Are We Going To Keep Pretending That Tony Pollard Shouldn't Be The Main RB?

Zeke is a better blocker than Pollard. Unless we sign another RB that can also block like Zeke.

I don't care at all about the wear and tear on Zeke.

That's even more reason to make Pollard the main back as far as I'm concerned. He's the fresher guy without all the wear and tear from years past.

I'm not saying Pollard will have a better career than Zeke. I'm saying Pollard, right now, is easily the better player.

I'm in the camp of playing the best players. I'm not in the camp of playing the higher paid guys that used to be better.

....then you should send a letter to the OC......right? And I'll send one to the LB coach.

I knew salary would come into play. That might be why LVE gets immunity in comparison to Jaylon Smith's days. I wonder why TPollard has to be praised at the expense of putting Zeke down. And as you say.....they are playing on the same team at the same time......thus teammates. But in the end.....when Zeke is out next year (and we know that will happen)......watch our OC "ruin" (lack of runs, baffling play calls, taken out at the wrong time) TPollard fast. Mark it down.

Salary always comes into play as with more money comes higher expectations.....and right now Pollard is outperforming Zeke as a starter therefore he should be given the opportunity to start over Zeke.

....again, you should be pounding the door of the OC. And I will pound the door of the LB coach......since salary is a factor, I'm less than LVE's salary.

Malik Davis had the longest run and the better ypc average.. Why aren't we discussing why he isn't the starter? I mean that's how this works isn't it?

Maybe a larger sample size and a little history to judge from are factors?

Does it really matter if the OC is allergic to running the ball?

Is he now? And you have that on good authority somehow?
