You are a quick date, Pollard has what 10 carries in preseason and wasn't the first option on his college team and you are ready to anoint him? Where is your head? Id rather hitch my wagon to a proven runner than a rook that can easily fade back to the bench. But you are correct, I am a huge Zeke fan.
What does being his College's first option have to do with anything? That's an extremely weak argument for what he is today. How many NFL players in the hall of fame weren't their college's first option? A great many of them were late bloomers and had much better professional careers than collegiate careers.

If you think I'm ready to "anoint" Pollard then you haven't been paying enough attention to what I've said about him. I've conceded he's not a 30 carry per game RB like Zeke has proven to be. He'll never fill the shoes of Zeke but he can run the ball well enough to keep the chains moving.

If you are hitching your wagon to Zeke right now then you are going nowhere on a football field.

That's original formula. Everyone know you need Pam Olive Oil Cooking Spray to annoint it right.

I can see it now...

“Dak sucks!!! His success still doesn’t count!!! He’s just lucky T-Poll (or whatever stupid nickname is settled on) is carrying him!!!”

The great thing about Pollard is he can make the most out of a limited number of carries. Zeke needs several carried to get warmed up and then watch out. But Pollard is hot from the get-go. This is perfect for when Zeke gets back because a limited number of carries is all Pollard will get a chance to work with.

What do you base this on? He's hot from the get-go? And Zeke being cold?

The kid has how many carries now? As it stands Pollard is about 4048 yards behind Zeke.

It's an observation. I never said Zeke is cold, by the way. I just said he's not at his best until he has warmed up with a few carries. Are you suggesting the Cowboys can't win with Pollard until he has rushed as many yards as Zeke has? :facepalm:

Did I say that?

My thoughts are these. Run a two back offense. What do they call that, a 22. Use both Zeke and Pollard. The idea of play action with one back leaking out in the flat sdhould cause disruption. Then the lead draw from the same formation will be effective.

This is where Moore has options and can show he is the genius they claim.

By mentioning how many yards Pollard is behind Zeke, you very much implied the Cowboys can't win without Zeke.

I don't care about your thoughts on the offense's gameplan. Not complying with your thoughts doesn't have anything to do with whether Moore is a genius.

By saying Zeke needs a few carries to get going you implied he was cold.

How long do you want to play this game, because you are now putting my feet to sleep.

Needing to warm up to optimal temperature, does not imply the starting temp is "cold", it's just not optimal. I can play this game as long as it need be played, I'm retired and getting impatient for regular season football. :p

And the legend of Pollard grows larger. Dude has has what 10 preseason carries??

LOL.....he's a GOD a HB made in heaven!
Another Rico story and if he's forced to carry the load(Zeke still out) the Pollard myth will come crashing down like the Hindenburg.......with Dak and the offense being on-board as passengers.

P.S. Field Goal anyone?????
