Jerry: Zeke return is like Emmitt, will be considered for ROH

[Risen Star]

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on @1053thefan compared it to Emmitt Smith coming back to face the Cowboys while with the Cardinals when talking about Ezekiel Elliott playing Sunday at AT&T Stadium. Jones said he was holding out hope before Elliott signed with the Patriots that he'd return to the Cowboys. Jones also said Elliott is someone that will be considered for the Ring of Honor. "Zeke had a lift to it for the whole franchise."

My God. If Zeke gets into the ROH before Jimmy (or at all). I think I would be done with this franchise.

Jerry Jones is a moron

Might as well find a new team now lol

Zeke's strongest selling point for the ROH is it wouldn't threaten Jerry's ego.

Turns 81 next month. Tick tock.

Please do. That would send the message (as if it hasnt been already) that its the Jerry ring of honour. Not the Cowboys.

A drunken moron.

If Zeke is truly in consideration for the ROH...then what Troy said is true. This has become Jerry's ROH instead of the Dallas Cowboys ROH.

I was a huge Zeke fan from about 2016-2019. One of my favorite players on the team at the time.

But he doesn't belong in the same sentence as Emmitt. Hell, not even the same paragraph. These two things are not the same.

It really has become that.

It's going to be a glorious day.

This has to be simple gamesmanship by Jerry.....right?.....someone please tell me that's the case.

Or Dorsett for that matter.


Zeke had a small window where he was good.

8000+ yards rushing and 68 TDs.

Decent numbers, but nowhere near what should qualify for the RoH. Letting in people who did not do anything significant for the team be it breaking records, finishing top 10 all time at your position, and/or being a big reason the Cowboys won at least one Super Bowl will lessen the prestige of the RoH.

Zeke, nice player no championships, gets into ROH.

Jimmy Johnson, who built Jerry's SB teams, coached two of them to SBs. Nope.

If this doesn't highlight the ridiculousness, arrogance and stupidity of Jerry, nothing will.

 

[KJJ]

Jerry is really starting to lose it comparing Zeke’s return to Emmitt’s and considering him for the ROH.

 

[OGSixshooter]

Zeke didn't stay in shape and once he got paid his production dropped - that's not "honorable"...all puns intended.
