AMERICAS' TEAM ADVOCATE Blog: Felix will be a star...

Felix Jones' rookie season ended after game 6 vs. the Cardinals. That was about when their players started dropping like flys. That day in Arizona Dallas lost 2 pro bowlers and a potential star. Felix will be back stronger in 09. A look at this guys' stats at Arkansas would make any fan salivate. I believe the 7.7 average per carry is the second best average in collegiate history. Especially since his gaudy college average per carry continued in his shortened NFL rookie season. This guy has been consistantly star quality. Now he was doing it against the big boys. Here are his Razorback numbers,......

At Arkansas, Jones added 383 yards receiving on 39 receptions. To see Jones show his big play ability in just 30 carries is great! Jones had a KO return for a TD also in what at the time was a big game vs. the Eagles. Both he and fellow draft pick Tashard Choice showed that they are more then capable of the 4.5 per carry mark that makes a runningback a top flight back. The two rookies combined averaged 6 yards a carry in 08. God I love this football team! This team has had so many great players in their history. There is alot of excitement to look forward to. The media says Jerry is the worst owner around, the clowns wish he was. They make it sound like the organization is a circus. Yea, all the way to the top.
