Elliott 33 yards

[mattjames2010]

Who could they have had a 4 and who would have been their back? We were playing in a tight SB window and we blew it.

It's not a "tight SB window" if you draft his replacement. I'm saying you need to give up something to move up and get your guy. Instead, we chose a flash position that doesn't win super bowls.

Who cares who the back would be? Pick up one in FA, it's a **** position. It's only glorified when you have surrounding talent - Gurley is now great against because he has an actual QB, good coaching staff, and defense. Same with Lynch. Same with Rice. These RBs didn't win their teams super bowls, they were benefits on already loaded teams.

Zeke should be on the trade block, we need to get picks and get our guy. Zeke is nothing but a jersey seller.

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

Yep the second best RB in the league is trash .

yep .

/end sarcasm .

 

[waving monkey]

Lol. And what “chances” does he need to be the best RB in the NFL like so many homers claim? How delusional are you bro?

Can you explain? Zeek wasnt getting any room. The oline was beat all day long?

 

[dwreck27]

lol...ok...u are right...neither are provable..

Except you can actually see what i m saying happen. His turn of his hips happens when bracing for the defender.

No he pumps to throw... second guesses it... boom sack/fumble due to his indecision

This is Dak. He always second guesses himself into these situations

 

[mattjames2010]

What does Elliot’s draft position have to do with the inept coaching staff not knowing how to utilize their talents and being predictable on offense.

It shouldn't be difficult to understand why taking an RB in the top 5 is a mistake unless you're loaded at nearly every other position. Even with the "win now" state, that 2015 team was not loaded and needed a lot of help outside of the RB position.

Gurley was always great. So Zeke would even be greater with a great QB, including the tight window with Romo. You go with Zeke and look for his replacement in the next few years.

Zeke’s numbers his first three years are right on par with Adrian Peterson. They are basically equivalent and both of them had scrub QBs.

Zeke is an impact player anyway you try and spin it.

 

[dwreck27]

Dak rushed for a td, and passed for a TD .

He isn't MVP material, but better than average in this game.

Except he lost the game with his terrible sack/fumble

Kind of a tough thing to sweep under the rug lol

 

[nate dizzle]

Probably for the best because with Zeke's history...he is shoelaced tackled for no gain.

Weird how he manages to have 5 ypc when he's tackled so easily.

 

[HungryLion]

What happens to qbs?

I actually blame The OL for the loss today much more than Dak.

I think Dak played ok, other than the fumbles.

The OL was horrible today.

 

[wileedog]

Dak rushed for a td, and passed for a TD .

He isn't MVP material, but better than average in this game.

And lost 2 fumbles and missed about 20 wide open receivers today. That's not average, that's worse.

 

[waving monkey]

Zeke isn't a problem. But for a #4 overall pick he should be more of the solution.

I didnt see have today amnd Im not being a homer here. The skins dline was giving up nothing

 

[uvaballa]

He still leading the league in rushing? lol

How is his all purpose yards compared to all over RBs?

The fumbles is why we lost the game though...

Take those fumbles away and you have two scrappy teams fighting it out for a must win game in the division that were playing in a slobber knocker

You give the other team two fumbles and thats what you get

Gurley looked average in 2016.

As much as I defend Romo, with his injury history and age, you get your franchise QB. Zeke may be a great player, but he's a great player at a devalued position. It is what it is.

And so did Goff, meaning the QB play was garbage. The difference between Goff and Dak is the former has the tools to be a good starting QB. Gurley became worth it when Goff stepped up because of McVay. The fact is even they drafted a high profile, impact RB.

Who were we going to draft at 4 at QB?

 

[kevinhickey]

This is why you don’t draft a RB 4th overall. Congrats on your 33 yards or whatever it was Zeke. Fantastic!

As I’ve always said, he goes as far as the O line goes. Nice flashy, luxury pick Jerrah.

Washington had 9 guys in the box and we continued to run.

No argument there. Dak needs to hold onto the ball. The fumbles killed us.

But I do think the OL’s performance was worse than Dak’s overall. They made everybody’s job so tough because as I said. They were TERRIBLE today.

 

[aria]

Bro!!! This was on dak missing 3 dudes and allowing himself to take a sack/fumble that cost us the game!

lol how do you spin it as zekes fault at that exact point? lol

If anything I can respect you blaming Conor for having that terrible hold call that negated the throw to Bease

Did I ever blame the loss on Zeke? Qoute me where I said this loss was his fault amd I’ll answer you, until then zip it.

 

[aria]

So again, Zeke is great as long as he has perfect conditions. Sounds like a Dak excuse.

And yet with that terrible performance we were still in the game and a chance to win it.. that last fumble put the game up two scores on us when we stil had all 3 time outs and 6 mins left in the quarter only down by 3.

Punt it away play defense and see what happens.
