Exactly KJJ. A VERY "big concern". We were so busy chasing Arizona's QB, they had a heyday with the run! If we make that mistake again, we're gonna be 2-2 by Sunday night.
STOP the run!
Just imagine all the doom and gloom on the board if the Cowboys fall to 2-2, especially with San Francisco coming up next week on the road.

In the past couple years, in the 1st half of the season, Zeke ran like a bulldog after a bone. His problem was he ran out of steam in the 2nd half of the season. Our run defense has been atrocious, so I suspect Zeke will have a good day Sunday. The Boyz better put the brakes on him early and shut him down.
:hammer: Exactly. If we don't shut down the run, we'll be 2-2 instead of 3-1, and Zeke's fan club will be celebrating.

Bilicheck is probably counting on it. As you watch the play action pass, go down the field.

I wish DeMarvion Overshown was still healthy. I was looking forward to seeing Overshown zero in on Zeke and lay a couple of haymakers on him.

he has had 28 rushes for 122 yards. about a 4 yard average. he doesn't quite have the speed to the outside any longer, so if we contain the middle, they may struggle with Zeke at RB. Zeke is master of sliddering through tiny cracks, but doesn't quite have the speed any longer. he may get a 10 yard run or a 7,8 yard run then have several 2,3 yard runs. his best game came against the Jets. their work hourse is stevenson.

Imagine heeehawing about Zeke averaging 5 yards on 16 carries in one game.

Meanwhile, Pollard has averaged 5.0 YPC on 572 carries for his career.

It's clear who can't handle the truth.
What I said is not a lie.

So you wanna play that game?

What player is a 2 time rushing champion with 4.4 ypc on 1909 carries. There's some truth for you.


Having said that...GO TONY! I like both....as Cowboys of course.

I know...that's a little hard for some to understand.

You mean I used a larger data set than the 16 carries you did?

Seriously, this is not even a football debate now. It’s a matter of base level intelligence and you’re failing with flying colors fanboi.
Yes...you used a lower data set for Tony than you did for zeke.

And I wasn;t even comparing anything to Tony. It was about this stupid lie "3 ypc". That's it.

You are the one that brought up something I never said. Argued it...and claimed yourself the winner.

What lower data set did I present in comparison to Zeke?

Speak bozo. Here's your chance.

You put horrific in quotes. So somebody actually said that and you are quoting them?

Or are you making up a lie to suit your agenda?

I will let you decide, Risen.

An injury so "horrific" that it made him a bum the rest of the season.

Except for the week after the injury. Sometimes it takes time to realize how injured you are.

It's great to see Zeke hug his former teammates after a Cowboys blowout, and Zeke really didn't do much.
