Not all on Zeke tonight, but it was an unispiring effort and he never left first gear.

They really need to mix Pollard in more as the change of pace back and call more designed Prescott runs. Cook killed us but the Vikings also got some nice plays from their backup RB.

Did you see the Giant game that is exactly what happened. I guess Zeke needs semi holes to be successful.
Giants game?
Didn’t Barkley have 19 carries today for a total of 1 yard?
Stop it man. Everyone needs holes, this isn’t high school.

Gave dak plenty of time. Not their fault the fool zeke can’t bounce outside or break a tackle.

There's a difference between pass blocking and run blocking. Surely, even in your apparent infantile knowledge of the game, you understand that?

Zeke had nowhere to run tonight.

Yeah, Zeke's fault we gave up 28 points. Our <expletive> <expletive> fans who don't understand football any more than my grandma.

If a team is selling out to stop the run and you choose to go to the run, there's a problem. Zeke can't do what he used to so he can't be relied on to get the yards unless there's a gaping hole.

Zeke has lost a lot of tread on his tires. We’ve now seen multiple big games where he played terrible, just like the playoff loss against the Rams.

Zeke continues to get worse. Dak continues to get better.

The wrong player got paid.

Absent run blocking will do that......but I think Zeke is suppose to get yards even when defenders are whipping our OL.....all night....all night long.

What a pathetic performance, crowned by an unearned vote of confidence with the game on the line. Yuck

Looked like an average rb. Couldn't do anything after getting touched by a DL.

He had no burst whatsoever.

This is concerning.

Dak and cooper , our two most valuable players remain unsigned. Zeke holds out and gets rewarded with a blank check. And jsmith gets extended and is playing bad at times as well.

And th Joneses have the nerve to publicly say Dak needs to work with them and take a smaller deal. Why should he? He's played for chump change his whole career and never complained. But u give Zeke what he wants when he holds out.

Vikes gameplan was to shut the running game down and they did. Oline got dominated, they get dominated against good teams way too often. They all should take a pay cut except Collins

Running Zeke outside is a waste even with good blocking.

What was cooks numbers before he started getting huge holes in the 2nd half? He had less yards than Zeke. Oline was about as bad as Chido tonight. They can’t open up a hole/holes vs good teams

Watch the game before you talk.

We kept forcing the run. Pollard lost 4 yards on his only carry and there was nowhere for Zeke to run. We should have kept throwing the ball they couldn’t stop it! All the plays we made tonight were in the passing game. With the game on the line we continued to try and force the run and it put us in a hole.

I am not saying he wasn't trash but they could have designed better running plays for him. Look at Cook, he almost ran with FB screens. Did we ever try that? Or try to run right or left?
