Should we place Zeke on IR?

Just no. He's the best all around RB we have. He covers up a bunch of the O lines mess as well.

I honestly think it would be a smart move as I can see Zeke laboring with that bad knee.

Sitting Zeke would actually change the offense quite a bit. If anything it may give us an advantage over the next few games as I think Pollard would be utilized more like a Kamara if he was the every down back.

No, but with 3 division games and Arizona on tap and with 3 games in 12 days just completed - he should have been inactive last night.


Not only was he active, they were using him AFTER the onside kick that ended the game. It’s hard to believe the coaches could be THAT inept.

If they want keep him active as primarily a blocking RB on passing downs, fine. But continuing to run him when simply can NOT run is asinine. Who is the adult in the coaching room? Clearly it's not Kellen Moore.

And who replaces him? Pollard ain't that guy.

Go sign a fullback if you want blocking.

Pollard is a better runningback than Zeke and it’s not close right now at all.

I keep telling you that this is an explosive play league. Nothing Zeke did last night won us the game. In fact he was just a good way to waste a down is all.

I’m not making excuses for Dak or anything when I say this.


But yes. The offense WASTED downs Over and over again last night. In 3rd and long constantly by throwing a play away running the ball on first down or 2nd and 10.

it was awful

Everyone see’s it now with Pollard besides a few Cowboys fans that have over prioritized blocking and say things like “carrying the load” or whatever.

Just get the ball in Pollards hands more please. He’s the most explosive player on this football team.

Hadn't really thought this far but it makes sense.......sign a free agent or another RB off a PS





Handing the ball the Zeke at this point is a wasted play. Its been like that for 6 weeks. Once again the Cowboys are unprepared. They should have a REAL #3 RB, not some scrub.

No to IR, but he has no business getting the number of touches he has been. We have 10 days of rest now and I expect a Tony Pollard heavy game plan against Washington.

agree no IR but 10/10 split at the very least..zeke is needed for decoy and blocking defense do key him but the last 2 drives game seemingly in hand and not only was zeke in but they throw twice in row instead of running clock and dak throws pick..pollard should have ran 3 straight times and point..this is MOORE issue not zeke or pollard..i mean pollard had 6 carries for 6 yards before that run, he wasn't impressive at al on most of his runs lie zeke on one leg..so this is the OL and Moore..

needs fixing they have 10 days and 5 more games to find the identity we had when we went 6-0.run game sets up the pass, they forgot this defenses are making them one handed and that not going to win in the payoffs.

Elliott is injured and is still a better RB, Pollard is nice in space but inside is not productive.
Signing a FB just to block is idiotic.
