Twitter: Beware of Tony Pollard

[RonnieT24]

I cant disagree with you, Im just praying and have been that Moore can discover a RBBC.
Zeke gets snap counts because he is the best in the backfield at picking up blitz/free man.. Daks last line of defense.
The only way Moore gets out of that preprogramed agenda is with some edge play and give the 49ers some of their own medicine.
Defenses have honed in on Zeke and his value to this offense. Its been a glaring red flag.

It's mind boggling how many people refuse to accept this simple fact. The QB makes $40 million a year and the OC wants to pass 80% of the time.. So you simply CANNOT have a running back out there who misses blitz pickup as often as Pollard does.. Granted he has gotten better every year he's been in the league but the fact remains he's not as good as Zeke at that essential skill and until he is he's going to sit more than he's going to play and people on the zone are just going to have to whine and deal with it.

Or he'd be hurt.. kinda like Mostert, Mitchell and all the other guys who the Niners have trotted out there the past 5 seasons..

Id rather play healthy RBs any day over 1 legged.

Zeke playing through his injury isn’t the feather in his cap that you think it is. He’s awful. Give me a healthy Pollard, Clement, Ito, or whoever else you got back there over a slow plodding Zeke.

 

[CATCH17]

Which games did we lose because Zeke got too many carries?

No.. It’s the games that’s we run him and he does nothing.

The Cardinals can’t stop the run but Zeke was so bad everytime he got the ball that they just stopped.

Just like KC and all the others. He’s not productive.

I can't wait to watch him get 6 carries for 50 yards while Zeke gets 13 for 40.

As long as the Boys win Connor could get more carriers and I'd be happy.

True, but Moore has to pick and choose wisely now.
Its a tell to the defense if 3rd and long when Zeke is in its for pass blocking.
Moore has to flip the script now.
I pounded the table to draft another RB or acquire one,, but went on deaf ears here.

Why do you hate Dak?

 

[atlantacowboy]

In his limited opportunities, he's been a better player than Zeke this year. But, Dallas is always going to play the big contract guys. So, I expect more of the same ......Zeke dives into the middle of the DL for 3-4 yards and a LOT of Dak throwing the ball.

 

[CATCH17]

I like Dak. His contract makes him awful value.

We had several weeks to discover some depth at RB and Moores play book expansion.
Lets hope that a 1 week coming out party was knocking off some rust.
SF hasnt been preparing for a versatile Cowboys backfield, because its just been revealed.

We know

That message is for the San Francisco 49ers.

TP will wipe the 49ers clean.

That's a winding *** answer.. Which games did we lose because Zeke got the ball too much? It's a simple question .. The Cardinals stopped the run against us by knifing into our backfield because our line had its collective head up you know where and Kellen Moore refused to accept that Dalton Schultz wasn't ever going to block Chandler Jones. They had 4 TFLs against us. or was it 5? on 12 running back carries. Yeah.. that was Zeke's fault. We didn't block worth a damn. But Zeke's 8 or 9 carries were what lost us the game right?

Like warrick Dunn and Mike alstott

It's going to be a pass no matter who is in the game on 3rd and long. If Moore wants to flip the script he will get back to running the ball like he did during the streak.. If he does that, this offense will be fine.. and both backs will be productive.

 

[CATCH17]

We know

I guess the guy asking didn’t.

 

[atlantacowboy]

I like Dak. His contract makes him awful value.

Ah, his value relative to that new contract will be reset if he actually gets this team to GB. I don't care if he's 9-8 if he goes 4-0 or 3-1 in the postseason.

It would erase all doubts for everyone. Like the Rams going all in. If they win the SB it was all worth it even though they have no 1st round picks etc

This is when Qb's make their money. Aikman was money in January.

It's your post and you can 'Cry if you want to'...

Depends on 3rd and long,, are you opposed to running the ball on 3rd and 5yd?
