Is Zeke Cowboys life on the line these last 3 weeks?

[Aviano90]

I can't answer that...and you know it. Zeke suspended for 6 games.....because of Jerry and GODell feud.

Please don't be intellectually dishonest. You are better than that.

Zeke didn;t start until week 8...finished in the top 10 and almost a thousand yards.

Hold on here. You are the one who tried to lay a trap by trying to equate #1 ranking with being the best. Don’t try to project your deceitful tactic on me because I exposed it. If I wanted to deal with this type of tactic I could just go watch it occur on MSM daily. You are better than that.

 

[Aviano90]

your record is perfect

ALWAYS WRONG

Being “always wrong” in the eyes of morons typically is a badge of honor for me. But I scanned over a handful of your posts and you’re just a Corky. I have nothing to gain engaging with your stupidity.

 

[Seth5545]

Naw hes got another year than hes gone.

 

[Cowpolk]

....not happening. JJ and Franchise not allowing the guy to rest to get healthy, says alot.

Means they need him on the field

 

[Beaker42]

No.

Because for the billionth time, his contract basically precludes them from cutting him until after the 2022 season.

I do it the exact second after our last game of the 2022 season. Send the Ewok back to the moon of Endor.

 

[Thomas82]

No, and he'll be here for longer than people expect.

 

[Thomas82]

Zeke will be here until he retires

Tell 'em!!

 

[805BoysInBlue]

I think next year will be his last year as a Cowboy

 

[AbeBeta]

This’ll be two straight years without 1000. I still believe he’s elite when healthy but I think their not resting him will give justification for cutting him next year. Resting him even one game would’ve helped his knee and he’d easily get 1000 yards. Thoughts?

He's playing through a big injury and out there taking most of the pass rush block snaps.

He's not sitting because he's the best blocking RB in the game.

Y'all just don't get it if you make him the problem.

We are stuck with Zeke through the 2022 season.

According to the medical staff, which is exceptional, there's no further damage that physically can be done to limit Zeke's performance. Other teams are doing their best to stop him, and they're being frustrated in that attempt. Let's see what happens before panicking needlessly. He's OK and Pollard is performing well enough to maintain his success. As long as things proceed without further injury, we'll be fine. Let's relax and just hope for continued success, before assuming the worst will happen.

 

[Cmac]

Means they need him on the field

Would that mean he's valuable, contrary to what the Board thinks, or TPollard is not viewed as the RB, contrary to what the Board thinks?

 

[ultron]

Take a look at his contract, he’s not going anywhere this off-season but next off-season is a different story.

You picked a season when Zeke was out 6 games. And then ask me to compare him to full season RB's.

That is intellectually dishonest to this discussion.

But of course in terms of total yards and rankings....he's 10th. How convenient for your argument! VERY CLEVER!

But...if you use YOUR OWN CRITERIA.....he was dam good for those 10 games. But he was of course not an NFL rushing champ and I never claimed he was in 2017. But here you are arguing it. This is why we can't have nice things.

Deceitful? How? By picking an exception to prove your point? Um that was you. Your attempt to turn it back on me...hilarious.

SO let's all do our best to cheer him on. You know...Dallas Cowboys Football Team Fans and all?

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

You are pretty much denying your own eyes. Zeke is paid a lot of money by the Jones family. They are going to press the current coaches to "try" to make Zeke successful as possible. I understand BUT Pollard so far has been better no matter how you analyze it since he donned a Cowboys uniform. Pollard averages 5.6+ yards per carry no matter the situation to Zekes 4.4. Pollard has NEVER averaged lower than Zeke in any season so far. He also averages 8+ yards per catch to Zeke's 5+. Everyone wants Zeke to be better given his rookie year and pre-Cabo mantra but he's just not that amazing! It is what it is!!

But your eyes are only looking at the plays designed for Tony being a #2 "change of pace".

If you want him to assume #1 that's a MUST change. Gonna have to open the playbook and run up the middle...a lot. And block for a porous O-line. A LOT!

And you have ZERO idea how that's going to work out. Tony has never done it...in the NCAA or NFL.

If you want it to happen...fine. But being hard-headed about assured results is ridiculous.

My goodness. Need a replay of our conversation? You are the one that tried to ask a clever question about our offense being ranked #1 when my comment had nothing to do about our offense, it pertained to Zeke. You then tried to claim Zeke was the best RB in 2018 because he was the yards leaders. You’re the one trying to equate a ranking based on yards as being the best, not me. I was simply providing one obvious counter argument that makes it clear total yards leaders doesn’t mean best.

Zeke was not the best RB in 2018. He was the rushing leader. People behind him on the list played better than he did. I know you disagree, you disagree with all criticism of Zeke, probably because you and he are Buckeyes, but don’t accuse me of trying to be dishonest in this conversation. Wasn’t me who was playing games.

 

[b0xZZ]

No.

I don't believe he is elite when healthy at this point. He looks like he's stuck in mud. He'll never be elite again, but I don't think he's gone after this season.

Agreed, not an elite back and hasn't been in some time. Way overpaid and Pollard is better for much cheaper.

No it won't
