It’s hard to rank people who over a qtr century have 3 playoff wins between them.

 

[Aikmaniac]

Murray, Zeke and MBIII

Im laughing at you, to.

Murray was a true 1-cut beast. His style was the opposite of Zeke’s. He stayed in shape, forced water intake the night before a game and kept pounding the 2nd level until they softened in the 2nd half of games. He got stronger late in games.

DeMarco was a battering ram between the tackles that I loved to watch play. His running style suited us better than Zeke’s IMO.

 

[DFWJC]

Im laughing at you, to.

That's fine.

Me and every GM or Pro Player that ever lived will laugh at you, and you can join.....I guess someone, somewhere.... and laugh back.
It's all good.

If you think MB3 was a better overall player and had a better career than Murray and Zeke....go for it.

 

[LucaBrasi]

Zeke…then everyone else.

he’s not what he once was, but he’s probably the 3rd best RB in franchise history. Nearly 70 tds, and closing in on 10,000 scrimmage yards. Only Smith and Dorsett more productive.

Ok.
I rarely laugh.
I cant find any quotes or video..can you help?

 

[mathew1184]

[goshann]

I have to agree. I may have him too high because I watched him rush for 200 in Seattle.

Barbers tds are amazing considering he retired at 28.

Murray had a great single year and unlike Zeke, not only had the incredible line but had defenses never, ever loading the box.
Prime Zeke would've easily had 2000 yards in 2014.
Elliott was better overall than Murray. Come on now. This is recency bias against him.

Murray was a Pro Bowler the year before he broke the Cowboys single season rushing record. During his rookie season he averaged 5.5 yards a carry. He ran for 897 yards on 7 starts. In his very first start as a rookie in 2012, he ran for 253 yards on 25 carries. This was a few years before the Cowboys drafted Fredericks and Martin and signed La'el.

DeMarco Murray raised that offensive line. He was drafted the same year as Tyron Smith. In 2012 he played behind an offensive line composed of 5 O-linemen that had never played their position in the NFL. In 2013 and 2014 the Cowboys added a future All Pro on the offensive line. In 2014 Murray ran for over a hundred yards in the first 8 games and 11 of the first 13.

2014 was the only season that Murray had that "incredible line".

Murray was more fun too watch though. I liked his style. Until they changed the rule for him, his lowing his head and spearing people was great.

 

[Risen Star]

1. Pollard
2. Emmitt
3. Dorsett
4. Zeke
5. Murray

 

[Risen Star]

At their best, Elliott was better than Murray.

Yes....now this is all players thru 6 years though....so equal time played.
But Barber was an animal. So fun to watch.
He was washed up after 5 years but played 7 years total.

Murray was done after 7 years too and Julius Jones too.

Murray was a good back
