Zekes rookie year will remain his pinnacle of success , his ceiling ...

Gone is the zip ... gone are his catch & run swing pass greatness ...

Gone is the burst - the burst that wow’s you ...

Is he washed up ? No ! Is he ineffective?no!

He’s a rumbler now ... 3,4,2,3,9....

He’s no longer top 5

Bell
Gurley
Fournette
Barkley
Johnson

He’s more Derrick Henry like these days ...

Why ? He’s never been the sane since the 6 game suspension.

Our OL has never been the same since the loss of Ron Leary .
Simply ridiculous. A complete overreaction.

This post is a total joke. Zeke is very limited running now because defenses stacks the line and keys in in Zeke every play. Since the passing offense is so bad, it causes Zeke to look much worse than he he actually is.

At 23, Zeke is not in decline, and has added being a receiving threat to his abilities, while he has proven he can be the league leading rusher with sub-par QB play, missing an all-pro center, and no established WRs or TEs.....

At 23, Zeke has improved big time.

Every time I see runs by Derrick Henry he just looks so unnatural out there. Can't believe someone thinks Zeke, who's growing, is already declining after 1 season.

Zeke is definitely good to go, but he has a habit of "playing himself into shape", both physically and mentally, that we've seen for 3 years in a row now. To be honest, it really makes me question his work ethic.

Leonard Fournette and David Johnson were originally listed in the original post as being better than Elliott, but have combined for fewer yards from scrimmage than Elliott. Those 2 have 381 yards while Elliott has 551 yards. Throw in Derreck Henry and his 175 yards from scrimmage and then there are 3 guys discussed who have combined for 556 yards to Elliotts 551 yards.

Everything I saw from Elliott yesterday, I have seen all season. It was just a matter of time before he hit a big play or two within a game. The big plays for any running back come in time.

It appears that the OP's pile has been driven a little too hard.
