Although Dallas and NE will most likely pickup two great backs in Jones and Jackson skinsfanthru&thru 03-10-2004, 01:10 AM I'm keeping my fingers crossed that dallas doesn't get jones cuz I'd like to be able to root for the guy and not wind up hating him, lol. Ghost 03-10-2004, 02:32 AM I'm so grateful we landed Portis in his prime and not some retread. Daseal 03-10-2004, 08:24 AM Right on ghost. I hope Jones and Clarett go to non-NFC East teams! I want them both to do well. Don't turn this into I HATE CLARETT thread. Go post on one of the other multiple ones. joecrisp 03-10-2004, 02:15 PM I'm keeping my fingers crossed that dallas doesn't get jones cuz I'd like to be able to root for the guy and not wind up hating him, lol. Yeah, I'm dreading the idea of Jones becoming a Cowboy, too. Not just because I want to root for him and not hate him-- but because I know he's the goods, and it'll really suck for the Skins to have to play against him twice a year. With the problems the Skins have had defending against Cowboys runningbacks in recent years (read: "always"), Jones could do some real damage. Here's hoping Jones goes elsewhere, and/or Gregg Williams gets this defense turned around in a jiffy!
