Come on man. The stats he gave you were accurate for both for the entirety of the season.

Not exactly sure what is cherry picked about the ypc for both backs for last season other than the fact that they show how successful each was for the year (which given we are talking about the upcoming season would be more relevant than a career).

And honestly if you cannot see the regression from Zeke with your own eyes after the past two+ seasons, I don't know what to tell you (and no I am not suggesting Rico is the answer either).

"Come on man"?

Underwear thief had obscene ypc too. How did that work out?

So please save your lecture mkay thank you.

Makes total sense. He was terrible his last year in Dallas. Then did nothing to move the needle while in New England. Of course Skeletor and Boy Wonder would rather bring back someone they know, even if he’s washed, then actually do the homework of a GM.

Pollard averaged 5.5 and 5.2 with double the carries the years before he took the lead gig. He averaged 4.0 last year.

Zeke played on a horrible Patriots offense with no QB. Not saying I endorse the move, but I'm seeing some folks give Dowdle more credit than he's earned. If Zeke is the best option this year, we are screwed.

I fixed it for ya

Combine the existing 2024 dead money hit from Zeke's last contract plus the vet. minimum, and Zeke would count about $7M against the cap.- Just mind boggling. And to think they let a decent contributor like Hankins walk for $2M.

Zekes deal gonna be 3-5 million.

They are the only idiots to show any interest in Zeke for 2024. I think they do it for no other reason than contrarian opposition to the fans.

Nobody cares what Zeke did in his early years.

Unfortunately Jerry cares. A lot.

There must be a city ordinance in Arlington about having a 210-215lb RB with speed and power. All our RBs are one dimensional. Can we find ONE RB in North America who can threaten the other team ?

We had one ....... Zeke ....... and Jerry wasted his youth with a crappy defense and crappy QB play

I don't disagree

Zeke needs to retire and start a twitch channel or something. He's done. He was playing like a 30+ year old RB 3 seasons ago, now he's almost 30.

Zeke is MAYBE useful as a goal line or short yardage back at this point. That's it. I can't imagine we can't find an RB like this in FA in a couple weeks or through a trade.

Zeke had that for about a season and a half before he lost that second gear.

Pollard was coming back from a significant injury and clearly just wasn't himself most of the season.

Zeke had the lowest ypc of all ball carriers on NWE but for one RB with 3 carries. Done.

This is Dak’s farewell tour. Jerry in honor of Dak’s play-off greatness has decided to bring his best friend back so they can ride off into the sunset together..

For the season, Elliott's 3.5 yards per carry was tied for the worst in the NFL. He also ranked 32nd in missed tackles forced, 29th in yards after contact per attempt and 34th in explosive runs (carries of 10 or more yards), per PFF. Those are backup numbers every day of the week, including Sunday.

Jerry must be trolling Dak at this point…
