I love Felix, But

[tyke1doe]

Besides we had it on good authority that Johnson could only run straight ahead.

Isn't that the direction you're suppose to run?

 

[tyke1doe]

Felix has the highest rushing average in NFL history for any running back with more than 30 career attempts.

Who knows what would happen if he ever got 300 to 350 carries in a season?

If we had drafted Johnson and gave him seven carries a game, and if Tennessee had taken Felix like Fisher said they would have, then gave him 300-plus carries, we might be sitting here rueing the day we passed on Felix Jones for a guy who gets the ball only six or seven times a game.

LOL!

Tru dat.

However, I wonder. Do you think Felix gets injured because he doesn't get as many carries? Do you think C.J. would be as prone to injury as Felix if in the same situation?

Not to mention that Tennessee's OL is a far superior at run-blocking when compared to Dallas' OL. They are true road-graders.

Chris Johnson would be getting 5-8 touches per game in Dallas.

I think Felix can do great things if we give him a chance. He has rare talent and it is obvious whenever he gets even a little bit of a hole to exploit. I really believe he is the key to our season. I just pray that Garrett keeps using him more and more.

So in other words, our coaching staff is insane and grossly incompetent.

It pains me to realize that we had a shot at the best running back in the league(Chris Johnson)...Felix is great, but he`s injury prone. Don`t get me wrong, I think Felix is finally starting to blossom once jason garrett got his mind right, bit we passed up a proven factor back....

IF we could go back to that draft, all things considered, would you take Johnson over Felix

bingo...hindsight is 20/20...but you also have to realize that their line is blocking very well

Or we actually have other weapons for the coaches to utilize...
