Julius Jones- what's your take

[Pats Fan]

I didn't read through this stuff. So if I am off base, so be it.

I remember the draft, not the year when somebody on the Cowboys staff decided to pass on Jackson and move down on the draft.

I thought to myself, well that was dumb.

It could have turned out OK, but Jones, well, is just OK.

Last year -- at least I can remember back that far -- Texans pass on Bush. Oh, so dumb.

It happens. There are no crystal balls. But that move by the Boys, what 2 years ago, flat out dumb.

Texans, no Bush, oh so dumb.

Then the answer would be 29, not 35. And again, 20.9 percent would be LESS than the NFL average this season.

Not according to ESPN's play by play.

Do you think he has the capability to be a poor mans Barry Sanders because he has quickness and elusive speed. Or do you think he is too injury prone to carry the ball 300+ times and reach that 1500 yard mark?

Barry Sanders had some wiggle. JJ has about as much wiggle as one of those big heads on Easter Island.

JJ = bust.

Come on! A 1,000+ HB is far from a bust, especially running behind a less than average O-line. He just isn't as productive as MBIII. I would switch them in TC next year & see if Jones comes into his own. He is a very sensitive person, who, I believe, has been intimidated by his own head coach. He is so afraid of making a mistake, he's tightened up & is not playing like he did earlier in his career.

If we do get rid of him, and he goes to another HC who will give him positive motivation, just watch Jones explode.

I do believe MBIII should start, though. He flat out makes it happen out there.

Apparently Barber must ignore Parcells when he tries to overcoach him too.

I believe Bill has tried and Barber has said HRMPH! The old Bill from back in the day would string the guy up but the new Bill of today just lets it go. In this case I am glad he isn't overdoing it with MB3.
