Agree 1000%.........for the life of me, I can't understand why we haven't seen more of him and Zeke in various packages on the field together. That's on MM and KM......

that's on the OC and Owner who insists his highest paid RB get touches to justify his contract.

I wonder what tape Jerry watches. Different kind of pile I'm sure.

So has it hit anyone that maybe Pollard is as good as he is because of the limited touches he gets?

I think there is some truth to that, but that isn't the whole explanation. Not every RB tat gets a similar amount of touches performs as well as Pollard. To me Pollard has earned at least something close to an even split with Zeke.

Yeah we can't figure it out either.

Pollard is underused and misused. Don't care if you view Pollard as a cop RB he should've played more due to Zeke being injured.

I think Pollard’s foot injury kept him from getting more touches even with Zeke’s injury. I think he had the same injury that Amari has had?

agree.. but Pollard was injured too. I wish we would of drafted a RB this year…

Less injured haha. It was a good time to draft a RB.

we are currently doing it lol

Yeah, not really. I do think it was insane to not rest Elliott a game or two, but talent-wise Pollard isn't an every down back. I know that translates to hating, but whatever.
Personally, I would have entertained a different backfield altogether.

no he isnt an every down back but hes a better 1st and 2nd down back at this point and for the last few years. I dont want him to be the every down back just get more carries,. RB's are a dime a dozen and we could replace both of them in draft IMO.

Its the line that is the most important element

What, you think having fresh legs helps somehow?

Only Zeke doesnt punish the defense. Pollard is the one punishing defenses. Being easy to tackle isnt punishing anyone.

That’s a joke. You can question his speed but his physicality and toughness can’t be. Sorry.

I wonder how many teams feature their 2nd best RB.

We did it all last year.

It ended with Anemic Zeke’s pathetic 12-31 line in the playoffs.

He's definitely earned more touches. At the very least, he's earned the opportunity to prove he can handle more. That said, I agree that his performance benefits from not being a workhorse.

Pollard and zeke should be used like Kamara and Ingram but we have Moore abd they had Payton

If you think that’s the reason, you haven’t paid attention to the Cowboys in 30 years.

Zeke is the star with the big contract. There is a 99.5% chance the directive to keep him the #1 back is coming from ownership.

Thisvis a microcosm of why no one thinks a family business can compete with real NFL teams. Honestly how competitive the Cowboys are is impressive concerning the restraints they have to work with.

Maybe the 2nd healthiest.

Jerry is dictating along with booger, who gets to start at rb. Listening to Mike Fisher leaves little doubt on this fact.

RonWashington · May 26, 2022

Coming out of Memphis I thought Dallas would put him in the passing game more often .

He watches while wearing beer goggles

To me he can be used like how the Rams used Faulk in the passing game. Why we don't is puzzling. He has escapability in space. Zeke just can't.

Mike Fisher said Pollard isn't the answer and Zeke will be in the same role. Dude just repeats everything Jerry and Stephen say about him. Again, it comes back to culture in the media in Dallas. They never do actual journalism and speak truth. I wonder if Fish actually believes his own Bs

Yet some CZers never fail to post whatever he puts out.

I know. As if it's the gospel truth..the junk Mike puts out.
