Smoke still has high hopes for this dude, but not in week five against the tought Baltimore D ... check out the report in Puff & Smoke's Weekly Projections
| Quote: | | Kevin Jones: Do you feel confident in Jones after being yanked last week and going against Baltimore this week? He'll still be a stud but not this week. |

From TiVo's Week 2 whirlwind.
| Quote: | From way back
Pay attention to which games you think will be blowouts. When your fantasy players are on the team that’s crushing, rushing numbers spike. (See Jones, Thomas: 20 carries, 139 yards, two TD). When your RBs team is getting bitch-slapped, it hurts even the must-start backs. Kevin Jones got eight measly carries for 22 yards. That’s both ends of the Chicago 38, Detroit 6 spectrum. Willis McGahee lost 19-3 and had 13 carries for 34 yards. Domanick Davis lost 27-7 and got 15 for 59. Minnesota lost 37-8, and neither Michael Bennett (3 for 36, two fumbles) nor Mewelde Moore (8 for 29) was impressive. Jamal Lewis’ numbers were the ugliest: 10 yards on nine carries in Baltimore’s 25-10 loss to Tennessee.
Likewise, when your team is losing late, passing numbers spike. Brunell hooked up with Santana Moss for two late fourth-quarter TDs and some unexpectedly fantasy-worthy numbers from the Redskins. Moss had 5 catches, 159 yards and two TDs; Brunell 291 passing yards. Favre padded his stats in the fourth quarter, going from 160 yards, a TD and two picks heading into the final quarter to finishing with 342 yards and three TDs, much like Marc Bulger did rallying St. Louis against San Fran in Week 1. And Dilfer of course helped himself in the fourth too. His 614 yards are second in the league after two weeks, behind only Carson Palmer. And the Browns should be behind plenty this year, so he can throw, throw, throw. |

KJ, who had 25 carries for 87 yards in week one, this week faces a Bears defense that allowed Clinton Portis, Ladell Betts and the rest of the amazing Redskins offense to rush for 164 yards on 40 carries while the Redskins didn't even attempt to throw the ball.
With Detroit's passing game that spreads things out, Jones could be in line for a much better day against the Bears at Soldier Field. Expect him to hit that 100 yard mark and get in the end zone.

Running back, Detroit Lions
Well, John Clayton went to the Lions camp and came away saying Jones could be the best running back in the NFL this season.
| Quote: | | After rushing for only 227 yards in this first eight games while trying to shake ankle problems, Jones got hot and finished the season with 906 yards in his final eight games. At that pace, he could be an 1,800-yard running back. From the look of him on the practice field, Jones could be the league's best back this season. |
Clayton reports that Jones has gotten bigger (230 pounds) and looks fast than last season. And, he'll take over the third down role from Shawn Bryson this season, meaning he'll be on the field three plays instead of two -- which makes him more valuable to you while also making it likely he'll catch more passes than the 28 he caught last season.
