[EBF]

Felix Jones =

 

[T Bell]

braylon edwards is killing me with the drops and missed targets.

Three pretty bad ones so far, including a dropped long TD, though that one may have been coming right out of the sun in fairness to Braylon.

There's a 4th one

 

[Eviloutsider]

Throw it to Winslow, he doesnt drop balls (much).

 

[bentley]

Mookie is killin' it today.

 

[landrys hat]

I Barber

 

[T Bell]

Cleveland has looked pretty good on offense, but this isn't going to be much of a game for very long if they don't stop the Cowboys offense.

 

[Moe Green]

I am 100% #### for Barber.

 

[timschochet]

What a stud Barber is. I swear he could end up the #1 FF RB this year so long as he stays healthy. So far he's in on every down. I wonder if we we only see Felix Jones during mop up time.

 

[bcover27]

I'm extremely happy to see barber getting some receptions in, as I was expecting for that to be Felix's job this year... looking good so far

I bet we see more of Felix in the second half (in addition to the couple times he's lined up at wideout). Beat 'em down with Barber and then let Felix's speed drive the nail later in the game. Kinda the opposite of how Barber was used last year, except that M-Bar III is actually punishing.

 

[cowboyz]

TO got ripped off there

 

[bentley]

Well, that was probably a bit of a change of pace for a few fantasy games. I like what Wade did there. No need to waste a challenge when it's 1st and goal on the 1.

 

[timschochet]

Barber owners were given a gift there at the expense of Owens owners...

 

[BigRed]

Wade Phillips YOU F-ING MORON.

Why would you not challenge that call??

 

[cowboyz]

Wade Phillips YOU F-ING MORON. Why would you not challenge that call??

because it's under 2 minutes...

 

[MCguidance]

TO owners loss is Barber owners gain.

He really is looking pretty good. I think he is in for a big, big year.

 

[Moe Green]

It just gets better.

 

[Eviloutsider]

Wade Phillips YOU F-ING MORON. Why would you not challenge that call??

Under two minutes, no the rules of football before you open your mouth.

Well ####. That's a good point. I apologize for saying Wade was a genius.

 

[mbuehner]

Challenges come from the refs in the booth inside 2 minutes. Coaches cant challenge.

 

[BigRed]

because it's under 2 minutes...

? You can't challenge when it's under 2 minutes?

Usually the guy you want in the 2nd half when you're ahead is more of a punishing guy than Jones is, to wear down the defense and keep the clock moving. Nobody ever performed that role better than Jerome Bettis for Bill Cowher. I don't think Jones it that kind of RB. Maybe they'd be better off giving Choice some carries- he's certainly physical, or at least he was in college.

 

[fatness]

? You can't challenge when it's under 2 minutes?

Only F-ING MORONs know this.

 

[thayman]

Under two minutes before the half, or end of the game coaches can't challenge. It must come from the booth.

I thought you beat 'em up with the power guy and then brought in the speed, but I really don't care. I'm just enjoying watching the Cowboys.

Remove foot from mouth before speaking lol. Really surprised a challenge didn't come down from the booth. Would have given me the win heading into a 2 vs 3 players for tomorrow

ah That's a stupid rule though, and it's a joke that wasn't reviewed.

Actually it's a great rule. #1- doesn't promote coaches to save thier challenges for game-deciding plays#2- prevents coaches from slowing down the gameplay by making ridiculous challenges at the end of the game/half. Although that doesn't seem to stop some as they throw the flag anyways as if to tell the booth they need to review itAnd yes, it's a joke that was not reviewed, it was a close call. If I'm a Cowboy fan and I don't score a TD at the end of that drive, I'm furious the booth didn't call for a review. The fact that they scored on the next play makes people forget about it... except for us TO owners who could have used another score!

 

[TheFanatic]

braylon edwards is killing me with the drops and missed targets.

No kidding. How many times can the ball hit him in the hands and end up incomplete?

 

[Bogart]

I hate getting interrupted and have to TiVo and then play catch up...

Yeah Mookie!!! Great half. Look for Jones in the 2nd half.

 

[bentley]

I agree, but Tim Crochet doesn't think that's the way you do things.

 

[Dt's Mules]

Under two minutes, no the rules of football before you open your mouth.

know the rules of english before correcting people?

 

[cowboyz]

that was a lame PI call on TO

 

[Bogart]

weak PI call on TO.

That's axing a bit much.

PacMan makin' it rain again.

[MCguidance]

Felix Jones 11 yd TD

 

[bentley]

Oh good. Be prepared for a rush of Felix Jones owners.

 

[timschochet]

Well, I guess you guys were right about Felix Jones. Nice TD run.

 

[gilpdawg]

Jones just vultured one from me.

 

[Bogart]

what was that? Jones in the 2nd half??

 

[Vykng]

Felix "The Cat" Is a BEAST!

 

[T Bell]

Well, it was better than having another one go to Barber.

 

[Bogart]

Jones just vultured one from me.

We don't care. Take it outside.

 

[gilpdawg]

Well, it was better than having another one go to Barber.

I don't agree.

 

[Chicago Hooligan]

So Corey Williams was really worth that 2nd and big money, huh.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Jones just vultured one from me.

You aren't allowed to cry about it when the player who supposedly the score got vultured from has already scored twice.

 

[timschochet]

Jones just vultured one from me.

I think Barber owners can let him have one now and then. I'm pretty satisfied with Barber today. And anyway, we got a gift TD that should have gone to Owens.

 

[bentley]

Jessica's gonna have to kiss that boo-boo.
