Fine debut for Felix Jones

[Fire Wade]

First-round RB Felix Jones didn't get a carry until Marion Barber bruised his ribs, but the rookie certainly didn't disappoint when he got his chance.

You want instant impact? Doesn't get much better than scoring on your first carry. The most impressive part of Jones' 11-yard TD run wasn't his burst through the hole, which everybody knew he could do. It was the way he put his head down and dragged safety Sean Jones into the end zone.

"The thing about Felix is he's not a scatback," Jerry Jones said. "He's a back of his own, as you saw on some of those inside runs."

It was the way he put his head down and dragged safety Sean Jones into the end zone.

Yeah, that really impressed me. He ripped off some other good runs as well, which makes me feel good if MBIII misses any time at all.

Not me, I have Barber on my fantasy team, and I don't want to see Jones flipping off these big runs taking away from Barber's carries. I got very uncomfortable when Jones got in the game yesterday.

Heard he almost broke a 60+ yard td and had a few big runs called back.
