You and I both Eric. I really wanted Henry to be a Cowboy if we didn't get Zeke. I just can't be mad at hindsight because Derrick admits he struggled to admit his first two seasons in 16 and 17.

i just knew after that season Henry was the pick.
i will never forget the first kiper/mcshay board...and no Henry in rd1.
i thought maybe i was dumb for thinking it.
did he have THAT bad of a combine?
how was he NOT a 1st round pick.

Difference is conditioning. Henry is in peak physical shape and challenges his body through vigorous work all off-season.

Zeke is "faded" on Call of Duty twitch streams and likely stuffing his face with pizza rolls and potato chips. Proof is in the pudding.

i just wish he'd run flat-footed.

Zeke had two 100-yd games this season.

Henry had three 200-yd games this season.

That’s truly staggering.

From what I remember he had a really good combine that confirmed his strengths as an athlete. I feel bro.

Zeke has actually tried pretty hard this year. So, nice effort.

Sad to say I think he's lost 'it' though. A good, tough runner and receiver and poss protector, but not even close to the threat he used to be.

The thought of him busting a 30 yd run is laughable.

The biggest drop off you see in Zeke is the athleticism, it is a joke how much it has simply disappeared from his game.

Zeke is average now. Don't know why that would make people mad, but it's true. He was great a few years ago but not anymore.

I think it makes people mad because he sat out with two years left on his contract until he was paid as fhe highest RB in the league.

Was that his fault? Not really, it was more Jerry’s but I think most of us expected him to do more. As far as I know there wasn’t anything in his contract about needing a top 5-10 O line to produce. I’m not so sure I would say he sucks, but he’s damn close to it and I don’t want to hear any excuses.

I watched Zeke in 17' destroy SF, it was artwork.
His speed was like Kamara but got the smash mouth yards and broke tackles like MB3.
W T F happened he use to beautiful man?

Congrats to Henry for his hard work & training.

i will never understand why he wasn't considered a 1st Rd pick.
i thought after that heisman season he would've been.
he wasn't.
and he shoulda been.
weird.

He didn’t have the abs.

Zeke:

244 att, 979 yds, 6 tds

Henry:

378 att, 2,027 yds, 17 tds

I think there is a poster that still believes Zeke is a more complete then Henry.

Look at the bright side, at least no playoffs means Zeke can get started on his offseason workout regimen. We all know the guy has a reputation for his dedicated work ethic and ability to zone in during the offseason on improving his craft.

Zeke's fade reminds me of Roy Williams' fade. The first few years Roy Williams was unstoppable. A hitting machine extra-ordinaire. But he went south quickly. Same with Zeke. Thought he was going to set the league on fire. Now he just sets/sits down after every other six-yard run.

This team needs serious help. SMH.

And?

Without Zeke, Dalton would not have made it through the season.

ESisback · Jan 3, 2021

You guys see the picture of Zeke they put up after he scored? His hair looked like Will Ferrell’s character in Zoolander, and he was screaming! Made me laugh AND dislike him at the same time! Was that by design? The networks and pundits KNOW that people despise Dallas, and Elliott gives them another reason, coming off as arrogant, dumb, and overrated. Feeding hate garners rating$ nowdays, doesn’t it?

I personally wanted Derrick Henry. Heisman trophy winner for the same reason he is today the NFL's best RB and leading rusher. Big, strong, fast, etc.

Looking forward to RonnieT’s blathering manifesto on why Zeke’s 900 yards = 2,000 yards.

Hey if you gave Zeke those carries he would of been close.

Well maybe not that close. But closer or something. Or within a thousand yards

We could have if he could outrun me.

But he can't.
