AZZURRI Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 After not being used last week, I say he really goes off vs. the lowly Bengals. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suture Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I'm thinking of starting him on the basis that this will be a blowout victory, which will eventually lead to Felix getting all the carries in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I say, "wishful thinking" since TO will be the CoP RB, the return man, and the water boy also. For everytime he drops one he needs to be thrown 2 more passes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finzball Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I'm thinking of starting him on the basis that this will be a blowout victory, which will eventually lead to Felix getting all the carries in the end. I'm thinking along the same lines...and...he's about my best flex option this week!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LayLow Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 To me it's like the same situation as ATL last year...coaches keep saying we have to give norwood the ball more. It seems like the same thing is happening with DAL and felix. I pretty much have to play him, but I am looking elsewhere for the future.

Steelhead Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 i'm having to play him as well. Though if I drop Michael Bush and pick up D Williams off waivers tonight I'll probably start him over felix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avernus Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I feel pretty good about Dallas running heavy in the 2nd half and Felix getting more than 10 carries and maybe a few catches... but I still can't start him over CJ or Stewart ...another week where the likely top performer is on the bench... I can easily see Felix gut the Bengals D for 10+ a pop... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelhead Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I've just picked up Deangelo Williams off waivers. So I can start him over Felix. Kinda wish he didnt' drop to me so I'd have no choice but to start Felix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scare Tactics Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 After not being used last week, I say he really goes off vs. the lowly Bengals. What do you think? I think its hopeful thinking, and I belive its a total coin flip. I dont think there is anyway you can predict the amount of touches and whats going to happen. After last week there's a line up people who need/want the ball more. Barber, Witten & ofc TO still thinks so. So that leaves Felix as 4th on the list.

Hugh 0ne Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 The only way Felix Jones becomes a viable fantasy option is if Barber gets hurt. IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Even then, they'd probably first see what Tashard Choice can do. Why? Felix Jones, in very limited action, has shown glimpses of brilliance. If Barber goes down, Jones becomes the man in Dallas. How many touches does Choice have this year?

Steelhead Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 why to people keep bringing up Choice? I don't see him getting much of anythign other than relief IF barber were ever to go down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Word is that Felix is the CoP to Barber, that Tashard runs more like Barber than Felix does, so there's really no need to put Tashard in when Barber is healthy. If that's true, then Felix's role doesn't change if Barber is hurt. Does anyone actually believe that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_am_the_swammi Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 After not being used last week, I say he really goes off vs. the lowly Bengals. What do you think? I was thinking the same thing.....except about Barber. Barber should get around 20 carries this week...if you think Jones is a good start getting approxiamtely 10 carries, then you should start him. But I don't know if that equates to him "going off". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystykoekaki Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 If anybody goes off vs the Bungles...it's Marion Barber, not Jones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaterMan Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I don't think Dallas would start their 4th rounder over their 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
