I have said repeatedly I think Zeke will be very good here.

I have also said repeatedly we didn't need to spend a 4th on a running back to have an elite rushing attack.

Are you so obtuse that you don't understand nuance... like.... at all?

You attempting to backpedal and talk out of both sides of your mouth with "nuance" is a complete cop out response to any criticism over your initial comments re: Zeke Elliott.

You are not allowed to have nuance with something as binary as a 4th overall selection, especially one who has thus far proven to be everything that you claimed it would not be. Stand by your feelings or don't -- and take the online lashing like a man or woman (whichever you are).

So now he's fat, and he smokes weed?

That doesn't add up.

I lose 6# with a decent bowel movement.

~41k posts over 12 years on CZ, and this poop thing is officially my most-liked post ever with 35 and counting. Great work, everybody.

Let's see if we can squeeze out a few more, just for the fun of it.

But we could have had Jared Goff if only we had added 5 draft picks to that 4th Overall in a trade!!!

Or we could've had <insert impactless defensive player> and...we'd still be the same on defense today.

Some people just don't understand the total picture. It's why he's a fan posting on a message board with a Lion King avatar.

Sorry. I visit Rotoworld. They had a blurb on it. I came here to see how he Zone was taking it and was surprised it wasn't posted. So I posted it.

I hope to hell Zeke is everything people are claiming he is. I'd have never picked him to find out. Those aren't mutually exclusive.

When they don't like the message, they often shoot the messenger. I always appreciate fellow fans sharing information. Whether or not it's something I want to hear. Thanks.

Poop is a naturally funny subject.

Where exactly did I claim Zeke wouldn't be excellent in this offense?

I have said the exact opposite before, now and will in the future.

I am of the belief that RBs are the most injured, have the shortest shelf life and almost never deserve a 2nd contract. That's why I didn't want Zeke. You will NEVER find me having said he won't be good. In fact if my argument is that we could have a great rushing attack with most any NFL running back...why then would you stupidly assume I think Zeke would struggle?

What you are saying makes you sound like a crazy person. It makes you sound like someone who doesn't understand the game of football. It makes you sound like someone who has no problem being the emperor with no cloths of the zone.

Stand by my feelings? How about you get a clue and use reason more and your 'feelings' less.

I hope he gains another 15 lbs. The way he ran last night was impressive to say the least.
