Anyone know why we ran Zeke so little?

Zero reason for him to have that few carries

Actually...when you only have the ball for 26 minutes.....and you are behind for 18 of them....the running game tends to get thrown out the window when trying to play catch up...and your running out of time.

Blame the defense for not being able to get off...once again.

The jerk pulled himself out of the game immediately after his long run. He goes straight from the feed me BS to motioning for a relief.

Because they’re stupid. They are....one of those 4 guys can’t figure out how to put in the light bulb deals.

Cause Daks agent is at the organization twice a week which upsets Garrett and his philosophy so it translates to going pass majority of the time.

Because the Bills shut him down on most plays, he got winded, if we continued to run him a) he wouldn’t be able to handle the load b) defense would home in on him even more and then people would complain that we didn’t pass the ball enough and ask why we gave up a first round pick for a receiver we never use and because people would complain we are too predictable.

Any other questions?
Wrong

with garrett it gets weird real quick.
You got that right. His obscurities and bizarre game situations know no bounds. A 2017 3 game stink fest,followed up by another a couple weeks later? That’s ....I don’t know,wow...all of em each their own ding dong moment too.

Your insight is invaluable, thanks for your contribution. So what do you think about the astral plane and how it’s relative to our mortal psyche? I need more deep thinkers liker yourself who can enlighten me.

Just one favor to ask, please don’t be as wordy or thoughtful and your last response as brilliant as it was.

3 reasons,
1 JG was criticized for running elliot at end of Minn game and elliot has not done well in recent games.
2.Kellen is a former passing qb, and he likes to pass way more than run the ball.
3. Jones boys might have said they wanted to see more passing and less running.

This is something you can game plan, but by end of 1st qtr they should re evaluate and for this game they should have switched to a real heavy run game.
use pollard and elliot and just run run run, then run some more and wear the bills down. that was their weakness, run defense, but dallas did what they wanted
which was go heavy pass.

Moore is a rookie OC.

Tad pass happy to boot too.

This is what a lot wanted. Less slow drives, more explosive plays in the passing game

If we fall behind at all then we abandon it. We had the run established and could play action off of that but early in the 3rd quarter they quit. And I mean the team as a whole just quit.

Cause its Dak's team now and Superbowl here we come!

P.S. Once we've beaten a team with a winning record that is.......

Has to be true

Their Qb only had 2 less rushes that Zeke did. They clearly believe that riding Dakota is the way to go.

how’s that working out for the team?
