Prescott and Zeke lead in fumbles at their positions

That’s not “nitpicking”, genius

A top 5 pick getting 300+ carries and not tipping double digit TDs is a valid criticism

A top 5 pick leading the league in fumbles at his position, not nitpicking (even adjusting, it’s still high)

Pointing out his rushing title comes from volume rather than actual weekly production is not a nitpick.

How many times are we in the red zone and we go 3 straight passes instead of running the ball? How much are defenses keying on Zeke instead of Dak? Has Zeke EVER had fumble problems before this anaomly of a year? The best ability is availability it speaks volumes that Zeke can handle this workload and never gets hurt and is leading the league while being our most focused on weapon. You make no sense and are coming across as a pissy whiner complaining about the best rb.
 
Good point. Emmitt Smith had 19 fumbles during his first 3 years in the NFL. I'm sure the OP would have cut Smith had he been the GM. Especially since Smith was only averaging 4.53 yards per touch after 3 seasons(5034 yards from scrimmage). Elliott averages 5.23 yards per touch(5247 yards from scrimmage) through almost 3 seasons. Elliott is complete trash and should be dealt. I don't know why Jimmy Johnson kept Smith. The smart move obviously would have been to move on.

Yep. Apparently Emmitt wasn't very good and only led the league in rushing because he kept getting more opportunities than other guys. Jimmy not moving on from him probably cost them like 5 more Super Bowls.

6 of Barkley’s TDs this year came from outside the red zone.

Where is Zeke’s homerun hitting?
 
I already adjusted the numbers - having 2-3 players ahead of him doesn’t absolve Zeke’s fumble problem.

Try again.
The RB that leads the NFL in rushing yards, total yards, and touches over the last three seasons combined require no absolution from me or you.

Telling him to watch his fumbles would be like telling him to control his fatigue, the health of his offensive line and the playcalling of his OC.

Volume stats, genius.

YOU already brought up his carries, yet you can’t seem to grasp why he leads in rushing?

Bud, if Barkley and Gurley has similar touches they would be near or exceed Zeke in rushing - they would certainly have more all-purpose yards and more TDs.

Volume =\= better

And Zeke has a fumble problem. He needs to fix it. End of story.
 
He carried this offense to 0 points just a couple weeks ago and has given us a grand total of 7 points in 4 weeks
Amazing…….that all on Zeke???.....we've seen all season....everybody knows the who the head of the snake is.....why you don't amazes me. But since there's critique of Zeke.....let's simply place him on the 2018 Fall Guy Nominee list.
 
Dak has 12 fumbles
Zeke has 6 fumbles (tied with Cohen)

Fumbles come back to bite you in the playoffs - remember 2014 Packers game?

No excuse, hold onto the dang ball! 18 fumbles between our “Good QB” and “MVP RB”
The funny thing is no one ever talks about Zeke's fumbling issues. With Dak and Zeke being primary ball handlers they need to keep this in check during the playoffs
 
Lost fumbles I am concerned about, not recovered.
 
Volume stats. Again, if Gurley and Barkley has the same States they would have equal or MORE yards and MORE TDs.

Next!
Not sure what you’re arguing? All I know is Zeke is a stud at RB and can help lead this team to the SB.
