I'm ok with our OL not dominating every game, but can we stop pretending they somehow are the beasts of the NFL.
Minny's OL looked far better. Our OL is not punishing anymore.....but hey....might as well blame Zeke....it's the convenient choice.....and our genius play callers failed to see that tonight and at the most critical time.

Stopped watching the game after that first defensive drive lol. Not interested in re-reruns. But was Zeke really that bad? Or are we overreacting again

Warning! You cannot criticize Zeke in this forum no matter how slow he looks. Stevie Wonder can see Zeke does not have the speed or quickness he has had in the past. He can't get to the holes outside the tackles because he takes too much time getting there. defensive linemen are beating him outside. There were holes but Zeke took too long hitting them.

But they paid him $90 million so now they have to use him.

It was pretty reminscent of the Rams game. Just stuff after stuff after stuff. His longest run was like 6 yards. Tough to determine whether Zeke or the OL was at fault without me paying more attention to the game tape, but there was nothing there all night.

Zeke is garbage

Yep, don’t think he broke 1Tackle all game. I was a fan for trading him to Oakland and drafting Josh Jacobs + others. Saving the Cap and headache.

You don’t pay 90Million for a guy who can only run straight or only get 100+ Yards when he has Excellent blocking.

So the line pass blocked brilliantly and just forgot how to run block? Lol

Whatever makes you feel better. Zeke is a joke at 15 million. You saw a real back play tonight.

I hate that by giving him that contract now they are trapped , they should have Pollard replace him but won't do it.

lol, how'd that work out, Rambo?

It worked out fine. I lived through it. I guess thought I'm a little confused why you decided to get into this discussion. But then I read your screen name and understood perfectly D-B.

Ok ok let's break this down. How many tackles did Zeke break??????? 0. Cook broke at least 5.
Cook was hit in backfield multiple times. Although MN knows how to tackle. Our overrated D does not. (#90 balled out though)

It's a public forum. Why not jump into the discussion? You go ahead and keep telling yourself it worked out fine. lol

Cook wasn’t doing anything running until he started getting blocks. Zeke and Pollard has 0 holes to run through. The only run I saw where there were potential yards left was the one Dak held onto the ball too long before the handoff.

Oline was 100% trash tonight run blocking. Might be the most overrated unit in the league. Can’t open a hole up against a good team. Dak was excellent. They need to pay that man. Zeke looks slow, he needs to get his weight down and get his rookie year speed back
I don't know man, but it seems as if Cook was breaking tackles left and right. I can't think of ANY tackles Elliot broke. Arm tackles brought him down easily.
