Do not re-sign Zeke

[CF74]

...then change the dang scheme that fits the current NFL.

Again, settling and overpaying because scouting is hard is not a valid excuse.

Zeke will be wanting money like he is a legend - you are okay with giving him that. He’s an RB in a league built for the pass.

We have Garrett and Jerry, are you a new fan?

 

[_sturt_]

Got him!!!

Well, thanks I suppose, but more importantly than getting anyone, just set the record straight, actually thanks largely to his digging out the clip, so I sincerely appreciated that.

But hoping we can now let the haters exhaust themselves trying to keep this silly thread alive, and resist posting to it.... I for one am done here.

“Since we have a bad owner and coach, i’m going to spout and support stupid crap that had our team going home empty handed”

They were 32nd in yards per carry allowed

You keep guessing, I'll keep using stats.

Last 3 games they let up under 100 rushing.

Listen goofball, unless you change your offense which this clown posse clearly won't, you add pieces to compliment it....

Go play on the highway..

Lockett and Fitzgerald don’t have a Super Bowl sin. Rice and Irvin played in different eras. Baldwin isn’t elite, which is what we are discussing

You lose. NEXT!

I made some errors there lol, but YOUR point still is not proven. Where do you see teams that don't have top level talent at most positions that are continually knocking on the door in the playoffs?

just wanted to post in here so I could contribute to a ridiculous thread that has nearly 250 posts in it

I never said teams don’t have good talent - I am asking you, at SKILL positions - how many have had elite talent there in the current era?

This league is won with elite QBs and great lines. That’s the formula. Elite RBs and WRs are luxuries

We don’t have an elite RB or line. Our D-Line is incredibly overrated as well.

You get this O-line back back to 14-16 levels and we are back in business with no other changes.

And I am telling you this offense doesn’t win Super Bowls in the modern era.

So, it’s up to the fan base to stop pretending it can and to put pressure on the organization.

Here’s a start: stop buying merchandise, stop watching the games and attending them. If you really need to watch football, there are multiple ways you can without giving money to the league

We got a Super Bowl those years? Again, this is glorifying mediocrity.

We had a top 10 QB on his last leg in 2014 but no defense. 2016, we had a great offensive line but not a great QB or defense.

But hey, at least we have Zeke who gets 300+ carries and few scores. Good for a highlight reel, I guess.

 

[32BellyOption]

He had no blocking tonight. Zeke was hit at the LOS almost every time he touched the ball.

Most reasonable fans saw this. Some fans are dumb. Lol!

Are offense will be back to 14-16 levels with a much better defense. Simple

We needed Dak to become a QB that can pass them to victory last night. He's not that type of QB unfortunately.
he needs to spend the offseason working on his accuracy of he wants to make the leap to an elite QB. IMO he has all the tools except accuracy in his passing game.

 

[Rockport]

LOL thought we were going to win a Super Bowl Rockport, what happened?

Enjoy the loss. I know that’s what you were hoping for.

The Rams are paying their RB $15 million a year. Based on tonight, I'd say they're doing fine...

Gurley is a better back. UNpoular opinion

They lost in the trenches against a bad run defense that decided to blow up our run game, Dallas should have tried misdirection, movement and the edges more but are simply to dumb, stubborn or both to do so, thus they got their arse handed to them accordingly.

You mean like the Rams did

There are a few better backs in the league than Zeke.

One is in our division...sadly.

Agree, but going by this thread, people need to think we have the best

Exactly as the Rams did...

 

[Coy]

A complete no show. Pathetic performance. Dak's TD run was more impressive than any of Zeke's runs.

Without Zeke this is a 5 win team
