He doesn't care.You think Dez knows what a comma is

Yes, that and the fact they’re healthy and back on the field.philbin deserves a lot of credit for getting the line to perform bettet
He gets faded AFTER the games instead of BEFORE the games, so that does help him play better.
Defiantly not washed up. He just can't do anything he wants now.
He doesn't get another contract and he knows it. This is his time and he can be thankful Pollard is there to help. Its a big help and Dallas fandom should count their blessings. Perfect storm!Agreed, but it's comical to me when people talk about he's lost his burst, etc. He is in his 6th year, many running backs, and players overall, begin to lose some of their physical sharpness by this time. But that doesn't mean he's still not one of the best backs in the league, and you don't get rid of those types of players...
He isn’t. The oline is just dominating like 2016.Ok I have to admit Elliott has me eating crow. I wanted to trade him away just a few weeks ago. Now he seems to be a very important cog in our defense.
I did mention that he seems to have lost his break away speed. I don't think that's the case. I think he has become a more patient blocker and waits for his blocks to happen. Then he picks his hole.
In 2016 he just runs straight in and looking for contact. He no longer is that Zeke.
He maybe a bit lighter than he ever was. But he seems more quicker than he ever was.
There was an episode in Hard Knocks where Zeke was talking to a young RB about being more patient. It was a good watch.
He isn’t. The oline is just dominating like 2016.
when will you people learn?
Surely you're not asking for a clear and concise Dez Bryant are you ????????Is it "Go, stupid zeke" or Go stupid, zeke" or...."Go, stupid, zeke" ?
Commas can really change that one
Frankly i'm not convinced he now has recovered the 2016 burst. In that era Zeke would not have come close to being caught from
behind at the 5 yard line on that 47 yard run.
maybe he's appreciating getting the ball more than 8 times a game. "kill, kill" yep dak going to pass it. zeke, "wake me up when you are going to give me the ball"
How about he’s in better shape, he’s rededicated, and he’s doing better? How about he’s quicker and fumbling less? How about he’s seeing the field better BECAUSE the OL’s healthy for once?
Most great running backs thrive on getting the ball 20 or more times a game, they need carries to get into a rhythm, and Zeke wears defenders down with hits, can't do that with 8-10 carries.
I'm sure there will be a game this year, maybe two or more, where teams load up to stop Zeke, and he won't have 143 yds and 7+ yard average, that won't mean Zeke is losing speed, etc. it's just football...
I think he is seeing the field better because he is now seeing holes being created by this Oline.....run blocking is excellent. Not having a Dlineman in your face once you get the ball makes a big difference...LOL.....And using McGovern at FB at the goal line has also helped. Keeping him fresh with Pollard getting some carries will help him in the latter part of the season and into the post season.
True, but Zeke was getting yards BEFORE their defense was tired, and most backs need holes to have consistent success.Not true at all. Great backs DONT need 20 carries to do their handy work. GREAT backs come in ready to roll and hit big plays and make big plays. What good is a RB that can only run well with huge holes and when the defense is tired?
