Twitter: Zeke "I want to say I’m sorry."

Zeke go hang out with Prescott and let us at least try in Big D to make a season out of it.....

Yeah, like Dak's the problem. Your hero, Dalton, looked appalling. Your Dak statements have no bearing.

 

[Floatyworm]

hes damaged goods. Trade him

Honestly....I don't think anybody would take him. Name one team....He's in the same boat as Le'veon Bell. Nobody wants that contract.

Hey Zeke, we're sorry too. Sorry Jerruh was stupid enough to colossally overpay you only to watch you hand the ball over to the other team over and over

 

[robjay04]

I won’t defend him again.

His position and investment should never have a negative impact on the game. I felt like this too much with him recently and I won’t again.

He is in for a rude awakening this season. I really think Dak was able to protect him since they came into the league. Zeke could always hide behind Dak's shield and Dak was okay with it as the QB and vocal leader of the team.

Revisionist history. Lol Dak saves Dak protects lol there was nothing different about this game than any other game we played. Nothing.

Exactly, go pamper your boy and let Pollard get some reps.

The maddest I have been in a while with this team is when Zeke came back on the field after his 2 fumbles. If McCarthy kept him on the bench then I would have been ok with the loss.

Radio DJ: "This is a call in dedication from one of our broken hearted fans tonight."

Radio DJ: "It is dedicated to what remains of the once great Ezekiel Elliott of the once proud Dallas Cowboys football team."

Radio DJ: "Here you are, broken hearted fan. This one is for you .."

Sorry? For what, his lack of passion for the game? He has cashed in and his best years are behind him. Oh, he will still have that game or three where we all say “he’s back!” yet he still won’t be. I don’t think he cares about his legacy with the Dallas Cowboys.

Its admirable an all. But dude, just hang on to the ball. Go watch Tiki Barber. dude was a fumbler first part of his career, changed how he held the rock... wasn't a fumbler back half of his career.

Pollard looked better, and even had some good blocks. Thanks for teaching him to block, Zeke. Dear NFL, who wants this 90M dollar player that is making a 0% difference for this team.

I am a fan of Zeke. This hurts me to post. Bottom line, this is on our GM. Pay players that make a bad game hopeful. At this point, Dak deserves the money more. At least he puts it all out there on the field (not to say he'll make a difference at this point, but he's certainly not responsible for these L's).

Elite players do not often make unforced errors.

Elite GM's do not often make unforced errors.

If only fumbles were his biggest problem. The lack of explosion and making anyone miss and his half hearted pass blocking are bigger issues to me.

He is done IMO.

 

[triplets_93]

Zeke, enjoy the money, but not the fame. You will never be in the HOF.

 

[Bullflop]

Zeke is good about saying the right things but not about doing what must be done to maintain his performance.

Does he tend to get complacent and lazy, once he's paid? It surely does seem that way.

 

[beware_d-ware]

Zeke said the same thing about "accountability" when he fumbled twice vs Atlanta. Just goes to show it's empty talk. He doesn't show up ready to play.

 

[bigE79]

They were saying on the radio that he needs to get rid of the long sleeves.. brodious was saying that runningbacks need to be able to feel the contract with the ball and that the sleeves were hindering that...I think it makes sense.

 

[Aven8]

Dude needs a Psychiatrist. He can’t throw back to the Mound anymore

 

[Floatyworm]

We have now reached the conspiracy part of the season.....

This "Zeke is fumbling because sleeves" stuff feels like some bad memory on y'all's part. Long Sleeve Zeke & Long Sleeve Dak was, like, a capital "T" Thing in 2018 when they won 7 of 8. I dunno why he can't hold on to the ball. But I don't think it's that.

 

[Idgit]

Zeke is not longer a special player. Backs have short lifecycles in this league. Which is why it was a mistake to draft him and a bigger mistake to overpay him.
