why does he need that? Maybe ALL Purpose YES thats what this team needs..most backs who have career years in rushing like Chris2k etc and Murray and im betting henry will feel the effects end up shortening their careers..

he had a good year this years regardless of what the troll's try to pass off, id like to see more receptions in his future and Pollard taking carries away and have zeke fresh in the 4th Qtrs and late in the seasons..

getting near 1400 yards and 12tds plus finish 30yards from 3rd in the league, hows is that bad? hes been the most productive and consistent back in the league since 2016..His toughness, durability and consistency is what ES did to have a longer career..

we dont need to run his legs off , we need to have him longer and aside from getting more receptions and a threat in the passing game hes fine in the run game.. if this year was an off year I can live with that even thought thats ridiculous to even say..

its terrible narrative from those that dont think he should have got paid and now have him under a ridiculous magnified expectations..

ill take this same year again the next 3 years and simply have the coaching staff utilize his talent in the pass game..
Didn’t say he needed it, but would be a nice thing for a player’s career..especially a player that I think is the foundation of the offense and team. And the hands down MVP of the cowboys.

nah I say it would shorten his career and as fan I want to see him be relative another 3ears given his new deal..pollard and utilizing him in the pas game and he gets over 2k in all purpose yards is better for the team and Zeke. the 2k thing has hardly been done and when it has , those players disappeared as quickly as they came up..

Zekes durability and consistency is his upside to a longer career..

I wouldn't let him come off the field. He wants to be fed than he better look at his paycheck and realize that the Boys paid him to be an every down back. Put him at fullback or split him out wide when Pollard comes in, but make him stay on the field. Every. Dang. Offensive. Play.

Could Elliott surpass the 2,000 yrd mark next season? I think big things are coming for #21. We just need things to come together for this kid, when they do. He’s gonna be a champion and he’s bringing the Cowboys with him.
Big things won’t come to him. He needs to go get them.

Including his trips to the sidelines after he begs out? Maybe.

I hope McCarthy will fix our screen plays. They were not productive this past season. I think Zeke & Pollard both would increase their ypg drastically with better blocking/disguising our screen plays.

Nope, won't get the carries or the catches to make that total yards from scrimmage. Elliott is a power back, he's not a juker. Big Mike would prefer for Pollard to be the pass receiving back because he has moves like ole CC in the nursing home on a Saturday night.

The question is how many carries/touches must a 15M RB get to justify that salary and I do wonder if Big Mike had been here last year if they would have pulled the trigger on that deal? But then, how many passes does a QB need to throw to justify 35M? And how many catches for an 18M WR? Are there enough balls to go around for the money?

He would need about 500 carries to do that. 4 yards and a cloud of dust Elliott. Maybe if they vote to extend the regular season to 20 games. Think about it. Zeke Idiot would have to average 100 yards per game for 20 games.

How many games did he get shut down last year? He has clearly lost a step and is getting fatter and more dumb every year. He got his big payday. Probably getting drunk and abusing women every week. Only a matter of time before he gets suspended again.

Hard to hit that mark when you constantly take yourself off the field. Captain Cabo needs to try and shed some weight and grow up a bit.

He got paid because he is respected and a natural on the field, what are you talking about?
