How Many More Wasted Snaps does Zeke get?

I literally cringe every time he spells Rico. He brings absolutely zero to the table. Slow. Zero burst. I can’t even say he picks up the blitz well anymore. It makes no sense. The sad thing is, this ridiculous coaching staff will give him more carries on Thursday because of the shirt week. I’ll scream till I’m blue in the face to get Duece more carries.

One is too many. Jerry likes Zeke but he’s hurting the team. Bench him at least. I’d cut him myself

I remember you and I both posting advanced stats for years from years ago during his prime that showed he was like underperforming expectations, but quite a decent margin...but ppl love their fav players. He always seemed a me-first player in spite of accolades to the contrary about his blocking, etc. That feed-me thing was just annoying. Wanted to love the guy, but I maintain more than a few RBs could have put up similar numbers behind those early lines and that is recognizing how historic his performance was, but moreso how great those lines were. I think you posted something about his number of runs over 40 yards is so far down the bell curve of statistically likely, something like 5 in 2000 carries.

Now I hate on him more than I should as he's just an avatar for the current state of the franchise. And I'll also suspect Garrett didn't do him any favors, but I just imagine there were so many 50+ yard runs, or even 10-20+ left on the field.


I will say this - his negotiations skills were definitely top-5 worthy and good for him - hopefully he's just sitting on that bag and can enjoy life.

he's hurting the team how by his five snaps a game are you kidding me why don't you all go get a life worrying about how many snaps zeke gets is insane to worry about Jerry doesn't control who plays and who doesn't go look at the snap counts from Ezekiel Elliott the last three games they're not existent he's giving Rico a breather good God people calm down we have more things in life to worry about is how many snaps he gets 'cause you think he's wasting A-Team whose season is already over..

They gonna feed Zeke so he can jump into the kettle. I have no doubt. So probably he gets 20 carries.

He’s more likely to puke in it from being hungover than jumping in it
 
One of the problems for zeke is....3 carries. He's just not built for that. Like emmitt...he's a later in the game rb After he beats you up some.

We apparently have no patience for that do yes....a waste.

But we like doing that here....wasting players, teams, seasons.
 
It's ridiculous that he's not only on the team but active on gameday! Resigning him was a joke and he did nothing but solidify that.

Yep, 2,226 career carries (including postseason games) and just five (5) runs of 40+ runs.

Saquon Barkley has six (6) already just this year alone.
 
Zeke is a progress stopper, I'm not thinking Deuce is a decent NFL RB, but I definitely believe he should get the carries behind Rico to see what he can be. The Cowboys are unserious for having Zeke on the roster, and a joke for giving him reps...it's a waste.
 
They way Jerry is bloviating after a missed XP fluke gives us an ugly win, I expect Jerry to extend Zeke.
