Zeke is hungry and wants to eat. Feed Zeke.

MM will get KM on the same page and use the running game better than last year.
But then again we really did not see how KM could truly use Zeke, when the defense sucked and they had to play from behind all the time.

lol. That is how you want football games to start Mr. Elliott.

I wish that particular meeting had included the offensive coordinator and quarterback too.

I’m sure there will be plenty of those types of meetings
We need the run game to be a bit more creative

Good

please Moore please if the run is working dont throw it

Fact alert!

We ran 301 times with Zeke. That's 2 off the league lead.

Add in another 86 from Pollard and the claim that we aren't running is pretty much dead.

@DallasEast didn't say anything to the contrary. He simply alluded to the fact that Zeke may be a little biased.

And to all you dweebs talking trash about him tapping out:
He touched the ball more than anyone in the NFL except for one player.

And that's not counting his great efforts when he's in to block and protect his QB.

This tapping out crap needs to go away.

Quality and timing more important than quantity.

Well I think Garrett was the issue, I can’t believe we didn’t run the ball in key situations instead of trying to throw 40 yards bomb. The offense also lacked plays to attack defense in the middle and seams of the field which would lighten the box for the RBs.

Corso, he demanded to be paid the best so that’s the standard we hold him to and he came up short in more ways than one.

He had the 2nd most carries yet was 4th in total yards and that was running behind the 2nd best run blocking O line in the league. The 3 running backs ahead of him had the 4th, 11th and 17th best run blocking O lines. Fournette played one less game, had 35 less carries, and averaged .2 less ypc behind the 27th “best” run blocking line in the league.

I see guys like McAffrey running all over the field on longer passing routes and never heard of him tapping out. I saw Henry bust off 30+ yard runs and jog back to the huddle like he was taking a stroll through Central Park. People want Zeke to be more involved in the passing game yet he can’t handle running the ball and standing there throwing a block between running plays.

Zeke’s talk and ego is bigger than his noggin which is almost impossible to believe. One of the worst contracts in Cowboys history. I can’t wait for this chump to be off our roster.

Yeah, and the second we get stuffed on one of those plays people scream that the offense is too predictable

If he needs to count to ten I need to count to 100. I bet Zeke couldn’t take a deep breath, hold it, and count past 10 for several reasons. One, he probably can’t count that high, two he would get winded at 5, three he’s a mouth breather and would probably try to breathe through his nose when they told him to take a deep breath.

Yup, 4th and 1 we give it to Zeke, he gets stuffed and people complain how obvious it was and no creativity. 4th and 1, we don’t give it to Zeke and people scream at JG for not giving it to Zeke.

okay.

Perhaps I should have been more long-winded and added the "That’s how we want to start football games" Elliott's quote ended with as what I was referring to and not the expected four-quarter run game per week. :muttley:
