LAKE FOREST – Without meaning to sound cocky or pretentious, Cedric Benson took a little credit for Thomas Jones' big rushing day against Detroit.

"I'm motivating him," said Benson, the Bears' rookie first-round draft pick. "My motivation is entirely coming from being a rookie and hungry to get out there and be the guy. But I think my game and my presence is motivating him quite a bit, and he's stepped his game up a lot."

So, what's your point?

Good for him

[Lombardi Jr]

What a tool. This clown can't even get into camp when the job could have been his. T Jones doesn't need your motivaTION.

[benm3218]

Well the point was obvious. He is WAY to cocky for a rookie. What a jerk.

[King Colt]

agreed. this guy hasn't done anything at the pro level.

T Jones might be one of the most underated backs in the NFL.

Amen! What a load of crap

If TJones keeps playing well, the jerk will keep on motivating him. Surely TJones ability has nothing to do with his own desire and will to play well.

shhh - thats crazy talk.

Thomas Jones sure as hell doesn't need an ounce of motivation from that $$$-hungry little rook...I hope T. Jones runs for a 100+ and 2 TD's every week just to keep that twerp on the sidelines.
