He didn't have the greatest game out there, but like Witten, Bryant, and Romo, he kept fighting and had some big runs towards the end. Felix really outshone Choice tonight, who made the boneheaded run out of bounds to save the Skins a TO. Not happy about his fumble but he was crucial in recovering some of the snaps.

Overall, a warrior's game, coming out there with a separated shoulder and never gave up.
 
14 carries for 115 yards and an 8.2 average...this is what he did in college and he is still doing it. Did he have it rough earlier this year? Yep....you wanna see rough? Look Tennessee's way.

Felix did this without very good line blocking.

There are many other things I can say about this team right now....especailly about how unprepared they seemed to be, but we won.

Enjoy it now, but this cannot go on....they need to get better...but Kudos to Felix.
 
I think Felix's game was huge. If we can get a running game going we could be dangerous when Austin gets back and we are healthy. The line will hopefully get better as they gain experience throughout the year.
 
I was going to start this same thread. He also had at least one key reception. And the stats dont include that nice gain called back on Bennett's hold, too.
 
He ran real well...the runs I liked the most were those handful of 5-6 yard carries where he fell forward for an extra couple. Really showed some power and determination.

Murray also had a nice run called back because of a hold. If I were the Cowboys, Choice was cut 20 min ago.

3 catches for 40 yards.
 
Felix.....Felix, Felix.

I needed 14 points in a couple of fantasy leagues.

I got 15 in the ESPN league but they haven't charged him with the fumble yet.

In the other league, my opponent had Dez and his last catch pretty much sunk me.

Still love you Felix. Especially considering he went after the DB on that long run.

Hurt shoulder and he's taking one for the team because it has to be done.
 
Choice NAY...stunningly gutless move to run out of bounds...he knew it too judging by his body language...god DARNIT it's time to cut bait with this kid...how on *****' earth are he and buehler still on this team?:bang2:
 
Word is he reinjured his shoulder. That's why he was in in the GW FG series :(
 
Good thread. Don't want his game to get lost in the shuffle. I expected Romo to sack-up but I expected Felix to run like he did right after the injury in SF. He hit holes hard. The four-yard gains inside were even more impressive that the big hitters.

I still trust him more than the rookie's when called on to block.
 
Choice is done. We need a bruiser RB and Tanner is the closest thing. Someone that will bounce off of tackles and can turn no-gains and 1-yard gains into 3-4 yard gains.

He won me my game by 2 :D

Great effort. For all the criticism imo he does a pretty good job overall, not dominant, but if he was he would have been a top 10 draft pick.
 
I love Felix

i think felix may have gotten me a win tonight.....feeling a bit sheen-esque....
 
Felix had a pretty good game with a very inconsisten oline. When was the last time we had a 100 yd game ?

I have no idea...either Felix or Choice.
 
Felix had a great cut on that last long run. If they can get him in the open field more, good things will happen. He also showed toughness by playing through the injury. Someone said he reinjured the shoulder. I hope it isn't serious. Good game and right on time.
