Yeah ok Elliott. You're nothing but a disappointment to this franchise. Can't wait till you're gone in 2023 & the real #1 takes over, Pollard. Only reason you're still the starter is because Jerry doesn't want to see $90 million sitting. Nothing like taking yourself out of preseason games. Primadonna at it's finest!

Pollard is NOT A #1 RB
Zeke haters need to realize this.

Since he came into the NFL, no RB has more yards than Zeke. I also believe total yards form LOS he is #1 or near it.

He also is tied with Emmitt Smith and a few others for most consecutive seasons with 1200 or more yards from LOS at 6 season. He gets that this season, he will be alone in 1st place on that list.

Zeke is on his way to a HOF career stat wise. But many do not want to admit it.
Go look at some of the RB's in the HOF and their stats. Zeke can get there.
Most running backs enshrined in the HOF rushed for at least 11,000 yards.
There are a dozen or so players who were selected with considerable less yards --- but their caeers predate the 1980s.
Two exceptions - Earl Campbell (1978-85) and Terrell Davis (1995-2001).

He's got 7386 now.

Is Roger Craig in the HOF?

Every single guy that got to 12000 career rushing yards is in the hall with the exception being Gore whom will be. Zeke would need 4614 to get to that mark. He's only 27, If he continues to play and his body holds up he can still reach that.

Poor Zeke if he only had a QB that the defenses feared how much better his chances for both.
Hey, 21 thanks for the memories but too many carries and hits have you almost at the end......:(

Its a shame, cause he carried this franchise in daks early years. He put this team on his back, and also was a big reason we returned to the playoffs. It aint his fault the owner couldn't put together a quality team around him. Just like the Romo days.

Dumb post. He does have the talent and he has NOT gotten lazy. He plays as hard and tough as any player in the league. You sure you actually watch football?

Yeah, he's not what he used to be, but if he stays healthy and puts together another good few years, I think he has an outside shot at HOF. I still think he's a great talent. But a RB will go as far as his OL will allow him.

Few running backs in the history of the NFL have given up their bodies to play as physical as Zeke has throughout his career. And by all accounts one of the hardest workers on the team.

Cowboys “fans”….. :thumbup:
well you can make excuses for him, or whatever, but his speed that he had in 2016 was gone by start of 2017 season,.
guess he didnt work hard enough to keep that going.
He then showed up overweight and out of shape for 2017-19, just poor offseason work ethic.

Thing is had he had more desire to be great, or less of an ego, and better work ethic, he could have been that 2016 guy for at least 3 seasons.

Don’t you think some of that has to do with his running style?if you watch his rookie season he wa hurdling and battering ram on people when there was opportunity to get down. That catches up with you quick . I’m reminded a little of his highly public run on Kam chancellor. A message was sent to the league but it’s also hard on the body
Dez Bryant had the same thing happen to him he was overly physical and it expedites the process of the body breaking down

I didn't notice any drop off in his play until 2019. Wasn't he the rushing leader in 2018? An overweight and out of shape rushing leader?
