Felix Jones was a number one draft choice, but he is running tentatively when on kickoffs and in the running game.

So, is he a bust, only wanting to play hard when he is fully healthy?

He was MIA today, he even got a full series worth of carries. He is glorified runningback version of Devin Hester right now.

He must still be hurting because I don't see any explosiveness that he has displayed in the past.

he's a mere shell of his former self right now, burst is missing and he goes soft after contact

If he acts like he's jogging, looks like he's jogging, and appears to be jogging...

Then by golly, he's jogging.

It kills me how they just waste Choice on the sidelines.

It would help if somebody would block for Felix and Marion and Tashard. It would help a lot.

he barely gets the ball. Garrett is a bust.

what the hell has Felix showed this season that makes you think he SHOULD get the ball more?

The run blocking was terrible today. There weren't many holes.

did you see our run blocking today?

it doesn't matter who you put back there when they're met in the backfield on the handoff

Yeah joe, he's a bust, probably could'nt even get any interest in trades around the league with a bum like him.

how is he supposed to show anything when he only gets 3-5 carries a game? he's a 1st round pick that gets a handful of touches.
