USA Today: Felix Jones' punch felt in Cowboys offense

[Bob Sacamano]

I disagree with this....Guys like Slaton Johnson and Forte are way ahead of him for that award.....

that's why Felix has won OROY for the week 2 times now while none of those guys have...

We didn't just get a great player, we got a great person.

They also touch the ball more than Felix.

Jackson, Slaton, Forte will all be ahead of Felix in the votings just on the basis of how talented our team is.

Felix has such good vision, every move he makes in the open field; no matter how subtle, is used to set up the guy he sees out the corner of his eye. Watch when he gets outside the tackle, I've seen him shake the CB out his socks several times this year. He just sets people up for bad angles, completely changes direction, and doesn't lose any speed.

All in all, Uncle Felix is a boss.

Felix will have the better career out of all of them.

A little too early to say that. Johnson and Forte are going to be feature backs for years I think.

Steve Slaton is balling down in Houston, I would agree. There are a lot of solid rookie running backs this year. I believe Dallas was very fortunate to land Felix Jones at 22 (I think). Despite various opinion, I believe he can carry the ball 20 times a game.

What's not to like about this kid?

Well, he lacks the ability to pull off big plays or so I was told immediately following the draft.

Or it could be that his name isn't Rashard Mendenhall..? I get those two confused sometimes.
