He is so sick!! Everytime he touches the ball you think he's goin to the house!..There was a play where he just ran an out to the flat and Romo hit him quick for about 7 yards..that should be all day!! and if they cover it then hit Witten down the seam or Roy on a comback. Pick your poisen.

I can't wait till we see Felix in action next year..the possibilties are endless with him!

To me, the best display of his ability from the game happened on 4th and 4 on a pitch to the ride side. I watched that play, over and over in slow motion and it was as though I had pressed play again as soon as he hit the edge and cut up field. He has a second gear that his 40 time did not reveal.
 
If he doesnt' get hurt on a 14 yard run at Arizona, Dallas wins. Garrett was about to feed it to him, I think.
 
Colombo is so horrible blocking in space

still love the guy a great deal, but man, it's hard to watch him sometimes

Can't wait to see him go for a full season. He almost has Chris Johnson speed but he's a little bit thicker....which is good. Hopefully his body holds up this season.

naw, he has his burst definitely, but that long speed isn't there, not even close

watch the video, esp. near the end Colombo trying to run out and set up a block, he falls all over himself, which is normally what he does

I agree....was referring mostly to the burst but didn't describe it as such. Nobody has CJ speed after 10 yards....it's warp-like.

I kind of thought that's what you meant, although one can never be so sure about you old guys :)you know about as much as CJ as I do

which is alot

Yeah, I watched it again...to bad a big sob like him can't run as fast as Felix, huh?

He did his job which was to make some contact to seal off the right side...he did.

If only he ran a 4.3.

Point? What point? The one on top of your head?


:confused:

I'm getting work done there, so back off
some OTs can block well in the 2nd level, Colombo just can't, he's unwieldy out there

i disagree. when is the last time you saw someone catch him from behind? I can't remember it. Quinten Demps ran a sub 4.4 at the combine and didn't come close to catching him on that kick return.

I disagree, watch it again. Colombo takes out two guys on that play, the second guy with a right leg whip, and judging by the height of the leg, it looks intentional.

Check these highlights out:

I like the swing past at the 1.15 minute mark. Gotta love the way he is slicing through traffic.
