You’re joking, right? Dowdle gained 100+ against the 20th, 31st, and 32nd ranked defenses against the run. Two of the teams are literally the worst D’s in the league against the run, and the Bengals are terrible as well. To better illustrate why he’s not the guy, he couldn’t run the ball a lick when we had a better O-line earlier in the year, and he has only been successful against the very worst run defenses. I’d LOVE to be wrong and see him bang the yards out against decent teams, but he never has, not even once. I just don’t think something clicks in an RBs game 13 games into a season, but maybe I’m wrong. I just don’t think I am.
wrong ran this well against Pittsburgh., if you actually watch the games and do anything besides being a casual fan you know he just simply wasn't being used he was only given 8 carries a game the first eight games of the year up until that Pittsburgh game and then after that iced by his own coach until he figured out that he can run the damn football you just have to hand him the damn football should I say damn football if you don't get carries you can't produce you act like he didn't produce I mean what were you watching he just wasn't being given the opportunity because our coats sucked...

And by the way most of you that love Tony pollard you want to get into how numbers can be affected by carries? how about just judging Tony over there with the Titans had at least five games under 50 yards this year, I believe one was 15 yards total and another 14 yards total for game!! and he was HEALTHY!!! he's only had like two games over 100 yards all damn year and he makes $8 million lmao

tony- 3 years 24 mil deal
2309824.3539

Rico- 1.25 Mil deal ends this year
1778805.0133

who's the better deal I would take Rico imagine if he would just give it another 20 or 30 carries over the entire year he'd be out playing Tony Pollard and we're talking about the Cowboys having a bad year he's a bright spot stop putting him down.
