Cowboys fans are idiots. You should be used to it by now.

Zeke has a better oline, better qb, and better passing game and still put up worse stats than McCaff. No sane person thinks he's as good as McCaff other than stupid Cowboy fans.
Well I wouldn’t call them all stupid, there’s a lot of people in here smarter than myself and they bring up some great points but a lot are blinded by the Star so they are hypocritical and irrational when it comes to defending their best players.

Never pay one when he's on your own team I guess. When someone else gets it, he "deserves" it. Just like Tannehilll deserves his new deal and Dak won't whatever it is, lol.
Dak deserves a new deal. Just not being the highest paid player in the league.

Let me know when Mccaffrey wins his first playoff game. Biggest game of his life and he rushes for 16 yards in the playoffs against the freaking Saints LMAO. Let me know when he makes 3 probowls. All those yards and still had a losing record. Keep touting your 1 year wonder though. You're making this too easy man :laugh:

Team success? LOL

Just shows how desperate you are. As if that ever proved who the great RB's were.

Jim Brown I guess he sucked too right?

Clueless HOMER. Zeke is getting roasted all over this thread.

In 2019 this is correct.
CMC was demonstrably better. On a trash team that scored insanely few points.

And yes having crap at WR helps you get 140+ targets in the passing game. If a Rb is 2nd in the entire league in pass receptions your offense sucks.
As was obvious by the 2nd fewest scored in the NFC.

CMC is really, really good and he MAY be heading to a better career than Zeke but right now he has one season where he was better and he did that for a trash can offense.

Every fan base has "a lot of people with good points."

It's about percentage. The Cowboys and Lakers have by far the stupidest fan bases. Yankees probably not too far behind.

Zeke touched the ball 50 less times than McCaffrey in 2019 and was still asking to be taken out. Zeke averaged less ypc than McCaffrey who had an offensive line that was ranked 17th compared to 2nd.

McCaffrey had over 1,000 yards receiving AND over 1300 yards rushing just last year. BTW, not only did Zeke have less yards rushing but he touched the ball more times as well.

How anyone can say they would rather have Zeke at this point is mind boggling unless you’re just a big fan of Star Wars and fantasize of Ewoks wearing the Star.

I will say this. You don't like Zeke but calling him deragatory names just invalidates y
Been doing it fine for 2 out of 3 years and being his first year was his rookie year and they didn’t use him like they should have that remains to be seen. Not to mention, this injury free crap is just that. All it takes is one freak accident, or one pulled hammy and Zeke could be out for the season. More than likely it will happen to him at some point in his career.

So, are you agreeing with me, or disagreeing with yourself?

With the weapons we have Zeke should not have to touch the nearly as much as CM. And for you that keeps saying Zeke's line is better than his, you know what he better tell that billionaire owner of his? Get me an OL like Zeke's do a better job of drafting. You are the same guy that said the same in the Barry and ES debate.
I don’t recall how involved I got in the Barry ES debate but it’s not an uncommon one and there’s no doubt in my mind Barry would have had much better success behind the Cowboys O line than Detroits.

And the point is whether CM should demand a better O line, the point is he hasn’t had one since his rookie year, whereas Zeke has had arguably the best his rookie year, 2nd best run blocking last year, and top 5-10 the prior two years yet CM still put up better or comparable numbers. How is that even debatable?

I guess you don’t remember what happens when Zeke doesn’t get the ball, people complain that we should be giving it to him more because “he’s the best” and “he’s a workhorse” and “that’s what we paid him for”. So which is it? Did we just pay the second highest RB in the league to sit on the sidelines or carry the ball?

Again, it’s excuses after excuse. So many of you talk out of both sides of your mouth to defend him under any circumstance. I can’t wait for this clown to leave, we’ll be just fine as long as we keep a top O line.

And yet I seem to know how the season is going to pan out more often than you. Or have you forgotten how I made you change your signature last time you tried to bet me? I see you haven't ever tried to challenge me again since then :laugh::laugh:
Last thing I remember is you putting me on ignore because you couldn't handle me slapping you around the board like a chump. :lmao::lmao::lmao2:

You clearly run from a fight. Anytime you would like to make bets just come on over. I never run from a good bet.

You have been predicting top 5 defenses for 7 years and its never happened.

How many players has your HOMER stance made a mockery of you?

Just look at what you are claiming now?

That Zeke is better than a RB that had over 2300 yards and 19 TD's with over 110 receptions.

I’m already invalidated when I call him by his name and use stats to back up my position so I really don’t care. Not to mention, who says an Ewok is a derogatory name? Most Star Wars fans love Ewoks! People have made references to characters I look like and I don’t take offense, I laugh because it’s true.

As far as agreeing, to what? No offense, but I’m fielding about 100 different responses here. Think I found it. I think McCaffrey will be fine because he doesn’t run like Zeke.

The Cowboys without a doubt have the dumbest fan base in all of sports history.

Some of the dumb things on here I have heard makes no sense whatsoever.

Putting Garrett in the same sentence is Zeke and Dak is an insult to both Zeke and Dak.

But signing Zeke did not cost us Byron. The Dolphins giving up 17 million cost us Byron. The Cowboys have the cap space to sign Byron right now. They had it even prior.

And the Panthers have been spending money galore this offseason. They just gave Robby Anderson and Teddy Bridgewater big money. I don't see how the situations are different honestly.
.

you’re missing the Forrest from the trees brother. The panthers spent that money before extending McCafrey. They got their QB and WR and then extended him. We extending zeke first and to this point still haven’t signed Dak and lost Byron. The Dolphins or nobody else get to offer Byron that kind of money if we don’t let him hit FA. And having the money to do something and being able to afford it are two different things. not to mention teddy and Robby combined come in lower than what Dak is going to cost, and that’s before factoring in Amaris 100 mil. Wholly different

but throw out all that other stuff, the root of it is zeke demanding you get paid early and the panthers willingly paying mccaffrey early.

if things played out differently and the a Cowboys said from jump “our offseason priority is to sign zeke now” more power to him. But holding out and forcing their hands is different.

So you believe the Cowboys aren't capable of signing more than one player at a time even though they signed Jaylon Smith and La'el Collins to long term deals right before they gave Lawrence his deal and then gave Zeke his deal? I'm confused by what you're saying about the timing?

Byron was never coming back here. He was always going to test free agency. Byron himself said the decision to let him go wasn't about money.

You're blaming Zeke's contract as if it hurt them in regards to Dak and it didn't. Dak and Cooper were always betting on themselves. Byron was always testing free agency.

McCaffrey has been in the league 3 years now. You had ample opportunity to watch him.
I've seen him for 3 years. Wasn't impressed with the 1st year, 2nd year impressed with his ability to offer things in the passing and rushing game...far better rusher than I expected....and year 3 he was All-world. Two good years ain't it man. That's how you sign David Johnson type contracts.

LMAO what kind of bs is this?

1. Zeke barely got any criticism.
2. What little he did get was for holding out and showing up to the team out of shape.

Let this sink in.


"Zeke barely got any criticism".....

Next sentence:

"What little he did get was for holding out and showing up to the team out of shape".....

So I say he got "criticized" and you scream "BS" just to say he got criticized. I'm not even going to waste time with this. Apology accepted.

LOL...……...ok so McCaffrey didn't have the greatest Oline. Doesn't change the argument one bit.

One thing is for sure is he didn't have the Cowboys line.
How would you know? Let's be honest...you don't know how good their offensive line is.
