News: TSD: Ezekiel Elliott admits he needs to improve his play going forward

[Melonfeud]

He cant make guys miss in the hole, or the open field, and cant break many tackles. All he can do is run downhill and fall forward for an extra yard. He looks nothing like the back from 2016. Newsflash, folks: he ain't getting better as a RB in his 4th season.

* Well,now, me being the stooge to stand in behalf upon the defense of his displayed abject flaccidity of his ol' gun action of out&up& ready fer' the initial resistance to his probing,which once used to lead to the deep penetration of his footballish type thrusts,,,er,,, till that long ago pre-planned payday, he'd done strong armed extorted came to fruition,,, he is a surprisingly adequate 20 yard downfield sideline receiver. when he's only utilized once every other game in that one schemed play.yea,Zeek21

 

[Melonfeud]

You are so wrong, fans always overreacting .. part of obtaining METNAL FOCUS is accepting defeat and feeling the pain, while still maintaining composure... he is showing all the signs of bouncing back for the long haul. Let’s go!!!!

lmao

Ya, all of that there "METNAL FOCUS" is certainly what's shiney &bright fer' one to take away ,upon viewibility of his seasons efforts thus far ,,,

I'm not ready to write Zeke off.

 

[Walker]

Dude wanted to get paid so he can become lazy. Not getting paid meant another year of hard work.

 

[MysteryIceGuro]

He’s tanking with the rest of the team. No doubt about it. He’ll be back in prime mode next season with a new HC, fresh new rookies, injury free players, and an easier schedule due to placing around 3rd or 4th in the division during the 2019 season

I thought about that too until I saw how the rest of this team was playing from weeks 4-6. It isn’t just Zeke not living up to standards/disappointing people, it’s everyone to a certain extent. They are tanking and it’s beyond obvious at this point. I have a theory that it may actually be Kellen Moore calling the plays, but he’s calling them badly to purposefully lose. Him and this team agreed on the fact that they wanted JG gone, so they came together to create an atrocity of a team. They look like they “try” in the 2nd half to avoid the “tanking” name/mentality from the NFL, however, it’s not hard to figure out.

 

[Beast_from_East]

He has his millions now. Why should he care

You could say that about quite a few players on this team, not just Zeke.

Name me one guy that got paid and is balling right now...……….cant think of one.

 

[Whyjerry]

Mental midget!!! Lol!!! He's gonna make over 100 million!!!!! You're more a mental midget than he is.

He is a professional athlete. I don’t have a 100 million but I do quite alright thank you very much. Btw - he is a mental midget.

Maybe Moore wants JG gone so he can take over as HC. You know Jerry will do something splashy like that.

I just moved to Vegas, great city.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

He’s being paid elite money for the position yet he can’t make people miss, beat a defender to an angle, or get to the second level?

We’ve got a glorified power back.

 

[Hot_Toddy]

Glad he saw what others did on that run that he wants back.

It takes a man to admit any errors and correct them.

His heart and mind are in the right place for sure! And he has the talent to keep this team moving forward.

Our placement will change exactly 2 games on the schedule. Lol

 

[ColoradoCowboy]

The way that he runs, he is searching for contact. So he has bulked up a bit and worked on his strength. But this has affected his speed and agility.

He is missing the FACT that he was already plenty strong enough and that it was his speed, agility, and vision that he needed to work on.

La’el Collins. He’s the only one.

 

[Idgit]

I know just which play he’s talking about, and thought the same thing in real time. Take it outside, and it was probably 6.

ikr?

You would be surprised how many otherwise intelligent people don't understand that the entire NFL scheduling was changed during the last realignment in 2002. I mean, it has only been 17 years. All but 2 of your games are planned on a rotating, known, set, schedule. Exactly TWO games per year are based on your order of finish the previous year and the divisions from which you will play those two games are also already scripted. Still shaking my head at how many people simply do not know this.

 

[BHendri5]

That’s leadership everyone on the team is saying that

 

[Cmac]

I think someone should come up with a new rating for Running backs......RBR.....that way he can look good even when the film says otherwise.....like Dak & the QBR constantly spewed by Skip Bayless.
