MBIII or Felix Jones? I am thinking that Barber will grind out about 85-90 yards on about 15 carries. Jones will crank out another 50-60 on 8 carries and maybe another 30 yards receiving.

I don't think Cleveland is going to be prepared for this one-two punch.

I'm ready to see Barber have a breakout game. I think the backs are going to get more time with our depleted receiving core.

Felix will have a 50+ yard play. I don't know if it will be a run or on a catch, but it will happen.

Watch Felix get yardage in the passing game, while Barber is gonna have a 100+ game... TO will get double coverage. Expect Patrick C to get around 70-80 yards... Low scoring game, it'll be ironic

Same here. I'd be willing to bet that Barber is salivating at the opportunity to show what he can do as the starter. I think Jones will have 2-3 big plays, but probably as receptions or kickoff returns. I'll take those, too.

I'd put money on Felix to have a relative bigger game. I think he's the ACE in the hole. Most likely his yards will come later in the game after MBIII wears them down.

I just think when Barber is in, everyone comes up into the box. When Jones is in, they expect pass, play cover, and he kills them on draws, screens and check downs.

But what happens when they're on the field at the same time? :D:D

I concur...MB is in the spotlight now when it counts.

I'd like to see Felix get some touches early to keep Barber fresh for the second half when he can attack the second level with more gusto once Shaun Rogers is sucking wind.

I think Felix simply because not only is he going to get carries, he is more or less going to be our 4th WR.

I see Felix Jones having more of an overall impact whether rushing ,special teams, receiving he can do it all really. But MBIII will get 90yds on 18 rushes;)

I think MBIII will have more yards in the game, however, I believe Felix will have a nice game for a rookie that's only going to get around seven to twelve carries in his first NFL game. It also appears to me that this team has the potential to be a lethal three headed monster with Choice to carry a small portion of the load as well.

MBIII. I think he's going to have about 130 yards on the ground and a couple of rushing TDs.
