Running back Julius Jones left the Dallas Cowboys to sign a free-agent contract with the Seattle Seahawks this off-season, and he’s now saying just the kind of thing that will endear him to Seattle fans and anger Dallas fans.
Jones told the Seattle Post-Intelligencer what it’s like to play in Seattle’s Qwest Field, and he said it compares favorably with the Cowboys’ Texas Stadium:
“I like it here. This is one of my favorite places to play, so I was excited about it. …
“This was definitely the best fit for me. …
“I love playing here. The atmosphere, it’s 10 times better than Dallas.
“It’s intimidating. Before the game, raising the 12th Man flag, and then the 12th Man. It’s a lot. It gives you the chills.”
Jones just earned himself some love from the fans in Seattle, and he’ll most certainly be reminded of those comments in Week 13, when the Seahawks visit Dallas.
