blah....if Red Ball wants Zeke to play, I guess JJ isn't going to watch the game then

 

[Gaede]

If Romo plays, no need to hold back Zeke

 

[cml750]

Well at least we see who really is in charge around there if there were any doubts.

 

[Primetime42]

Shut up, Jerry.

 

[jazzcat22]

J vs. J...............not for them, but for this thread....

 

[Falco78]

If Zeke doesn't play then JG needs to go

 

[Arkyvarminter]

If Zeke sicks then JG needs to go

Actually if Zeke sits then JJ needs to go.

So what if Zeke Elliott doesn't play this game? Oh, and this is the wrong forum for Jerry sucks threads.

As a business man love Jerry love what he has done for the NFL.
As an owner he is great
As a GM Jerry time to ****.
Even if he orders the coach to keep a player out he should keep it inside his office.

The point of playing Zeke in a preseason game isn't so you can figure out if the kid can play or not, Jerry. So frankly, "you've seen enough" to apparently satisfy your desire to make sure the kid was worth the #4 is meaningless

The point of playing him in the preseason is allowing him to get real game action behind the first team OL against an actual opponent who you are not familiar with.

Has anyone heard the interview? Does anyone know that anyone has been circumvented as to status of injuries and useage of a player, beyond fan impatience?

He's going to sit Zeke the same way he kept Dez out of the Rams game?

How many top running backs over the past two seasons have been early on injured, and missed much of their respective seasons?

 

[Joe Realist]

Elliot should play at least 3 series.

Either way is fine by me. I would love to see him. But right now you have some fantasy owners thinking he will split carries with Morris. I wouldnt mind them keeping that thought through the draft.

Haven't you heard? Zeke's season will be RUINED if he doesn't play on Thursday night! LOL.

If RBs getting injured so frequently was a big concern, then they shouldn't have used the 4th pick on a RB.

In fact, that was an argument made by numerous people here before the draft. That given the injury situations regarding TBs, using the 4th pick on one probably wasn't a wise use of that pick.

And yet here we are, people saying you gotta be careful with TBs because they get hurt a lot. You just can't make this stuff up.

Good point. You should take about 20% of what Jerry says as actual truth.

 

[Denim Chicken]

Jerry's quote was before the Garrett press conference today that confirmed he would play. Jerry likely did not see the game plan before his interview, so was not sure if Zeke would play or not.
