Do you guys think Zeke will win the rushing title this year? Break the 2000 yard benchmark?

He'll need some help from the passing game, because he will see a lot of stacked boxes until Dak and the receivers make them back off.

No and No.

He won't get enough touches.

Too crowded backfield.

There are some great backs and some good line out there. But he should win it. The only issue I have is the fact they don't utilize him enough in the passing game. They keep having this dumb Dunbar/Austin wet dream.

 

[jobberone]

Possible not likely.

 

[wssaustin]

Prepare for the worst would be safe.

 

[Buzzbait]

I'm skeptical Verdict. I do expect to see improvements in our offense this year, but for Zeke to get 2000 yds rushing would require a very successful passing game, and that remains to be seen.

It sounds like on All or Nothing Zeke is more focused on partying, I don't know, but he's young, our line wasn't as good as it has been, but then again it wasn't as bad as others have said either.

No, now that they have some legit WRs, they'll be racking up yards in the passing game.

Imagine if you had been playing golf with a croquet mallet for about 8 years and now you have a full set of Titanium Drivers and Custom fitted irons.

I would argue that of the 7 2,000 yard rushers, only Terrell Davis played with a good passing attack. In fact I would say most of them played on teams with awful passing games.

There is no way to prepare for the worst. You go in there prepared with your best!

If the worst happens we have 2015 again (but I don't see that happening).

 

[HowardC]

I definitely think that he can. He will be a man on fire after what happend to him last year.

 

[Verdict]

No, now that they have some legit WRs, they'll be racking up yards in the passing game.

Lol. Nice visual.

This is just ridiculous. He should lead the league in rushing and push Emmitt's two best seasons but fall short of 2000. Demarco's 2014 is reasonably within reach.

 

[iRepDatStar]

If he plays all 16 games I would say yes

 

[Tabascocat]

Not a chance, he needs Dez to keep the defense honest.

Sorry, could not resist

 

[TwoDeep3]

Yes and maybe.

 

[RoboQB]

I agree 100%. For example, 1800 yards would be an average of just over 112 a game.
He has 2 career games under 80 yards. I think he wins the rushing title by 400 yards.

 

[Cowpolk]

YES with over 2300 rushing yards

 

[Proof]

This is just ridiculous. He should lead the league in rushing and push Emmitt's two best seasons but fall short of 2000. Demarco's 2014 is reasonably within reach.

I’m shocked that not many people think so. There’s not many workhorse backs in the league anymore. Lot of committees. If he doesn’tget hurt it should be a lock.

2,000 is a pipe dream next yr though
