Next man up. If that happens, I expect winning results still. Tired of excuses for losing. Lets keep this thing going.Get Ric Dowdle into the fold.

If I'm not mistaken Dowdle was placed on IR before the season started.. which means he must spend the entire season there.

Giants will try 2 load the box and blitz Dak and stop Zeke. If I'm Dallas I just let Dak stand back there and carve them with 3 step drops and quick releases..lots of bubble screens and slants. Quick hitters. The Gmen will come in aggressive. Use that against them. screen em 2 death.

Zeke has never missed a game due to injury and never should have missed a game for any reason... most bogus suspension in NFL history.

Most durable back in the NFL.

Zeke did sit out one game last year because of the calf injury. Though I suspect had the Cowboys been playing a team better than the dumpster fire 49ers and their third string QB he probably would not have missed that one.

Corey Clement.
TY. Thats right. I recall signing him now. He's a very serviceable rb. Great little back that can catch. Fits what we wanna run. I say lets make him active and get him 3-4 touches.

I think he has been active every game already.. because he's a pretty good special teamer in addition to being a decent 3rd down back.

LMAO... Zeke loves to play the game.. I'm sure you know as well as I do that if he were to miss this game he'd be the biggest cheerleader for Pollard all game long. Surely you guys understand team sports at least that well?
You think Jaylon walked into Mac's office and said, " hey coach, go ahead and cut me. Because I think the team will be better off without me."

Truth is...at the end of the day Human Nature supercedes team sports. Just saying. So all of that cheering Zeke would be doing, would just be superficial. AKA gold plated emotions.

I don't know how you can equate being cut from a team from being sat down for an injury. If the Cowboys had told Jaylon they were going to put him on IR because of injury he might have protested but he would have been okay with it in the interest of the team. Being released outright is a horse of a different color. In the former scenario you still get to be and feel like you are part of the team and feel like you can help.. in the latter you are told you are not welcome to be part of the team and you can't help.. VERY different situations.

Oh, I was just saying that at the end of the day, it's ever man for himself. Human Nature.
