Uh oh

Looks like a duck...

I think folks understand now why Pollard can't get bulk touches..Zeke is a legit 220lbs and still gets wrecked.

This game is inhumane...by design

The great Zeke has been injured for 6 weeks now and can barely run the ball.

Looks like your hero can no longer shoulder a full load legitimately. The thing he was known for the most is now in the toilet.

I guess my point is. Depending on the pain level. There are times where it hurts, BUT it doesn’t really limit you.

you can still use your foot for whatever you need to.

hopefully pollards is similar in that. It’s going to hurt. But he can still play at a relatively high level and just cope with the pain.

Oh, I know. You are right about that injury. It just seems weird.

Not that it matters but might explain why they had Zeke in at the end of the Saints game..

No I have not. Does that help?

I just bought these massage balls that I can roll my foot on. You can freeze them or heat them

I’m waiting for Amazon to deliver them and I hope they help.

Man I’ll Private message you some YouTube videos. I had plantar fasciitis and it almost instantly went away.

A lot of it has to do with having weak feet. A lot of us wear these big padded shoes and humans weren’t meant to walk on pillows.

Just going outside and walking around barefoot and grabbing the ground with your feet as you walk will strengthen those muscles.

Also, you might want to look into some barefoot shoes or shoes with little padding in them and start out going for a walk.

But for sure just start by spreading your toes out and walking outside barefoot.

Damn and after all of my Zeke bashing

Looks like I need to apologize

Good thing the defense is getting healthy, we will need them more than ever

Have you read the news about Micah?

Very interesting stuff. Please do send the videos. I am looking for anyway I can to help.

I bought these very padded running shoes called Hoka. They are super comfortable and my feet don’t hurt when walking or running in them.

but it hasn’t seemed to do anything to help actually get rid of the problem. Probably because they’re just acting like a bandaid and masking the problem.

Game time decision means he's out. That's Cowboy speak.

ItzKelz · Dec 9, 2021

That boy so fast he done ran himself into an injury.....

Can he tolerate the pain? We will see. Didn't Coop play with this same injury?

Creeper · Dec 9, 2021

Taysom Hill played against the Cowboys with a partial tear of the plantar fascia. I didn't notice it stopping him from running for 100 yards on 11 carries. If Pollard can stand the pain, assuming it is a partial tear, then he can play too.

Sit him.

You want him ready to go come playoff time.

If we make the playoffs.

Jesus wasn't from Sulphur, LA.

Plus I don't believe in any preconceived notion that one man has to shoulder a full load on a team sport :muttley:

Dak Haters are weak sauce

Boyzmamacita · Dec 9, 2021

Nice things. Why can't we have nice things?

So succinct...

BaybeeJay · Dec 9, 2021

No indication the degree of the tear. Seems like its mild if he's a game-time decision.

I completely agree. Needing one RB to shoulder the full load is old school. RB by committee is better on several fronts.

-Health/availability
-salary
-varied skill set

No worries folks, Zeke, the league’s highest paid fullback is about to put the team on his back.

.....but he hurt too, and simply getting continued criticism. How about the OL run blocking for a change?

Ito Smith

Your new workhorse RB

5 ft. 9 in....191 LBS.

The offensive line has to step up.

Can we have a running game with a gimpy Zeke, Clement and Ito Smith? How many times have we seen no name RBs tear us up? Time for the OL and Kellen Moore to earn their pay.

I'm not worried about Elliott. He's had time to rest and he's been practicing so I think he'll be OK. We'll see though. I'm for whoever can play well.

Imagine that: run at super human speed and discover the weak spot in your body.
