Twitter: Ezekiel Elliott (47-yard run) 20.66 mph top speed

[AKATheRake]

Again, we need to use the 2 RB set and when we do it produces results.

No need to overdue it every down but I think on 2nd and or 3rd downs it’s a great option. Can run and pass out of it.

Last week against the Birds Zeke had 95 yards. He was pulled with plenty of time left on the clock to run another 5 yards for to get over 100 for the day.
Can he run as fast as he use to? Probably not but I do like that he is still running hard and punishing defenders. I bet Pollard likes it also

 

[sunalsorises]

He needed to hit 21 mph to reach the end zone.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

You said he wasnt able, he proved he is. Changing your point now ?

Luuulz, the strawman is almost fully propped up!

Feel free to quote me.

The floor is yours…

Pollard needs more work.

I know Zeke is producing but Pollard almost takes it to the house nearly every other time he touches it.

FWIW this would have equaled the 4th fastest play of anyone in the 2021 NFL playoffs.

Actually, I think he messed his angle up. He pressed to far towards the sideline....made him have to straighten up when he got close which allowed the defender to get him.

These people around here will talk themselves into a bad day if the narrative fits...lol!!

If this is true then safety Jeremy Chinn must be an Olympic level sprinter.

Zeke losing weight helped his speed and endurance plus i think hearing Pollard better than him motivated Zeke too

 

[Aftershock]

What’s even more impressive is number 21 on the defense. He was like 3 yards behind Zeke and caught up to him by the time Zeke almost reached the end zone. Prob 22 mph

edit: that’s SS Jeremy chinn

Jerry needs to install a faster turf then. Home Field Advantage.

The defender had the right angle to run him down. That was not a matter of who was faster.

aint it the truth...we win a game the final score is not indicative how thoroughly we beat panthers....we are not a fake 3-1....Dak can throw for 400 yds and 4 TD's or running game can run for over 200

opening up throws for Dak....we have an offense that travels and a defense that travels and we are going to get back original starters to load up defense and offense....the coaches are confident and players

are confident which will only help preparation....unless wheels fall off...we win division which guarantees us minimum of 4th seed in playoffs....then if we can get the ball to bounce our way a few times and

some timely ref calls and turnovers....i just want to win divisional game and cowboys in champ game and if somehow we win that than superbowl?.....but getting ahead of myself...its how a team finishes

that means the most for playoffs not how they start....if we can stay relatively healthy and keep Dak up and our O line and defense healthy....easily see us in SB....but i am GORICO who has rose colored glasses

 

[gimmesix]

Angles matter.

Yeah. The only thing I would have liked to see him do differently is try to make the DB with the angle miss at the end of the run. But that's a minor gripe and might have resulted in the run just being a little shorter.

 

[gimmesix]

You know I expect some fans to not understand angles, but I thought you were better than that.

He's not.

Lots of luullz and random bull with nothing real to say. Got it, bye.

Only 20 mph? That's like driving through a school zone.

You were asked to provide a quote of me saying that, but now you’re just posturing.

Run-off, tail tucked boy.

Doesn't the flux capacitor activate at 21 mph....
