Running Game vs The Skins

[Thomas82]

The Commanders are ranked 4th in the NFL against the run. We are the No. 2 rushing team in the NFL. How well do you think we can do running the ball against them this week?

They are the Commanders. Rod smith will probably have a hundred yards in addition to Zeke’s 100

It would be nice to see a repeat performance from Zeke of last year's game at their place.

FEED.
THE.
BEAST.

don't shrink...run it.

 

[Proximo]

If we can pass effectively right out of the gate, I think we’ll run even more effectively on them all day.

Stopping McCafferey was impressive. Other than that.....

Att Yds Y/A TD
Jordan Wilkins 10 61 6.10
Mark Ingram 16 53 3.31
Aaron Jones 6 42 7.00
David Johnson 9 37 4.11
Marlon Mack 10 34 3.40
Jamaal Williams 5 29 5.80
Alvin Kamara 6 24 4.00
Christian McCa 8 20 2.50

Cowboys will expose their run defense.

Go Cowboys. Hate the 'skins.

I don’t care if we go 1-15, just beat those Evil Commanders....

That's exactly how it went down in 1989.

I’m glad u get it fan...

 

[Hardline]

Zeke will grid out yardage all game long and get his 100 plus.
I want to see some huge chunk yardage runs in this game.
I think he will get a touchdown on a screen also.

The Cowboys haven’t lost in Wash DC since 2012. Like all division games it should be a battle. I do think the skins make it hard on the running game, so we must be able to have some success in the passing game.

 

[John813]

Anyone who has watched them know how well their young 3 linemen are doing?
I know Settle made some noise in PS, but I haven't watched one snap of theirs yet.

I think we will do well with our running game. We have to because that is who our O is. It might not be pretty, but it needs to be effective.

I've only caught 1 game of theirs so far. Why are everybody's rush attempts so low?

Go Hogeboom. Hope I spelled that right.

Every time we get a big chunk of yardages in the run game it gets called back for holding

The only holding call that I can see against the Boys in the last game was Swaim in the 3rd quarter. 1 call of that nature in 4 quarters is pretty good if you ask me. Of course I could be wrong about the penalty. Not 100% sure. 98% is about as good as it gets.

 

[Gridiron Man]

My first thought is, how many dominant rushing attacks have they faced?

 

[Praxit]

If Dak gets success on his feet, so will zeke. Of course OL needs key blocks to make it happen. ...and some Luck always helps. Like those Dak fumbles coming right back to him. ..
