A running game can get you there but it certainly wasn’t coming from zeke at this point in his career.

Running back? After that last playoff snap I though Zeke was now a center??? Have he switched back to RB already? Gosh?

He's 100% correct about running backs...He's a sports talk show host, not a journalist..
I didn't listen to it yet, but just by what he says, "not running games" isn't true. The Eagles got to the SB largely due to their running game. Hurts is not a drop back quarterback. The Eagles very potent run game allowed for Hurts to throw against all run defenses.

lmao, first the offensive coordinator was bad, the offensive line was bad, and the running backs and the wide receivers were, but now the team has decided they need to run the ball to take it out of the hands of the elite quarterback. wow just wow, putting a bandaid on a gunshot isn't working.
It's everybody's fault.

Rarely do I agree with Cowherd but you win championships with QBs and the passing game. Lamar Jackson hasn’t been paid yet, because he’s closer to an RB than a QB. Pounding the ball all day keeps your scoring down. It’s a passing league and you have to throw to win. The Chiefs have become a great team because of their QB. The NFL has been a QB driven league for years. You can’t ride an RB to a championship these days. Tennessee is finding that out and reports are Derrick Henry is up for trade.

Is anyone arguing the opposite point? I don't think so.

The game has changed and many teams are using two cheap running backs to get their running game going. Dallas hasn't learned yet. But they haven't learned the value of the DT position either. Jerry is still chasing lightning bolts thinking if he can just get another set of triplets he can win another Super Bowl.
