MM loves using his backs in the passing game..keep that in mind.Way back when, he loved using Ricky Watters in the slot at times. Telling ya, this offense will look much different.I'm really expecting Pollard to be used in the passing game to an increased degree in 2020.
The production he provided in that function last year certainly isn't likely to go unnoticed.
It may not come in terms of serving as a WR but he'll perhaps do so as a RB or slot, though.
NO Zeke is not a fossil , hes not going to be phased out , he can also catch the ball, major threat in the pass game, can block better, and oh yes a great Tailback in the run game teams still have to account for..
I like pollard, has upside and potential but zekes not a one trick pony, therefore can be an asset in any Offense..just because the last staff forgot to use the RB in the pass game on regular basis doesnt mean EE cant still be a threat like 2018..
Pollard is not better then zekes , he will be a great backup to utilize in many ways, thats it..
nope,not replace, but diversify the running game. Sorely been lacking til now.I really like Pollard, but please let's not start thinking he's going to replace Zeke. That isn't going to happen. I don't care who the coach & OC are.
I think Pollard opens up a bunch of options for our offense & I hope we take every opportunity available to screw over the defense we're facing.
Zeke is the power guy. Pollard is the explosive guy. Shame we over paid for a power back, but it is what it is.PFF gave him a better grade than Elliot. To be honest he just seems way more explosive, in Zeke's defense I doubt he could handle the volume, which typically end careers early like Zeke has.
Zeke has power and speed..but the issue has been his weight. Its been said hes dropped weight...so we shall see if its all bs or real. If he can be faster,that will add more for teams to defend.Zeke is the power guy. Pollard is the explosive guy. Shame we over paid for a power back, but it is what it is.
around the goaline and short yardage is where he will earn his money. The oline has a lot to prove too. I'm not sold on them. We must address left guard and Tyrons health.Zeke is the power guy. Pollard is the explosive guy. Shame we over paid for a power back, but it is what it is.
Will he be our jack of all trades and be lined up at wr? I feel he will be. In the NFL..the element of surprise in a new scheme and with a new mindset is key. How will teams defend us when we have you spread out? lol?Its pick your poison. Each skill guy we have can take it to the house..but Pollard is like Marshall Faulk..you better know where that guy is at all times. HELPS OUT EVERYONE on offense. CEE DEE will be great,but Pollard will be the X FACTOR THAT MAKES IT ALL WORK. Zeke may find himself phased out unless he finds a niche in short yardage and goal line. THOUGHTS?
Me too. But out of the backfield he can nudge a linebacker out of position and go for the ball.I'll be surprised if Pollard lines up at WR very often.
this^ or from the slot on slants...quick hitters. Timing throws..two step drop, then bang throw it. All about getting the ball out quickly on time. Dak is really accurate on those short routes.Me too. But out of the backfield he can nudge a linebacker out of position and go for the ball.
and we barely scratched the surface with what he can do. Whats crazy is, he's much better than first thought between the tackles. Pretty tough for a slight built guy. Reminds me also of Ty Montgomery but with monster skills and is tougher.Thread of the day!
This Pollard is a monster running or catching the ball. Boggles the mind what he could do downfield with the ball!

He will have a monster year in this scheme.Dont know if we will use alot of 4 WR sets. Will likely be mostly 11 personel. I do think in 4 WR set you may see more of him or Jarwin wide than you will a WR on the depth chart.
Good chance he remains a backup basically. Should still get 400-500 yards rushing and 100 or 200 recieving if thats the case
If we want our best possible offense he should see 50% of RB snaps

He can be and maybe used now that JG is gone. Let’s see if MM allows Moore to be inventive. The first 3 games last season I thought our Offense looked good. Lots of motion and things. I know, I know those teams were lesser teams. Just seemed that as soon as we went against better teams that JG had him calling more conservative stuff.Will he be our jack of all trades and be lined up at wr? I feel he will be.
