Random observation from the game

[Section446]

If you've ever been to a game, you know that the Cowboys show highlights at various points throughout the game (whoever puts them together is amazing, they're great videos).

Last night, they showed somewhere between 6-8 videos (usually about a minute long). What was really crazy is that there wasn't a single Zeke sighting in any of the videos. I'm probably over thinking this, but isn't it odd that they wouldn't show a single clip of (maybe) their biggest star?

I'm sure it's related to the suspension, but it was surprising, considering how certain they are that he's innocent.

Are the videos usually personalized for the game or do they change week to week?

If a player suffers a season ending injury or any significant injury, probably not a good idea to still show highlight vids the next week. Zeke is essentially missing 6 games for an injury at this point so no need to show highlights of a player not available.

I'm sure Jerry isn't turning his back on him if that is what you're applying.

I saw his giant head once on the sideline.

They are generally the same all season. Every now and then, they'll change it up. It was all highlights from last year.

I saw Zeke but it seemed like the camera moved off him very quickly...

Yeah, he was on the screen in the background once, but nowhere to be seen on the highlights.

subtle way of sending a message to a young player to reign things in, become a NFL pro, its a easy come and a easy go world of NFL stardom.

No. It's a way to control the narrative.

He's under fire for the suspension -- you don't put him on the big screen...let the storm blow over.

 

[Section446]

Oddly enough, there weren't any Kellen Moore highlights either.

 

[Nova]

Hey what section were you in at the game?

 

[Alexander]

I saw Zeke but it seemed like the camera moved off him very quickly...

It also did not appear that anyone was interacting with him all that much.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

I saw his giant head once on the sideline.

Nobody believed me but I saw a gum wrapper orbiting his head once.

 

[Idgit]

They might not want to have risked him getting booed.

 

[Silver Surfer]

There were if you were a Lions' fan.

 

[Ranching]

They might not want to have risked him getting booed.

They were probably afraid the crowd would break into a Free Zeke chant.

I kept an eye on the sideline a lot, to be fair, he wasn't going out of his way to talk to anyone either.

 

[Idgit]

They were probably afraid the crowd would break into a Free Zeke chant.

That too. It's hard to say how a crowd might react. Either way, a low profile right now makes the most sense.

 

[okstateCowboy]

My observation was how small Moore looks on the field. Every time his face was shown on the big screen he looked liked he was about to crap his pants.

Of course the suspension is weighing heavy on him. Especially when you know you did nothing wrong but is accused of something serious.

His mind is preoccupied, and for good reason. That could ultimately ruin him with endorsements. Can you imagine knowing you're innocent, and the chick who said she'd ruin your life actually could accomplish that? Talk about dealing with a lot on your mind.
