Heading into Sunday's game with the Chargers, it was easy to focus on the five players the Cowboys were missing.

And while it wasn't forgotten, the return of Zack Martin might have been somewhat overshadowed.

How do they come up with us?
 
It's good to have The President back on the field again!

Speaking of, still one of my favorite draft moments of all time.....

I'll go back later tonight and count them, but I'm pretty sure the majority of Pollard's carries were over the right side and Zeke's were over the left.
 
How do they come up with us?

It is just how they grade players. I don't put much into these grading systems but I like when a great player like Zack gets outside recognition for the outstanding play he displayed this past game. Zack was blowing open some big holes for the RB and while the Pollard and Zeke get the headlines it all started up front with the play of Zack Martin.
 
Interesting.

Worked out something like this.(runs left/right of center)

Zeke: L-12, R-4 (TD was over the right side)
Pollard: L-4 R-9

Pollard was simply running through bigger holes. Make what you want out of this, but I'm pretty sure if Zeke had the same protection against the same personnel as Pollard, he'd have had a monster day running through the lanes Pollard had.
