[darthseinfeld]

Mods, can we change the name of this thread to Ezekiel Elliott/Derrick Henry Rueage thread please

No it's your heart.

No it was my legs I was a sprinter in high school distance is not my thing I did great for the first 30 seconds I just couldn't get my legs to keep going

But the #4 pick shouldn't every be used on a RB.

I don't disagree. I wouldn't pick any RB at #4, Zeke, Henry, or anyone else.

 

[atlantacowboy]

I agree with you, but at the same time. It is nice saying Zeke, Cowboys player and 2 times rushing champion. ALTHOUGH, 2 time SB champion sounds better.

Well, thats the point. And there's a cap issue as well. There is absolutely no good reason to pay a rb what he paid Zeke. Plus, we didn't even take advantage of the rookie contract which is the most valuable commodity in the NFL.

 

[Tenkamenin]

Running quarterbacks (as opposed to quarterbacks who run) are often exposed in the playoffs.

Nonsense, Brady is a traditional drop back QB and he got whooped by Tennessee. The Titans have a great defense, and whether you’re a slow as molasses QB or mobile they will make it difficult for you.

No it's your heart.

Ultrasound showed nothing EKG showed nothing

 

[PhillyCowboysFan]

Thats Dak's fault. He's been offered top 5 QB money. SA says his agent wasn't negotiating. Meanwhile, Zeke and Jaylon both got deals a year early. ....2 years in Zekes case.

DeMarcus Lawrence? Anyway my point was is Henry is cheaper now but not after his next contract. Not sure why you brought Jerry up in that comment but anyway.

 

[cowboyblue22]

I think dak will be signed long term really soon I think he will be the cowboys qb for the future I don't dak is the major problem with the cowboys its a lot of the rest that way infighting among the coaches no leadership from the coaches and a defense that had no leadership

 

[TheHerd]

Zeke used to be better but that Zeke has left the building.. The explosive plays have gone bye bye and now we are paying him for what he used to do and not what he can do.

Hopefully next year he comes to camp lighter and in shape and we see 2016 Zeke and not the guy who rushes for the most yards because he got the most attempts.

Zeke just seems like a front running diva. He doesn't have heart.

 

[CB61]

Thanks for that delightful description.

I thought you'd enjoy that LOL

 

[Amarillofan82]

Its not a Zeke thing. Its a positional scarcity thing. Its simply harder to find a Jalen Ramsey in rounds 2-4. RBs are just easier to find. Henry was a second rounder......Aaron Jones.......Alvin Kamara........Delvin Cook........ you don't spend the #4 pick in the draft on a rb. Its not smart.

Also, agree... however we know the Cowboys history with 2nd round picks. We would have got Jalen first round, then some no name DT in the second who would currently be playing for the Browns and showing how crappy Marinelli coaches up players.

 

[CB61]

Awful quiet in that Stadium

 

[Rockport]

Ultrasound showed nothing EKG showed nothing

I'm not Dr. but I don't think ultrasound or an EKG can tell if you're out of shape.

 

[cowboyblue22]

wow that ravens team really sucks pretty bad I think they read to many of the press clippings

 

[CB61]

And imagine that the Titans have a coach that are actually yelling and getting emotional during the games?

 

[jazzcat22]

I'm not ready to go that far, as well as the Titans have looked. Let's see how the Chiefs do tomorrow.

Yeah was just thinking that, see how they look tomorrow, then will re-evaluate.

Can't possibly agree more. No way do you EVER spend a #4 on a RB. Or pay one 15M year.

No but they can tell if your heart's okay it was definitely cuz I was out of shape it's been checked a few times since then

That's usually the case. Many get the sniffles from allergies or just a cold and say it's the flu. I guess to get sympathy.

I’ve been dealing with allergies at work ever since they turned the heater on. Everybody around me swears I either have bronchitis or the flu. I got tired of telling them it’s just allergies. I don’t have a fever and my phlegm is clear, it’s an allergic reaction to the dusty heater.. People are dumb...

Wait are you saying an upper respiratory infection is the sniffles or allergies? Because it’s not.
