    Over 60 carries in the last two games and 247 yards gained. This kid is the real deal if he can stay healthy.

    The plays were no different than the rest of the season. It was just that Jones could get through the holes before they closed...unlike George.

    The Parcells Plan all along was to have Jones carry a majority of the carries, and then let Eddie take over with a 4th quarter lead since he rarely fumbles...to control the clock and the game.

    Makes you wonder....what if....

    I guess with them being only one game out of the playoffs, we can still see this year.

    I'm glad Julius has such a long rest period for the next game to get his legs back. That was a lot of carries in 5 days.

    I'm just happy I managed to pick up Jones in all three of my FFL leagues two or three weeks ago. [​IMG]

    Unlike the Chicago Bears's playoff hopes, I think mine are still alive.

    He's really impressing me, he seems to make very quick reads. When he finds the hole, he shoots through it like a cannon too

    i really hope that he can be consistent....if he can continue the role he is on...we may have a replacement for emmitt...
    and i dont mean he is emmitt...but i mean a actual running game since emmitt has left...
    and if jones can be a work horse our defense can step up and play potentially better because they are not on the field as often...that means less mistakes from vinny too...he has played mediocre after the first few games...so i think it is a plus.

    30 Carries 198 Yards 3 TDs against the Seahawks. Damn this guys the real deal it looks like. Exactly Bob hopefully he stays consistent because he is tearing it up out there right now. Those are some good stats for one game I'd say.

    Wow, what a suprise, Parcells knew what he was doing when he passed on Jackson, got the Bills #1 next season and drafted Julius Jones....it looks like a brilliant move after watching Jones....

    As much as it pains me to see another team's success, its fun to watch a rookie take off. I love seeing new talent in the NFL.

    Wow. That was exciting. I almost turned off the TV in disgust when Alexander scored to put the Seahawks up by 10 with 2:30 left.

    I just hope we don't kill the kid. That is three straight 30 carry games. The kid isn't built like Ricky Williams. But I do like the results [​IMG]
