FEATURED Ezekiel Elliott named PFWA Offensive Rookie of the Year AND Rookie of the Year

[Coy]

Zeeeeke, awsome for him, this was a no brainer.

 

[Ranching]

Too bad they don't run him more on third and short.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

Didn't realize they had store separate awards. Thought they just had offense and defense.

 

[Silver N Blue]

Well there is a ray of sunshine on a dark week! Well deserved young stallion well deserved!

 

[WoodysGirl]

As a side note, those aren't the awards recognized by the NFL. These are:

• AP NFL Most Valuable Player Award
• AP Coach of the Year Award
• AP NFL Offensive Player of the Year Award
• AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award
• Pepsi NEXT Rookie of the Year (formerly Pepsi MAX Rookie of the Year)
• AP Offensive Rookie of the Year Award
• AP Defensive Rookie of the Year Award
• AP Comeback Player of the Year Award

Taken from Wikipedia. None of these have been decided yet.

Adjusted the title just in case there are other awards.

Well deserved. Unbelievable rookie class with Elliott, Collins, Brown and what Jaylon Smith could bring next year. Even Frazier looks like a decent depth player.

I see you.
Hey how about the nads on that coach

My guess is that Dak and Zeke spilt ROY and OROY in the "official" awards recognized by the NFL. That's what happened for the awards for the 2014 (Bridgewater-Beckham) and 2015 (Winston-Gurley) seasons.

 

[Sportsbabe]

No more empty sets!

At least keep the defense guessing as to if we'll feed the beast.

Never understood that.

 

[DFWJC]

Congrats Zeke.

just fyi
The "official" awards usually come out right before the Super Bowl.

Maybe this award will make the Cowboys realize that they can give him the ball on 3rd & 2 instead of continually passing it during very important playoff games.

Yes, I'm bitter. lol

 

[tyke1doe]

Good enough to carry the rookie class, not good enough to carry 30 times or more in the playoffs. Yea!

Nice. Congrats to our stud rookies-no-more.

On a side note, Zeke is also up for FedEx Ground Player of the Year, against Johnson & Bell.

 

[Ken]

Meanwhile, I am more pissed that Collins and Brown weren't also First Team. BS.

 

[Virginia-Dave]

They will eat this decision in 2017. Dak will leave no doubt who the most valuable player on this team is in 2017.

You Zeke fans: When Zeke is gone in about 6 or 7 years, Dak will still be here winning you division, conference, and world titles.

Dak was robbed.

Take Zeke away we're 12-4 at worst. Take Dak away and we're struggling to get 7 wins!

With experience under his belt, Dak will crush the uneducated and doubters.

This is my response when they foolishly give this award to Zeke at the NFL Honors Awards.

IGNORED

This post is a joke just like the poster

 

[Thomas82]

No surprise here, and well-deserved!!

You're probably right. NFL awards will be announced first week of February.

 

[DAL1180]

See what you did there.

And I thought I just misread the post.
