    Thomas Jones is used to being the workhorse, in the last three seasons he's been the primary runner for the Jets with season totals of 310, 290 and 331 carries. At his first introduction to the Kansas City media today, you can tell he's got the 'Body By Haley' part of it down. But now that he's in Kansas City, he's not expected to be 'the man' when it comes to the run game. Instead, he'll be teaming with Jamaal Charles, and that's fine by him. "I signed here to help a team win," he said. "If I get five carries, I get five carries. If I get 25, I get 25. All I can do at this point is prepare for the season like I always have and let the chips fall where they may."

    He better not be getting most of the carries, no offense, but Charles is just more skilled, plain and simple.

    I think the best thing we could do is have them both in the backfield, that would be good for keeping the opposing defense off-balance.

    I'm glad to see RB's happy with the new system teams are adopting to keep them fresh.
