Good for him, he deserves it. Though with his production, I don't get why they still have him splitting time. I haven't checked in a few weeks, but Jones' production wasn't near Charles' with an equal amount of carries.

He has the starting job back, according to Todd Haley, but they feel they've done a good job keeping defenses guessing by continuing to share the workload with Jones (he is still very capable back as well as a very good goal line back). It's hard to argue against that when you look at the stats, they're #1 in rushing yards per game.

Well that makes sense, given that Charles catches a lot of passes out of the backfield. I just thought the split would be more in favor of Charles than it is, cause its pretty damn close to 50/50.

Thomas Jones can't seem to keep a starting spot anywhere he goes. Almost feel for the guy.

Be that as it may, I think he's found his niche in Kansas City. He still has produced good yardage this year as well as most of the rushing TD's. I think the dual threat between him and Charles are the best thing since the wildcat with Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown. I honestly feel like if Kansas City had at least one more big threat receiver they would be a much tougher team to beat on offense.
