Our running backs last night

[BAT]

well if you mean Dak was continuously throwing into triple coverage correct, lol

It's going to be triple or double coverage when attacking zone defense.

Especially underneath.

 

[BAT]

Zeke is terrible. He is one of the least threatening players in the entire NFL now. Slow looks for contact and goes down easy. I can barely watch him play.

Then close your eyes.

Zeke was lone bright spot on offense last night.

well that feeds right into Dak's inability to find 2nd and 3rd reads...imagine having coaches who exploit weaknesses and not feed into them?

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Zeke 10 carries for 52 yards. We were running it on them, but Moore abandoned the run for some reason.

Also, how many 3rd downs did Pollard get run over on the way to a QB pressure or sack? Pollard is a liability protecting the QB, whereas Zeke has always been an asset.

Poor coaching.

well, he had good reason to abandon it...you know those WR screens... and those multi reciever 5 yard curl routes.

Do you understand that Cowboys had only 2 WRs running short hitting routes on majority of the plays?

Cowboys were in max protect all night.

Which makes it a little sad that they could not protect. Even more so that either KM or the WRs could not figure out that you beat zone by finding the gap in the zone and getting to them. Instead they ran routes like they were playing man coverage.

last night I almost give Dak a pass as this was a MASH unit of wr's ont he field....in normal times this has been an issue with him ven when having shots down field

Elliott's longest run was a measly 7 yards last night & he's getting paid $15 million per season. What a joke!

They didn’t run him enough. Nor Pollard.

He got a measly 10 carries despite averaging more than 5 yards per carry. What a coaching joke.

Also, how many 3rd downs did Pollard get run over on the way to a QB pressure or sack? Pollard is a liability protecting the QB, whereas Zeke has always been an asset.

Poor coaching.

Pollard can't be trusted in pass pro. He a good change of pace RB, that's about it.

 

[BAT]

A good HC figures this out DURING the game Mike.

Agree 1000 percent.

Zeke gets paid either way.

Might as well use him.

 

[JoeKing]

Averaging 5.2 yards per carry, how hard is it to see feeding Zeke is one of the only things working for the offense? Kellen Moore is killing us.

 

[DuncanIso]

Pollard can't be trusted in pass pro. He a good change of pace RB, that's about it.

TonyP is great in the C Gap. He has speed.

He cant pass block.

Why he was on the field, and Zeke wasnt, during the 4th down try??? "Brilliant."

Poor coaching.

Part of this is that you can't run every play and once dak threw an incompletion they felt they needed to throw again to make up for it. add in the penalties and you kinda have to throw on those downs if you actually want a 1st down. CD going 2 of 11 killed the offense. The only one worth a dam was schultz.

Ever hear of TANDEM?

MM assures us that's the way to use the RB. Alternate them every series.

Offensive genius he is.

Penalties put you way behind the chains, it affects the run game tremendously. Especially pre snap.Go look at them and whe. They happen

 

[nate dizzle]

That means he was consistently churning out around 5 ypc. No big run to skew the numbers. Abandoning that is stupid.

Lol..you're a joke. The length of his runs has nothing to do with his money, he was averaging over 5 yards a carry, and long runs isn't the only thing a rb does.
