Marion vs. Julius, Part 3

by Anothony on October 8, 2008

Marion and Julius returned to the field Sunday, with their teams posting vastly different results.

Julius Jones and his Seahawks made the trip east for an early kickoff against the Giants. We all know how West Coast teams struggle in early kickoffs out east and ths was no exception, as the defending champs pounded Seattle 44-6. Jones was pretty much a non-factor, as he racked up 61 yards rushing on 17 carries and had a reception for 13 yards. Julius looked strong early, but as the Giants imposed their will, he had a harder time getting loose, especially with in team in catch-up mode.

As we all know by now, the Cowboys suffered their first loss of the season in the final Texas Stadium appearance of the hated Washington Redskins.

Cowboys running back Marion Barber played a less prominent role this week, as he was held to just 26 yards rushing on only 8 carries. He also caught 2 passes for 11 yards and did not score a touchdown in the game.

One of the many running subplots this season for the Cowboys is Marion Barber vs. Julius Jones, which will come to a head when the Seahawks play in the final Thanksgiving Day game at Texas Stadium on November 27th.
