Did Zeke throw a pass?

I might of stepped away for a play or two and missed it but the stat line says Zeke 1 for 1 passing for 4 yards. I can't find the play anywhere on the internet either.

Maybe they are counting that play with Wilson at QB where Zeke pitched it to Pollard. That ended in a penalty though. Other than that I don't know what else it could be.

It's not reflected in the team's website stats. I'm pretty sure he didn't throw a pass. That's a typo.

It was the play that Wilson ran at qb, I believe Zeke pitched it forward to Pollard. There was a hold down field, so the completion stood, spot foul I believe - Cowboys gained 4 yards instead of 8-10.

Football stats also has him with a pass

This is correct because the hold took place beyond the LOS after the “pass” which was a forward pitch (and incidentally a terrific play design).

It was that play when Wilson was at QB, yes. Zeke pitched to Pollard so it counted as a pass.

Oddly enough they also called a 12 yard Dak-to-Lamb play a rush, so CeeDee lost a 100 yard game and Dak went under 300 yards passing because of it.

I wondered about that because at one point Dak was over 300.

Yes, that's exactly it. Zeke passed it to Pollard and the play stood because the hold happened downfield after Pollard had gained 4 yards.

Ezekiel Elliott pass complete to Tony Pollard for 4 yards (tackle by Deion Jones). Penalty on Noah Brown: Offensive Holding, 10 yards (accepted)

Notice it doesn't say "(no play)" at the end.

He was making a pass on one of the cheerleaders....simple understanding.

 

[Zekeats]

Thanks for the info everyone. I think I remember the play now. It was close to inside the 20 if not for the penalty if I could recall.

Phillip Rivers on the Manning show Monday night: ‘Those are ABSOLUTELY passes and count toward passing yards!’

Lol. Rivers is a good dude.
