If we only had a QB of the future..........

I don't care if Henson is the "future" as long as we draft a QB somewhere before free agency.

I'm so proud of my boys right now. I think I'm gonna cry. sniff, sniff. Last thing I wanted to see was another embarrassment on national TV.

that I was all for Jackson and I have no problem admitting that it was a brilliant move by Parcells and Jones to trade that pick. With some proper personnel moves (finding a better QB next year, whether it's Henson, Brees or someone else; and fixing the defence) we could be right back in the thick of things, especially given how weak the NFC is.

This offense is really one player away from being dynamic and that is a #1 WR. It'll take a lot of players and a new DC staff to resurrect the defense but we are close to being very good on O.

Don't forget about that thing called a QB!!

I wish T. Glen wasn't injured. He would have given us that final dimension (speed, quickness).

I think this game would have gone the way of the Packers, Bengals etc if we didn't have Julius. His long run after that PI call got the team mentally back into it.

We found ourselves in a hole too many times this year and I don't think the team believed they had anyone to bring them out of it. I think that Jones run gave them what they needed.

I think we'd be two games better if we'd had him all year.
If we had Eddie George still running the ball the last two weeks we would have lost the T-day game and would be down by at least two tds in this game.

Jujo is only 81 yards away from his first 200 yard game. With the lead he has a chance to get it but Seattle will be keying on him big time

Just watching him in these last 3 games makes you wonder what could have been. Especially if Glenn would still be healthy


It does make you wonder.......a running game gives an O so many more options.

Lets just be happy that JUJO is having a good game and the boys have the lead. Lets not get carried away with a 200 yard game.

Excellent game so far. I was SO worried back when we were down by 11 & started passing constantly. The, 'we're so far behind, we have to throw it to catch up' mentality. It didn't work all season - why the hell would you do it now & negate our best offensive weapon? Thank God we got away from that crap. Julius sure is looking like the real deal. Gentlemen, we have a good shot at pulling this one out, but man, do we need some DB help or what?

GO COWBOYS!

I hope TNew is getting his little arsey ripped by Parcells and his teamates.

Right now, I really don't care how the Henson project ends up. I'd like for him to succeed but after watching JuJo in 3 games now, I'm convinced he's a franchise back. Ya win some, ya lose some. The Henson project may never work out, we won't know for a few years, but at least we got our new franchise back this year. Go get 'em Julius! 100 more yards in the 2nd half! :cool:

In his first 2.5 games starting, 79 carries 349 yards 3 TDs.

I don't want to jinx him, but those are elite RB type numbers.

You can't argue the kid is a system RB because we haven't run the ball well here since 2001.

Agreed, if JuJo is in fact the answer to our RB situation, then a decent QB is all we need. Heck even Quincy would have done with this running back....

I just hope that Vinny is not that QB

One of the nice things about Julius in this game is, even if you take away the long gainer he's 15 for 66 for a 4.4 average.

The Glenn injury really hurt this offense, IMO.

With Glenn stretching the field, it would have opened things up even more for Witten and Key and J Jones.

Plus, now that we have a real RB, the Dan Campbell injury hurts as well!

They had to go and ruin my perfect halftime by talking about McNabb. Where's the retch smilie?

Just think of the potential firepower of this O with a #1 WR.

We can trot the following guys out next year:

#1 WR (?Mike Williams)
Keyshawn
Glenn
Witten
Julius Jones

That group could put up some big numbers even with a bus driver especially when you consider that our young OL should be much improved next year.

Well at least they've sacked the "You've Been Sacked" segment.

Thank God for large favors. Maybe they finally figured out how exceptionally cheesy it was.
