Coach jones insists on Zeke because there is a large inventory of Jerseys he has to sell off (btw, they are #21 jersey's left over before the last time Zeke left dallas).

Why would MM not say NO? It makes no sense to me. Your about to be fired, why let him dictate anything anymore?

I'm sure you know a lot of football but NOBODY saw Rush throwing for under 50 yards. He played the worst game of his career and probably one of the worst QB games in the history of the franchise.

Well like I said before.... i appreciate him contributing to that 5 game winning streak.

But I bust out laughing when a few folks here bring that winning streak up as if HE was the reason we were on that run. During that winning streak he could barely pass for over 100 yards. Those people who brag on him and using that winning streak as if it was a badge of honor conveniently leave out the fact that he barely put up NFL level quarterback numbers during those games.

I'm just glad the Rush/Dak comparisons are finally over. Rush couldn't carry Daks jock strap and Dak isn't even on the elite level.

I said it during the game, there's no way I will believe that McCarthy or the RBs coach wanted to replace Dowdle with Zeke in the 1st half.
Yes, the RB situation is weird. Offseason gossip is going to be fun.

For some reason we just refuse to run the ball even when its working. I believe our first 4 plays were pass plays the last game.
I was at the game and Philly played both safeties back almost exclusively. They were daring Dallas to run the ball. McCarthy should’ve gone Bill Belichick and run it 50 out of 53 plays.

He was setup to fail. I mean we have one WR, can’t protect in passing game and won’t stick with the only RB who can get any yards. Rush is a solid backup but this is just a bad offense and we don’t call plays to help a QB

I don’t think MM has ever liked the run game. Zeke should not have been brought back but he is not getting a lot of touches anyway. The fumble was bad but we were called for a flag on the play. Then Philly turned right back over. That’s when the sun got in CeeDee’s eyes then Dowdle had a 2 yard loss on 3rd and 3. Bringing Zeke back shows how bad JJ is at being a GM. But the offensive issues are a lot bigger than Zeke
