Twitter: Looks like Zeke won't play vs Packers

Sounds about right. We do need him but nothing wrong with not playing if you can’t.

He should have sat last year at times when he insisted on playing.

Just hope the injury isn’t worse than we know. Can’t stand the dude and his act but again, we need him to help carry the load if this team is going anywhere this year.

A heavy running back with a knee issue is a bad combo. They need to get him right for when it really matters. I am in favor. Too drunk right now to remember but that UFA guy that ran with Pollard looks like a keeper. It will be ok. Onward and upward.

Probably a good decision.

I trust Pollard can get the job done again…

This is a long season and the odds of Zek getting this knee issue to go away are zip, zero, none! Let's face it, they are going to have to pick and choose their battles with this knee issue. If this game was against Philly he would probably be starting in the back field, but it's not so give him more time to rest his body.

Please let this mean we learned from our stupidity last year. It's not a good gameplan to feature a slow, hobbled, power runner.

Good move, get him healthier for December. The Cowboys don't need him for this game, probably need him for the Viking game.

The Cowboys need to be running on all cylinders after Thanksgiving. The last thing they need is a hobbled Zeke.

So Elliott is the one who dictates his playing time? The coaches have nothing to do with it?

The lunacy that fans have when they don’t like a player is insane.

It could be because of the three games in 12 days. They may think it's probably not the best time to test a knee coming off of injury.

Hope Pollard has another great game.

It is good to rest Zeke in this game and just let Pollard run wild.

 

[cnuball21]

Just make sure we don’t give Pollard more than 15 carries according to the boards he’ll pass out and faint anything passed that…

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

24-13 if Zeke plays.

32-13 if Zeke doesn't play.

Cowboys.

you stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night?

Or according to his RB coach who said he told him I'm done, I have nothing left.

But it's just those unfair fans!

It's only 1:23pm!!

Good. I would prefer he sit the rest of the season as well.
