No RB will ever get paid again

[DanTanna]

When the OL DOES DO THEIR JOB and Zeke gets to the second level - guess what? He immediately heads towards the closest defender and does a Jason Witten impression! Zeke USED to stiff arm that mofo to the ground and house it. Now? Hahahahahahahaha. And yes DeMarco Murray did the same thing to Philly.

 

[Ranching]

Thanks to Zeke.

And by paid, I mean get a massive 2nd contract after his rookie deal.

He's proven that all that truly matters in an effective running attack is that a top offensive line is needed.

Yawwwwwn......... he'll run for 200 and you'll be kissing his butt.

200 against the Patriots?

Yeah, sure thing

 

[BleedinBlue]

we will not be "market setters"

 

[Runwildboys]

Not to mention the New OC obviously prioritises the passing game over the running game.

If he does, it's because it's working better. How much hate would Moore get if he insisted on running as many times as passing, when the running game is being stifled?

 

[zrinkill]

No.

It is not an overreaction.

Zeke is the highest paid RB in the league.

With the highest paid offensive line in front of him.

A quarterback that has proven he can make plays and throws more than needed.

This is what comes with being paid the highest at the position.

The problem is your acceptance of a top paid player just being good when they are paid like they are the best.

Jeebus ..... Even Michael Jordan did not lead the NBA in scoring every year.

Zeke is still top 5 this year ....... And I happen to think he will bounce back ....... The guy has proven himself and you panicking over half a season is an overreaction.

I agree ...... Just stating a fact

I agree, we need to give him a chance before we crucify him. The O-line has been pretty banged up, and if our resident somewhat homerish in a good way film breakdown expert is correct, the scheme isn't helping them any.

When you say "prioritizes", it sounds like a bias, but I guess you didn't mean it like that.

He is a QB ...... I do think he is biased to passing lol

Good for Zeke. Get paid before you get used up and spit out.

I'm sure he was when he was playing, but he seems like a smart guy. I'm sure he knows rushing is just as important, especially when it's working.

It's like Zeke knows he isn't going to outrun anyone, so he looks for contact to avoid the embarrassment of being run down from behind....or he doesn't want to run all that way. Lol

I don't think teams will pay RBs $14M+ per year going forward. The market price is less for RBs. We shall see pretty soon, though. CMC can claim that he is part WR so that will help his case. Saquon has pretty much fallen off the face of the earth this year.

Interesting to see what the market is for Cook and Kamara.

This offseason, CMC, Cook and Kamara are literally going to say "Imagine your offense without me" and their teams will have to pay or try to win without their best offensive player. I can't imagine any of those franchises choosing that. Those backs might not hit Zeke's number as a % of cap , but they all have a heck of a lot more leverage than Melvin Gordon. Saquon can't do it until after next year, which I initially forgot...but I just think he's hurt. Like Zeke and the Cowboys, the Giants committed to his second contract the moment they drafted him. You simply can't walk away from a top-5 pick who is a great player after his rookie contract ends.

I just think this is a fascinating time for RBs - Gurley, Bell and Zeke all just got paid. In the next 2 offseasons CMC, Kamara, Cook, Saquon and Chubb are all eligible for extensions. If they are following Bell, Gordon and Zeke, all will be willing to hold out.

 

[CATCH17]

Why did the Cowboys have to learn their lesson the hard way?

That's what bothers me.


He's only 24 and while I do acknowledge he doesn't have a lot of space to run in I do think it's obvious that 2016 Zeke is never coming back.

Of course it's an overreaction. He's not talking about how great Zeke is.

Seems as if you are the troll. If you don't cheerlead, smell roses, ride ponies, unicorns, sing and dance under rainbows....you are a troll and a panicking nut job.

I wouldn't blame Barkley if he gave EzE a "blanket party."
