Dowdle doesn't have a name, that's why people don't like him. Cz loves nameswe are fine at rb.

Why?I would try and sign Kareem Hunt
He hasn’t made the most of his opportunities. He only averaged 1.3 yards on six carries in the opener.
I would trade for a TE Pitts. The Falcons looks like they just aren't going to use him. Or is he trash?
Falcons have got a potentially formidable attack with swiss-army-knife Patterson, 2nd year WR London and RB Allgeier, and rook Bijan Robinson joining Pitts.He isn’t trash. His QB is a fella named Desmond Ridder and Pitts lead them in receiving week 1 with 44 receiving yards, that kind of tells you what you need to know about his situation.
When did Pollard become a short yardage runner?You have to get Vaughn touches because he is a home run hitter. Eventually he will bust one long.
Luepke and Pollard should be handling short yardage carries though as the other backs are too ineffective for that.
I have not been impressed with Dowdle AT ALL, but ironically, he ran better this game than he has in the past. Sounds like the talking heads are starting to catch up with behind the scenes evaluation.On 105.3 the FAN right now .
They aren’t overly impressed with Dowdle & Vaughn.
Vaughn was used to early in the game according to Broaddus.

The run blocking has been bad. Pollard is getting met in the backfield and we know he hits the whole hard and fast
The Cowboys like Dowdle and Vaughn.I have not been impressed with Dowdle AT ALL, but ironically, he ran better this game than he has in the past. Sounds like the talking heads are starting to catch up with behind the scenes evaluation.
Vaughn will be a keeper “on the cheap”. Dowdle is probably the odd man out in a trade.
Pollard had 25 carries for a sub-3 average. Garrett would’ve been proud last nightBoth were very good run fronts in the league, it will fair better as we go. Glad Garret isn't coaching because we would have had 20 more rushes averaging a little over 2ypc.
This is how many guys they can line up at running backDon’t think they need another RB. Pollard, Dowdle, and Luepke should be able to combine for solid production. Vaughn should have special packages from mid 3rd quarter on when the defense is wearing down. Mix in his fresh legs late and try and get him in space to maintain longer drives that eat the clock. It’s all about how you use what you have.
He’s had 9 carries for 24 yards averaging 2.7 a carry. He’s had 12 offensive touches in two games. That’s what you were expecting? That’s not what many on this board were predicting for him to start the season, but it’s on par with my predictions. You are one of those hyping him.
I seriously can't believe you posted that.
You are completely ignoring the situation he was put in week one. Emmitt Smith couldn't have done better. No RB could.He’s had 9 carries for 24 yards averaging 2.7 a carry.

It's amusing that keeps pushing the situation. He knows they were running out the clock with the 2nd team oline against a stacked box. He just wants to irritate us for some odd reason.You are completely ignoring the situation he was put in week one. Emmitt Smith couldn't have done better. No RB could.
So why are you bashing a 6th rounder for only getting 12 touches in the first 2 games of his rookie season?
We all saw what he could do in the open field on Sunday.
He needs to follow his lead block on the goalline, you can't run sideways and lose 2 yards in that situation. He is young, I am sure he will from it.Dowdle doesn't have a name, that's why people don't like him. Cz loves names
Yeah because his 42 yards in two games is so impressiveThey are holding out for Zeke to be released by NE.
