Official Kevin Jones is a Wuss Topic

[Greenie]

1st and goal from the 4
3 chances for Jones to punch it in......denied

They had to let the big tough Jeff Garthia punch it in....how sad.

It's official, Kevin Jones is a goal line wuss. Not a good thing for Fantasy Football......Damn!!

Oh, just for full disclosure, I do own the wuss (KJones) and luckily didn't start him this week. I wasted an early pick on him and he's been a big disappointment!! Luckily I have Priest and DDavis to carry me this week.

I dont see how he is a wuss. He is playing with a harness on his shoulder, just unlucky that he cant really bust through the middle. He's not really a power back more of a speed back, but i still would have given it to him at 4-1. Garcia is there now so expect k jones' numbers to go up.

i own Kevin Jones too and he was QUESTIONABLE at game time in a shoulder harness having not practiced all week and took ZERO hits. he has been fragile all year when healthy! and today they were starting Garcia who i gifured was just as likely to rin the ball in which he did. i thought starting KJ was lunacy so i benched him even when he was declared a starter and inserted Willie Parker my only other option. plus i figured with Cincy's run defense ranked 21st a good week for Willie to bust out of his funk. boy am i glad i did. don't plan to do this forever but i needed this today with Bulger hurt too.

Its the Oline dude - not KJ. The Oline hasent been able to block in short yardage situations all yr regardless of the RB.

Out of curiousity, is Sledge back?

That's what I'm looking for.. I know Detroit's O-Line is pretty sad, but I think if the Sledge was back, KJ would have a better shot at getting in.

Detroit's offensive ineffectiveness has been disappointing to say the least.

Thank god I didn't buy in too much this year. KJ in one league and Roy Williams in another.

Jones has been riding pine on my team since week 2. What a wasted pick...thankfully I picked up Parker and traded for Westbrook, so Jones isn't needed. It would be really nice to count on 10-12 points a week from him though.

Out of curiousity, is Sledge back?

Yes but his work was limited (at best) last week. Paul Smith still got a majority of snaps at fullback. I'm guessing Corey's workload will go up by each game.
