News and Notes
Nov 3 RB Julius Jones rushed for 56 yards on 15 carries against his former team, the Dallas Cowboys. However, after falling behind 21-10 by halftime, the Seahawks went away from the run in the second half and threw the ball. Yahoo! Sports

Nov 2 Jones rushed 15 times for 56 yards and added two receptions for 32 yards.

Recommendation: Had Jones scored, his fantasy numbers would have been decent despite a lackluster day. As it is, it's just a lackluster day, which is all too familiar. He's ineffective for the most part anyway, but then Seattle falls behind and has to abandon the run in second half.

Oct 30 Jones is trying a different approach to this Dallas homecoming. Last year he had Seattle's date against his former team circled and highlighted beginning seven months before the Seahawks played at Dallas. Then Jones fumbled twice and was benched, part of Seattle's disastrous Thanksgiving Day loss.

Advice: This week, Jones seems like he's trying to sneak back to Dallas to play Sunday against the team that discarded him two years ago. He says it's just another game. Fantasy owners shouldn't expect much from Jones on Sunday.
