Zeke not looking worthy of the 4th overall pick **merged**

[mattjames2010]

You do realize we're two games in, right? I think you should bark up another tree. If every player was judged on two games...they all would be average.

And I am criticizing his performance in just those two games. In his first two games, he has looked very average in one (His words as well) and helped kill the momentum in the second. The criticism and disappointment is warranted.

Emmitt Smith rookie year avg 58.6 yds per game and 3.9yds per carry. You might be a tad premature with your prediction. I see him getting better each game.

Why do people enjoy saying dumb stuff on a message board?

What an immaculately stupid thread.

 

[Broges74]

He'll be fine. A top notch back if not an elite back. You guys are crazy for even using the w9rd bust this early. Don't you guys understand its been two games and he has gotten better from game one to game two?

Please get a grip and please grow some patience. Wooooowwwwww

Emmitt after two games of his VERY GOOD career had a total of 8 carries 13 yards. Hmmm....how did that turn out? I'm not saying he's Emmitt (before you even go there). I'm saying you can't judge how good a player will be after two games...his first two at that.

I don't care myself how good he could be. Morris is really good. We have plenty without elliot. Ramsey or trade down for multiple picks would of helped more likely.

Since when did any of our trading down ever work?

Elliot was a fine pick.

 

[Stash]

Yup, that's called being a fan.

 

[erod]

Remember Jalen Ramsey?

He's down, 21-0 in the first half.

 

[BoysfanfromCanada]

I'm not too worried about him. He'll learn. We haven't even been able to see what he can do on a screen pass or pass protection because the coaches think Dunbar is better for that role.

Emmitt was on a piss poor 1990 team behind a shoddy offensive line in a different era. He also didn't have a single game where he fumbled more than once. He ended with 4 fumbles. Aikman wasn't helping Smith out much either.

Completely different situation here. I don't know what else to say, he has looked average and Elliott agrees. He's certainly not going to praise himself, and shouldn't, for fumbling twice and killing momentum in the second half.

If he improves, cool. But as of now, all the heat he is getting is deserved and he will continue to get it until he improves.

Are those TDs on him? Because, there are other players on defense. He's also playing a tough position.

We have ZERO deep threats on this team. Both the Giants and Commanders stacked 7, 8 and 9 men into the box most of the game. You can't make a living in the NFL running into those type of fronts.

That's because Dak doesn't strike fear into defenses with the passing game. Particularly, the deep passing game.

Let the homers deal with the fact that the guy who should be leading the league in rushing based on the investment got himself benched in the 4th quarter with the game on the line.

He's given up a lot.

I'm not gonna rip on you because I have the feeling you're younger - but that is such a reactionary statement it's ridiculous - and I'm not saying I wouldn't have made the same type of post too when I was younger.

As hard as it is - you have to be patient. He was better this week than he was last week and the fumbles are something he never did in college but I'm sure he is well aware of.

He is gonna explode with Romo - just hang in there.

Stash - c'mon man you're better than that - he'll be fine. It's his second game of his career. Don't be that guy.
