Where were you in game 1?

Barkley 11 carries for 120 yards

Zeke 13 carries for 53 yards

I swear, so many people constantly try to justify paying Ewok such a ridiculous contract that they bring up his stats by starting threads only when convenient.
So what about Zeke hitting 139 tonight? For the season series, head to head, Zeke had more yards; with the fact that Zeke coming from Cabo took a bunch of series off to start the season

Finally you agree! Let’s see, the only team with a winning record that he did good against was the Eagles and if you saw the room he had to run I’m quite sure Pollard would have had similar stats.

The only other to teams we’ve played with a winning record, we lost to, and he had total yards of 62 and 35.

Every other team he’s done well against are some of the worst in the league, literally. Whew! His contract sure his paying off! I don’t know how we would have beat some of the worst defenses in the league or the likes of the Washington, Miami, or NYG without him!

Here’s a little news flash, expect him to have a big game against Detroit and then tell us how great he is, they’re defense is second worst in the league but I’m sure that will be conveniently over looked to prop up the Ewok even more.

Sarcasm jeez man....:omg:

Pretty sure no RB would have done much better behind that O line and it’s pretty clear he hasn’t been the same since returning from his injury.

Again, love how when Zeke has a bad game it’s the coaching, it’s the O lines fault...it’s anyones but his. Yet Barkley has a bad game and none of that matters.

A bottom 5-10 offensive line in the league vs a top 5. A decent defense vs one of the worst defenses in the league and you act like Ewok and Barkley were facing off against each other under equal circumstances?
I love how this place works.
Zeke plays well and its because of his offensive line.
Zeke plays poorly and its because of him.
Barkley plays well and its all because of him.
Barkley plays poorly and its all because of his Line.

Neither extreme is accurate. Both are great backs.

The Dallas defense did a great job containing Barkley. He is the type of RB that will eventually break a play and he got his big run like he usually does but overall he was contained. Zeke had a pretty good game, he was consistent getting 5 yds a carry keeping things comfortable for Dak but he is supposed to do that. The real test will be the Vikings. Running is gonna be tough for him and its really gonna fall on Daks shoulders.

14 for 28 is absolutely shutting someone down. 1 screen pass catch and run does not negate the fact that he averaged 2 ypc for the whole game.

Bias distorts vision for many, when it comes down to Zeke. If Zeke had those same stats, he would be eviscerated by his haters. Barkley, and others are excused for bad, or average performances.

Barkley has been referred to the modern day Barry Sanders. They are right. They both are flashy and they don’t win a lot of games. Give me Zeke.

Zeke keeps the chains moving. Hes not as flashy as Saquon, but the dirty yards are more important. Saquon will bust one almost every game and thats a bid deal, however Zeke consistently falling forward is a much bigger deal.

I was here, complaining about Zeke, and engaging in discussion about him vs Barkley.

this is also a thread about the job that the D did. I was impressed and I posted.
