Twitter: Negotiations with Zeke have intensified **merged**

[QuincyCarterEra]

Maybe because everyone in the stadium knew what the play was.

It is very odd that Zeke's failures are ALWAYS a function of someone else not doing their job. The way I see if, if everyone in the stadium knew we'd run the play in that direction they'd load the box on Zeke, but they didn't(league average loaded boxes).

Then it's always Dak's fault, nobody elses.

Good ones are, great ones aren't.

* ya, that #21 is a bit better than good, kinda hard in denying that observable fact.

Well Linehan's feed Zeke at all costs offense got him fired, we'll see how much changes with Moore at the controls.

I find it odd that a guy can lead the NFL in rushing since he arrived in the league yet some fans look for any reason to criticize him.

I can barely imagine the criticism he'd get if he was a top-five pick bum like Trent Richardson.

When you look at the nitty gritty analysis, Zeke is not nearly as special as people want to claim.

He’s a really good TB. But we are about to pay him the largest contract for a TB ever.

Insane.

Zeke's awesome but stats are all about volume..

Any RB that gets 300+ carries is going to be a league leader in rushing.

McFadden was 8th in rushing in 2015, averaging 4.6 yards per carry, with 237 carries.

Give him 300+ Carries and he would finish top 3 and look very Zekeish on paper.

Good ones are, great ones aren't.

Nothing in that tweet I responded to stood out as great to me. He's not that special as to break the bank for. Really good, yes. Great, no.

Agree to disagree.

If he's so great, that shouldn't matter.

He's well above average, a top 5 back for sure. Even top 5 backs aren't worth the kind of cash he wants though. Especially with his laundry list of issues and the fact that I believe most RBs would be at least serviceable behind this o-line. See top 5 rushing attack in 2015 with Alf and Run DMC at the helm.

 

[Vegas_Cowboy]

Agree to disagree.

I'm down with that.

It does matter.

He'd have to grow his hair and get a nose ring.

"He's lead the league is rushing yards two of his three years, and would have again if......"

Well yes, he had at least 20+ carries than every other running back every year, so most above average backs would lead the league in rushing. What about his rushing TDs, lack of broken tackles per carry, lack of elusiveness, average yards per carry, his league leading fumbles, lack of gaining dirty yards, his poor route running, his lack of long plays, his..

"BUT HE LEAD THE LEAGUE IN RUSHING!!!!"

@Jake
Yikes

 

[QuincyCarterEra]

Being able to carry the ball a bunch of times is unique and cool I guess.
Doesn't make you elite or help your team win.

Hopefully some start to catch on.

Yup and the weird part is he LIKES to run to contact instead of away from it. You'd think a back of his size that seeks out contact would be better at shedding it.

Oh, bro, You know that K. the Hammer M. would absolutely luv to have the #21's blocking /pass protect capabilities out there on the field, let alone, slipping him out &around the edge down the sidelines opposite of the #10 ,,,whom is ghost coasting to a T.D. as him being the primary targeted #1 to begin with

We'll see if it pays off for him. So far today, Todd Archer looks to be right.
