in Europe, goes down for maintenance. He becomes the conduit for all acceleration....

Hey Guys...long time reader...new poster...The only thing I do not get is why F. Jones is considered a change of pace guy only. Why can't he be a starter...too small? Emmit was smaller.

Emmitt was shorter... not smaller. Maybe Felix can be fulltime but he's built thinner and faster than Emmitt, although he has similar intangibles.

This was fun, but I am going to concede victory to you... time to see about getting some dinner ready.
I like Jones better, anyway.
Cheers.

There is no reason for any athlete if they want it bad enough to pay the price to get it.

From his college coach Houston Nutt: Felix can carry the load 25 times a game if you want. He gets stronger as the game goes on, and he's thicker and stronger than you think. Plus he has a feel for how to avoid contact at the last second and not take big hits.


I think because he was used as a backup at Ark. many just assume that he can't take on a bigger load. All I can say is I think every other back in this draft would have been playing backup to McFadden had they attended Ark.

Bon appétit.

I don't think people receive how exceptional Felix Jones'
quicks and vision are.

He'll be a FEATURE back for Dallas for the next 7 years.

I'll bet he puts up better numbers this year than Mendenhall

Nice try. Sincerely. But it takes some people a long time to let go of something that ticked them off.

Somebody posted in the chat room:

"Mendenhall doesn't wear a cup to protect himself but rather to protect other players on the field." :lmao2:

For those upset over not getting Mendenhall get over it, its in the past, all this complaining isn't going to bring him to Dallas.
I was pissed for like 1 day...

Now I'm already hopeing He becomes a bust for the Steelers. I hate those guys.

felix jones and his 8 reps...Yup that's my boy now:bow:

Trhis is pretty mild compared to the "why did we pass on Steven Jackson" that ensued after that draft!!!!!
