Let’s talk about Zeke

[Cmac]

I'd prefer discussing Jason Witten.

Zeke is not at the top of the list in problems with this organization and team.

Have to agree. ….Can we just give Zeke the 2019 Fall Guy Award now?....this thread reminds me of Iverson's Speech about Practice. Witt 2 for 14....running in mud all year (chasing Dez TD record), Dak (inconsistent/inaccurate in big games), Kellen Moore getting OJT and failing, Jarwin in a Witness Protection program, Team Motivation/fight missing frequently, Coop road performances, etc......and we discussing Zeke. Wow!!

The whole forum was crying for more Pollard, well you got pollard & he costed us points

He's soft.

Wears crop tops, stupid nose ring, and if you saw the cowboys all or nothing he’s very weird socially so I don’t think football is this dudes priority.

IMHO, the season went to Hell when the Jones caved to Zeke. When he held out, the Jones should have held the line then traded him.

Had that great catch last week but he’s washed up

Been running like his shoes were two sizes smaller, all year.....and Jarwin can't get any love. Witt is record chasing.

I agree I was unsure while it was happening but my gut feeling was don’t cave in to him. And beyond just screwing this team he set the precedent. Others will try it now but luckily for them most gm’s aren’t 80 year old demented alcoholics.

 

[robertfchew]

He is sucking wind bc his lifestyle I have firsthand knowledge of it

Same I don’t do drugs which is what I think caused his holdout but I do like drinking and during your 20’s there is a steep decline in what you can after partying

Right? The shifting of the goalposts is comical.

Troy pointed out Zeke hit his head it’s not like he took himself out because he was tired.

Philly came into the game with the 3rd best rushing defense in the NFL, its also comical that fans are blaming Zeke because he didn't put 150 yards on a team that has averaged giving up 90 for the entire season.

Eagles stacked the box and dared the QB with the bum shoulder to beat them.

Amazing thing is that it took six drops to keep that from actually happening.

He threw 5 accurate passes the entire game.

This season, just like the past 23, was over before it started.

Does anyone honestly think Zeke will win another rushing title? Dude looks slow out there.

I agree. I think he put on weight and it's slowed him down. Don't know if he just got lazy and gained weight, or if the Cowboys wanted him to gain weight, but I don't believe he's as fast as he was in his 1st year.

It seems like every other week the other team's RB out shines him easily. Making our guys miss and breaking tackles.

 

[Wood]

He is developing a dubious record in big games. Maybe that moron can come into next season in shape. Would be nice.

This makes me nervous to say because I also have concerns about whats going on inside Zeke head. But I do think the Cowboys need to reset and make Zeke & that OL the focal point again. They are over-paid and likely un-tradeable but when OL & Zeke show up they are as good as anyone else in NFL. There needs to be accountability and hopefully next HC brings that. As tempting as Cooper & Dak are I would pass on both. Cooper is an absolutely overpay at $20 million year and I have major concerns Dak isn't accurate enough to win big games in playoffs against very good teams. Cowboys have good draft slot this year and ton of compensatory picks in 2021 (projected) so they can get this back online quickly.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

Zeke’s holdout trashed his season. Better production early in the season would have helped this team.

Recently he’s been in form but the line has been inconsistent and these coaches abandon the run far too early, far too often.

This is BS. Zeke regularly takes himself out when we need him the most. This is by far the first time hes done it. Did he bump his head all those times too?

Vintage Dragnet.....Just the Facts Ma'am/Sir.....shouldn't we save this for the likes of RGregory?

 

[Sarge]

He’s not at the top of the list in problems for this team, but he’s the highest paid RB in the league and not playing like it. Anyone see a healthy Barkley play yesterday?

 

[Starforever]

Zeke, would not pull himself out of the game, if the coaching staff was more than a fake front, for the GM/Owner's ego. The whole organization stinks, and has been stinking up the NFC, for over 20+ years.
