Video: Every Carry From Ezekiel Elliott vs. Seahawks

[Trouty]

Bease with a drop at :31 -- hurting Dak's numbers, Bease!

The only complaint i have was on 1 run where he sought contact and gave up yardage, if he moves to the left he has at least another 15yds.

Bit of a poor read actually, there was a lot of space, but he certainly didn't have the angle on it.

I think he was sending a message to a team that was trying to intimidate a rookie. He took what they gave and gave it right back. That run was a tone setter. You need those every once in a while.

I would add Jackson in there as well. He passed blocked very well tonight. Caught 1 pass 8 yards and had 5 rushes for 30 yards behind 2nd and 3rd string OL.

Great 3 back punch

Good to hear. I didnt catch tbe last quarter

 

[Idgit]

He finished those runs with tremendous lean.

And I'm such a dork, but I love the work in pass protection. And love that you can see he's pissed when Romo gets hurt. He takes protecting the QB seriously.

I was just going to say the same thing. Glad i scrolled down and saw your comment. Dont want to take credit from you lol. I agree though. He was basically like. Oh you want to hit me cuz im a rook? Ok, "but brick not hit back"

Great minds think alike, brother.

Any indication of Zekes hamstring being an issue during the game?

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't concerned about it being an ongoing issue.

Zeke's blocking looked excellent. He actually played better tonight than I expected. He's not a super speedster, but he is incredibly shifty and more physical than I expected. He also has attitude as shown by him not being afraid of Kam Chancellor. Our team is showing a lot of toughness, which I like. Once we get the defense shored up and add a receiver, teams will start to regret having to play the cowboys.

He had 7-8 blocks or correct pickups and only missed 2. 1 was a CB blitz that he missed and was late to pickup that ended up a sack but a few plays later they tried again and Jackson got it right. Shows he corrects mistakes and is learning from them.

I say he makes the roster as 3rd RB behind Zeke and Morris

That's why it's not that big of a complaint from me, i just don't want to see that in the regular season. With this defense we'll need all the yards we can get on offense.

While I agree to a certain extent it DOES get in the back of the head (especially DBs) of a defender when they know that guy is coming again late in the 4th quarter. They aren't as eager to stick they're nose in there when they know they're going to get rocked. As much as I hated the guy Brandon Jacobs used to do the same thing to us all the time.

Defenses already regret playing us

Elliott does not have a history of hamstring issues. He says he has never had an issue before. My guess is that with the time off from Ohio State and jumping right into an intense program after a layoff, he probably overworked his hamstring a bit. It was a strain it wasn't a pull/tear. I think we're overthinking this here. He'll be fine.

 

[AsthmaField]

LOL, watch Zack Martin on that very first play in that video. After the pile stops moving, Zack just throws his guy to the ground like a ragdoll.

One of the Seattle defenders grabs Martin's arm when he sees the guard throw his team mate and Zack tries to elbow him in the head.



Straight up beast.

 

[drawandstrike]

Just think, we've never seen Romo [or Dak], Elliot and Dez out there at the same time in a real game yet.

 

[egn22]

Maybe it's me but I thought Zeke looked incredibly fast on all of those runs. I'm very excited

 

[Texas_Pete]

Love it. He did not back down and wasn't intimidated in the least vs one of the most fearsome defenses in the league.

I'd love to get audio on Kam post-game. Tried to deliver a punishing tackle on Zeke (instead he got trucked and missed the tackle ).

Zeeeeke!
