Does Jerry want to win games or justify the contract he's given, if he wants to win games he'd make sure Tony Pollard gets the ball. What we don't need is Elliott out there laboring and squandering the few holes the offensive line has opened of late.
All this Jerry calling plays and dictating who plays is ridiculous....MM has a contract....Jerry isn't gonna fire him and pay him for sitting on his butt....just ridiculous how people keep thinking this is a thing

$15 mil per year for a blocking RB. No wonder this team can’t compete.

A lot of us on here were against this move.. Cowboys gonna Cowboy though.

The Jones’s pretend to play hardball but in the end just get absolutely ripped off because market.

Look at the record we are competing and Pollard is no where near to being better than Zeke
Team will probably get waxed in the playoffs. Zeke might even be able to give us a Randle-esque 4 ypc and because his name is Zeke his fans will be overjoyed with it.

I honestly don’t know what you guys are watching. Especially when what everyone else is watching looks like it’s shot from a cannon and hits his head on the goal post.
Yeah, that's exactly what Pollard looked like between the tackles....good to see you noticed it and not just Zeke bashing.

But here is the thing…

With Pollard.. You have monster upside Everytime he touches the ball.

His downside is pretty much Zeke’s ceiling.

Explosive plays are what we need. Not Zeke’s fullback skill set that does nothing.

You know the Pollard haters were hoping he would reach the end zone on that home run or they were praying for a flag.

Do you think Pollard is a full-time back? I don’t....I like the way they are using him...maybe a few more touches....but that's it..

Pollard has run between the tackles a lot this year and has looked solid. Getting those tough yards only Zeke was able to get.
I like Pollard a lot.....he's not a bell cow. He's a great change up and, yes...he should get a few more touches....zeke is a shell of himself, but with the line playing so poorly...Dak would get killed with Pollard trying to pass block...of course, you would probably like that.

What is the fascination with bell cow? Jason Garrett sucks, remember?

I could care less if he is full time or not.

There is like 3 or 4 teams who do the full time back thing.


I still want Zeke to have a role on this team but Tony Pollard should be the featured back.

Zeke should be situational.

Heck Zeke can’t even carry the load anymore. That Zeke is gone. Asking him to carry the load and perform at a high level is no longer a thing.

I liked the play but I'm not one of Pollard's puppies if he becomes our starting running back it will not bother me a bit. He is gonna have to earn it though a few good plays does not make him better than Zeke

He is 26 and injured injuries heal Pollard is a backup and always has been
