    The whole offense deserves credit today, but TJ was the battering ram on a stout Titans D today. He did it very well too - almost pulled another 100 yard game. Looks like we've got AFC's top back in the backfield. And to think how Leon complements TJ so well... it's a blessing I haven't had in the past few years. True, I am spoiled in that I did have a chance to see Curtis Martin in his best years, but I am thinking these days, if CM had someone to complement him, and let him rest a bit, maybe he could be better (and play longer)

    While we're are at it, enjoying Favre in limelight, maybe we should enjoy TJ's beastly games week in and week out too.

    96 yds on 27 carries is only like 3.5 yds per carry, but vs the Titans D thats still pretty impressive. Jones has been big this year. Should reach 1,000 yds easily next week, hell vs Denvers weak run defense he might reach 1,100

    Because he's running from Leon stealing his job.

    I said that too. It looks like he lost weight, and got much slimmer. It works great, so lets keep going!

    Cant mention Jones, or Washington without mentioning the play of the o-line.

    The O-line deserves the majority of the credit for his success. They have done a great job this year.

    I thought Thomas Jones was a bum, no? At least, that's what I've been reading around here.

    Yeah, the first TD he had on the screen pass he showed great vision reading the blocks. And the blocks were excellent on that play, especially from D'bust (no i don't really think hes a bust)
