I don't like Zeke but I'm not going to accuse him of abusing women when there is zero evidence proving he has. He got suspended by a soy boy, virtue signaling Commissioner (I mean, look what he's done to the draft) based entirely on the word of the victim. The same victim the police discredited as a liar. That is a fact, jack. That's why he was never charged.

I'll stick with my own reasons not to like the guy. Legitimate ones. Like being a diva, fat and content, no showing training camp with no warning to get a new contract with two years left, being friends with Prescott, his dog sitting skills, etc.
If you remember, Roger’s lead investigator told him that there was no evidence against Zeke other than conflicting stories from witnesses with no credibility. Roger suspended Zeke anyway. I don’t have problems with the off-field drama , because it has not really been anything other than immaturity. I do have problems with Zeke’s on-field performance since he signed his contract. At this point all he does is run straight forward at a slow speed until he can find a defender to run into.

I believe he not only went ahead with suspending him, but he also fired her (the lead investigator) upon her objections.
Like pretty much on the spot.

The OL was not the problem last year. Knight and Steele were more than adequate. I expect them to get better. Not worried at all if Tyron or Collins gets hurt. Center could be the Achilles' Heel when it comes to injury, though.
Knight and Steele will be lucky to make the roster this year if everybody is healthy. They did improve with more playing time, but they so bad to start with that they could only get better. They will be lucky to still be in the league in a couple of years.

Yes, I was not a Goodell fan , but I didn’t hate him until he took out his personal grudge with Jerry out on Zeke. I can’t stand the guy now. He is the overpaid, gutless ,arrogant piece of crap in all of sports.

Yeah and the lead investigator, a woman, said she found the accuser to be not truthful.

And he still got suspended!

Agree with everything, but gutless.
He's as brave as brave gets (or as heartless as heartless gets) because he's the firewall between the owners' wishes and the fans that fuel the machine no matter how they feel about him.

I agree but the turd did handle a women. Gooddell is a bottom feeding scum sucker and Zeke is a fat lard. I can agree with that.

“Dominating” in an environment where nobody is even wearing pads, much less tackling?

Yay.

Super Bowl bound!

Let me see him actually evade or outrun a few guys IN GAME and then I’ll be more excited.

It’s June. These media members who write stories like this need to calm down.
Maybe the fans that criticize everything should calm down.

I like to just take little mental notes.

I have Zeke, Dak, Smith, and Martin on either my "looks amazing in camp" or "best shape of my life" lists. It's a nice little thing to have incase excuses get made.

Am I missing anybody?
Figures! Hope you're man enough to pull those notes out and praise them if they have good seasons and not just to rag on your, so called team. Makes me sick to keep reading crap like this from so many "fans"

My opinions are never set it stone. If you prove me wrong then you prove me wrong.

However, I do not let that star on the helmet blind me either.

And you'll cheer him on as soon as he scores a TD.

As I posted in a thread last month, I figured Zeke would be motivated by not only his subpar 2020, but seeing his backfield teammate rehab from that gruesome injury to now appear to show no after effects and looks to be in great shape.

Better than "looks slow in OTA's"

Yeah if the headline had been "Zeke looks terrible in OTAs" people would be falling all over themselves to declare this to be proof that he "got the big contract and quit on the team" or some such. It's amazing how positive news must be met with skepticism but negative news gets lapped up like gramma's biscuits and gravy.

You mean as opposed to hanging out in Cabo? Why would us haters not like Zeke working out? If he can earn his money, that is all us haters want. Unfortunately he hasn't.
actually he was in cabo at some point this year as well, so cabo had nothing to do with anything.

I still have faith that Zekes best season is ahead of him.

If he's properly motivated and the OL is healthy, there's no reason why we can't see a season similar or better than his rookie year.
