I hate agenda driven drivel.Something like that.

No, he wasn't, but he was the most important piece of the puzzle.Yes. The idea that Zeke is the SOLE and ONLY reason for the teams success is lunacy. What's so difficult to comprehend about that unless you have a "Dak sucks" agenda?
We do not win this game w/ an average RB.No, he wasn't, but he was the most important piece of the puzzle.
Ahhhh so you dont actually have anything to add. Dang it hahaha. I should have known better. There's statistical evidence that RBs are by far the most replaceable position in football.
I thought you actually had something to add to the forum. Unfortunate.
What else would you expect from the best rb in football.Two huge factors helped us win this game:
1)Zeke's ability to break an inside run outside and make the edge. That was an incredible run.
2)Zeke's ability to come up to the LOS w/ nothing there, and still get 2-6 yards. He did this all game and it was a monster reason why we won.
And no, absolutely no, not just any RB could have done this.

So do i.I truthfully believe that he is.
Especially if you add in that he misses very very few games.So do i.
Average to good running backs are easy to replace. You can find other average to good running backs. Elliott is not average or good. He is great. Great running backs are not easily replaced. Replace him with an average running back or even a good running back and the Dallas offense is not as good. Dallas found some average to good running backs to use once they moved on from Emmitt, but they didn't find another great running back until they drafted Elliott.

No...just stop this stupidity please.We won because Dak took over the 4th quarter and made clutch plays like he does. Zeke is a beast though but we go as far as Dak takes us.

You don't know what meat on the bone meanshe did on his 44 yard run. Saquon would have taken it to the house.
You mean 3rd and 14? What did Dak really do, though? He ran in a straight line and a couple Hawks made business decisions it looked like. It's not like he made some moves or broke strong tackles. And outside of that play...he had some bad passes (some were still effective - deep crosser to Cooper) and one turned into an INT (yes there was PI, only because the throw was so poor).That 4th & 16 run bro
He eats everything including the bone! Zek will feast on Saturday.He likes to eat! He doesn't leave meat on the bone!! Lol
I'd argue that Gurley and Hunt are great running backs, as would anyone else. And they were replaced with guys off the streets.
Might not be as good if you replace Zeke with a good running back, but the drop off would surprise you with how minimal it would be. Less than downgrading from Dak. Less than downgrading from Cooper. Less than the dropoff from losing any of our all-pro Olinemen. Without Cooper and with Zeke our offense was awful. Without Zeke in week 17 our offense was much better than we had been on average.
Using 20 year old examples when discussing running backs, knowing just how much the game has changed, doesn't add any weight at all.
Yeah, the dude amazes me with how patiently he comes to the line. Comes to a full stop then surges through a tiny crease to get 3 or 4 yards when there is really nothing there.Two huge factors helped us win this game:
1)Zeke's ability to break an inside run outside and make the edge. That was an incredible run.
2)Zeke's ability to come up to the LOS w/ nothing there, and still get 2-6 yards. He did this all game and it was a monster reason why we won.

99% of QB’s would have been ducking for cover on that play. Dak barely made it between 2 tacklers coming from both sides, then dove over a guy like Marcus Allen. That was a huge play in the game and Dak new it. There is no weakening in Dak. If you can’t admit that you are blind!!!You mean 3rd and 14? What did Dak really do, though? He ran in a straight line and a couple Hawks made business decisions it looked like. It's not like he made some moves or broke strong tackles. And outside of that play...he had some bad passes (some were still effective - deep crosser to Cooper) and one turned into an INT (yes there was PI, only because the throw was so poor).
His best play that quarter (game?) was probably the deep in by Cooper who got another 20 after the catch.
