Miserable rushing stat a Philly Fan told me last night

[VaqueroTD]

Only was able to watch the AFC Championship game, so I don't know if my boy got this from the TV, but here goes......

With 7 rushing TDs last night in the NFC Championship Game, Philly surpassed the Cowboys ENTIRE season rushing TD total in just one game.

I remember when we used to compare Zeke, Henry, and Sequon and who was the better RB pick since they were all drafted in the same 2-year time span. Yes, at first Zeke looked like the winner, but pretty obvious now who won that battle.

But the most disturbing part of that was that after 10 years and the results in front of them, the Jones Boys STILL picked the wrong RB for 2024. All were available, and none were out of the team's price range.

Barclay, Henry, Jacobs, and Aaron Jones were all FA’s and finished in the top 10 in rushing……

 

[Risen Star]

No Eagles fan would dare to talk to me.

Barkley was never coming here. Barkley has ties to the Philly area, and he believed Philly was a good spot for him personnel-wise. Hell, we could probably gain yards behind that o-line.. The other three, however...ya know Jerry, you could have at least picked up the phone.

Jerry is going to sign Zeke again before the 2025 season starts.

Zero chance any of them would have signed with the Cowboys. The Cowboys got who they wanted at the price they wanted. They think they won.

Henry was a legit option for Dallas but he would of cost more money.

Cap hell is real, and Henry and his 2 year 16 mil contract would of put us there.

Just ignore that 240 mil deal to the QB who can't stay healthy.

Rico was RB1.

not Zekes fault.

Truth.

also Hunt who KC got off his couch.
But none of them would have done as well here with cowboys, due to coaching and our OL.

that is amazing, and does say something about our coaches in 24. 7 rush td's by team all season is just really bad.
Dallas always try to pass it in for some reason.

Literally everyone knew we had the worst RB situation in the league after least season. We didn't take a back in the draft, then signed Zeke. Every other GM is fired just for that.

 

[CaptainAmerica12]

You realize Rico was 12th in yards. Tied with Tony Pollard. About 100 yards less than Jones. The bigger issue on offense was at QB, TE, WR2.

.....what about Dalvin Cook?....he surely deserves a second chance too.

If for nothing else, keeping saquon away from the eagles was worth signing him

Even with a poor O-line the one RB who could’ve had decent success is Saquon. Having him may have meant no injury to Dak and possibly a WC game.

Imagine J. Hurts without Saquon??? They possibly wouldn’t make the playoffs. I think Saquon is that impactful.

Truth be told however, I didn’t want him due to injury concerns. Funny thing is he had a heavy workload this season and didn’t get hurt. I feel if he were here he’d only play 11-12 games and be hurt just like he was with NY.

yea but Royce Freeman had the most potential per dollar

 

[Aven8]

yea but Royce Freeman had the most potential per dollar

Preferred him over Zeke

 

[EST_1986]

Preferred him over Zeke

honestly I'd prefer you over Zeke

And most of it was done in the last half of the season. He could've easily had more yards if we was given carries earlier on.
