Pollard was doing great when Zeke was taking the heat and getting the dirty inside carries.
Then Zeke was released, Pollard become the lead back, and has been doing no better than Zeke.
Zeke cleared waivers, could have been signed for cheap and let Pollard continue to do great. Zeke didn't have to be the lead back, he could have split carries with Pollard and helped wear down the defense, as well as keep teams off balance, defensively.
But noooooo, folks wanted Pollard, Pollard and more Pollard. So here we are 15th in the league in rushing. Pollards' ypc is no better than Zeke's last year.
Big whoop.
Even if Zeke was "washed up", there were other backs available. Fournette? Personally, I don't think Fournette is at this point any better than Zeke, but for the sake of argument let's say he is, where is he now? Not on the Cowboys. What about some undrafted 2023 college player? Are you telling me every single back with a modicum of skills was drafted?
You see, whether it be Pollard's fault, the line's fault, Dak's fault, McCarthy's fault, it still comes back to one person - Jerry Jones, our so-called general manager.
So gripe all you want, argue all you want, ain't gonna make a single bit of difference until Jerry is not running things....
