He reached 22 miles this week in a work out. Stop sleeping on his speed. He’s probably faster than pollard. He just weighs more and doesn’t have a faster 5 yard burst.

Only thing Pollard has on Zeke, is he is shiftier, quicker on his cuts.
Zeke will bounce back, just needs to stay healthy, but they all do.
Even Pollard with his heel issue. That is harder to overcome and not to reoccur as opposed to slight knees sprains or tears.

Give him 16-18 Carrie’s , but more importantly, limit his blocking. He gets hit on blocks. Let his contact come mostly on runs and catches.

He’s 27. Guys get smarter at 27. Let this year play out.

This isn’t about him trying to play smart. He’s 27 with a lot of mileage on him. This is what he is. Unless a hole opens up it takes some quickness and burst to break into the open field and he has neither.

He looked plenty fast to start off last year. Maybe he just wears down quickly? If it was all about top speed TP wouldn't be the better big play threat. Zeke ain't housing a damn thing. It's been that way for awhile now.

Like we talked about in this same exact thread at the TOTP, Zeke hasn’t ran 22 since his freshmen year of college when he weighed 195. Fat Mike was straight up lying to give y’all something to talk about.
