Only Chance vs Cincinnati

[jazzcat22]

Yep, one game. 6 carries isnt much. He also lost 10 yards on that stupid double reverse. Great way to kill an average.

But we have 3 years of history dont we?

I don't live in the past. This is a new year. And Pollard has not out played Zeke in any year.
They work well together, if Moore gets his head out of his butt.

Pollard has grossly outplayed Zeke EVERY year buddy. Thats why everyone is begging for more Pollard and less Zeke.

Looks like your hero hit the under last week in yards. NO 60 yard run on the first play and not 120 yards on the day eh?

We are all waiting to see what laughable claim you make this week.

"Cowboys will win by 20 and Zeke will have 170 yards and 2 TDs"!!!!

 

[Flamma]

Would you? I wouldn’t. I’d bracket Ceedee and play the two deep zone which is their bread and butter. There’s no proof we can run it consistently vs a 7 man or even 6 man front. They will do what I’d do….play to not give up the home run ball. Make Moore call a conservative game plan and run the ball 25-30 times, which he won’t do. Make Rush be accurate on the underneath stuff, and dare us to do all of that without penalties….lol. No way they load up on the Dallas run game and risk giving us an easy TD.

I agree. They won't load up against the run until we make them do it.

Moore is the reason he did not hit his rushing mark. And you know it.
Everyone is NOT begging for more Pollard. Only in your dreams and fantasy world.
Your claims are laughable. I did not claim that, it was a wild prediction. Done mainly as a jab at the Zeke haters.

If Moore is smart and gives Zeke 20 carries, he will get over 80 yards. As for TD's, Moore will find a way to screw it up. Move the ball well between the 20's. Try stupid trick plays and kick a FG.

LOL...........how telling is it that you know he needs 20 or more carries to get over 80 yards.

Whats the matter? No more grandios predictions? Learned your lesson?

Our only chance is to force the game to be decided on talent.

 

[CWR]

Forget what you think you know after game 1.
Rush is a long step down from Dak.
Our receivers were NOT running free in the TB secondary, and when a guy down the progressions had a little room, the pass rush was already moving both Dak and Rush off their marks. Our QB and WRs will struggle against the umbrella the Bengals put out there with their safeties.

Kellen Moore MUST run the ball a lot, even when we are gaining only 3 yards.
The game plan MUST incorporate both of our TEs much more often in the passing game….size is better than 3rd tier WRs without speed. Two TEs, two WRs, 1 RB…..sometimes Two TEs, 1 WR, 2 RBs with Pollard in the pass game.

I’d love to see Pollard on the wheel route from the slot or motion after the WR clears it out and Zeke sneaking out into the flat underneath him.

We can't out talent them. We have to hit them square in the mouth, with the run game. Then we have to keep it going. That will allow Rush success with PA and taking selective shots at their secondary.

It's the game plan we should've played vs Tampa as well.

This team can't win without running the ball.

I don't know what people are watching. It's not even close IMO. Pollard is way quicker than Zeke. I just wish they'd use Pollard a little more to the outside on pitches. Or even run plays just outside the T.

 

[Flamma]

Trubisky is similar to Rush. Not going to win any games.

For Pittsburgh to win, they needed 3 picks, 1 FF, a blocked XP at the end of regulation, a missed kick in regulation and a shanked FG at OT.

Steelers had no reason to win.

We won’t win this game. It’s not the end of the world. Gallup and Washington will be back soon. We should get back to 1-2, 2-2 hopefully.


Awuzie practiced against Rush for a few seasons. I am sure he is telling them not to worry. This is what gives me hope we can steal the win

LOL!!! That game was over how many times before Pitt won? That was truly a miracle win for Pitt.

Just keeping realistic in case the Bengals defense stacks the box.

Take out the stupid double reverse where Pollard lost 8 yards nothing to do with him and he averaged 4.6 ypc. Thats the low bar for him.

They can see it, they just dont want to admit it.

Im interested to see if teams come out in a two deep nickel zone like they have been doing for the last half a year. That would be dissing the run game hard if they continue to dare us to run with Dak out.

Sometimes people just can't let go. They say Zeke is a great blocker, well utilize that talent. Lets see some 20 personnel with Zeke lead blocking for Pollard. Use Zeke like they used Moose. It's worth a try.

I love it. Zeke can do what he does best and block. Pollard can do what he does best and thats run the ball. Makes perfect sense to me.

And many times many fans let their hater glasses be blind to the obvious.

I'm laughing as I'm typing this. But it's true. They'll never do it, but it might work. Then if it does work, they can draft a real FB next year. Because FBs aren't 16M dollar cap hits.

 

[CowboyRoy]

Everyone can see it buddy. Everyone but you and a handful. The numbers also show the obvious. Pollard is just better at running the ball.

You even admit yourself that if your hero doesnt get 20 carries he isnt likely to top 80 yards.

You give Pollard 20 carries and he is easily over 100 yards. Probably a couple nice long runs in there.

LOL, I love Zeke. But I want his talent to be used. Lead blocking for Pollard. I don't expect him to be the player he used to be. I expect him to be the player he is now.

Pollard would be lucky to get 50 yards on 20 carries. Unless he break a long run.
I will admit chances are he will break a longer run than Zeke.

Zeke though moves the chains which is important and ball control.

As I said, fans need to take off the hater glasses, as most do not see it the way you do.

So with 20 carries Pollard will only get 50 yards? LOL

I fail to see the logic in most of your takes.
