Another great one by Zeke

I’m going to keep doing this until you all start putting respect to his name!

Enjoy his last season in Dallas.

We understand it at least in my mind I don’t care it’s not my money besides Jerry and Steven ain’t going to use available resources the right way

Paying Elliott is an example of not using available resources the right way.

Dallas could have played Bo Scarborough in Zeke's role today for 100 k per game. And got the same results.

Only in Cowboy land is 3.8ypc good against an atrocious defense. He's not even a top 20 back anymore.

Perspective is important. He had three goal-line carries and two of them went for TDs (and the other for a first down). That affects YPC, but I'd much rather have two TDs than 4-plus YPC with no TDs.

I so want to find the guy that said Zeke can't hurdle.

To be honest I didn't know if he had it in him anymore either!

Whatever happened to the number one Zeke hater Aria?

Weight lifting accident.... Maybe.

Agree. A warrior to his credit. Very durable. Takes the hits yet keeps coming back for more.

3.8 YPC
Zeke was fine, Pollard was better.

Zeke was at 5.2 until the short TD runs and short yardage plays.

I think zeke can be a great complimentary guy going forward. Exactly how he's been used now. His Vision will keep him in the NFL. Its still elite.

Its a one two punch that Im happy to have working for once.

below 4 YPC is now what we celebrate around here while said RB is paid like an elite back.

I swear, there are a few posters on this board that have to be Zeke's cousins and uncles. There's no freakin' way anyone watches him and the first thing they do is rush to the board and celebrate his average to slightly above average days. He's done as a featured back in this league. The worst part is with some of you, how is it surprising? He's a RB. He had a ton of carries from the moment he started in college until the moment Garret was fired, that's a ton of wear and tear on his body. It's over.

I wouldn’t call it a great game. It was a good game.


That’s the rub though. You can’t pay a RB 15 mil to be good. He has to be great.

This!

Top running backs (Henry, Cook ) are getting 12.5m per season and he's a rung down from that. For how he's performing his base salary needs to be about 8m IMO.

Only 3 RBs ever in Cowboys storied franchise history have 20 or more multiple TD games.

You guys need to be better fans.

Zeke is closest thing on team to a guarantee in the redzone and short yardage.

TP is a home run or a foul tip threat every time he gets the ball, and that's not reliable or winning football on 3rd and short or on goal line.

The OL love run blocking but they all trust and love Zeke.

He's not being paid as a short yardage back. That's the problem and that's why Zeke will be asked to take a pay cut after this season or he'll be set off to FA.

Stop acting like you know anything.
