Zeke has been in the top 10 in just about every meaningful rushing stat every year he's been in the league.. but because YOU want it to be mediocre we can just ignore that.. You cannot use "mediocre" and top 10 in the same sentence. Total yards, yards per carry, touchdowns, carries.. he's been among the tops in the league his entire career .. He led the league in rushing twice when he had a good line.. I'd love to hear how that rates as "mediocre." Even this year when he is stinking it up by his standards he's still at or near the top 10 in all the production categories. He's 7th in carries, 7th in yards, 6th in TDs, 8th in yards after contact, 10th in broken tackles. That should tell you just how great this guy is.. He's having far and away the worst year of his career.. and still sits in the top 10 in all these rankings. And I think we can all agree that the line has been garbage for him all season. Zeke's only problem this year has been the fumbling and the inexplicable pass drops. Well some of it can indeed be explained.. He's getting crappy blocking and is trying to compensate by playing differently and has gotten caught up trying to do too much. If Zeke is top 10 while having the worst year of his life, what does that say about the 40-50 backs ranked below him in all these categories?
Lol, so it’s SB or bust? By those standards, zeke is a scrub. Speaking of, CJ did make zeke look like a scrub in that playoff game.
I love how you use play calling stats to back up your claim.
So you equate volume to being the best? There’s plenty of other RB’s who had much worse O lines yet had the same or more ypc but because of the play calling or other offensive players on their team they didn’t get the ball as much or they would have won the meaningless rushing title, which is almost always a direct result of total carries which is a direct result of play calling. By that standard, Demarco Murray was a much better RB than zeke.
TD’s?! Bwahahahahaha...yeah, that makes you elite when your handed the ball at the two yard line. Again, most TD’s are nothing but a result of play calling. I guess if teams have players like Dez, Kittle, Witten, etc or other red zone threats and the ball gets spread around more than whoever their RB is should be “penalized” for not getting as many TD’s as some scrub they may bring in for plays on the 5 yard line. What game was it that Dak had two rushing TD’s from the 1-2 yard line and zeke had only one? I guess that means Dak is a better rusher.
He’s actually 9th in yards and 7th in attempts, if he was that good he should have more yards than attempts. Again, his yards are a direct result of his attempts and there are several RB’s with less attempts and more yards. His ypc average isn’t even top 10, where do you come up with this crap?

One last question, remember the ~7 links to articles about zeke I posted for you? Did you read a single one? I noticed you never replied, do I need to post them again or do you just want to continue to ignore them like all his other fan boys?
