Just saw the sounds from the sidelines yt video. Seeing him in another uniform sux, I didn't like it almost as much as I didn't like seeing Emmitt and Allen in different uniforms. Elliot like Emmitt left it all on the field for this team. Too bad Elliot didn't have Emmitt work ethic in the offseason. If only he had put in the extra work, he'd probably still be a cowboy.

He did it to himself.

Had to cash grab...this is the result.

It does. I didn't think it would. I think it's kind of messed up to claim Zeke's career was cut short because of his "work ethic". Is that what happened to Todd Gurley? Is that what's happening with Kamara and Henry? C cowboys ran him into the ground. It happens.

Speak for yourself. Its a dream come true for some of us. A dream some 4 or 5 years in the making.

Watching him stumble into the center of the line for 2 or 3 yardrs and holding back someone elses offense is icing on the cake.

And yes too bad Zeke didnt have Emmitts heart and work ethic. Or his skills as a RB.

Zeke and Emmitt were both durable and they had great Olines early in their career. The similarities end there.

I think there is a combination of things that cut Zeke's career short -Work ethic would be one but the main one was that Zeke would seek out contact rather than trying to avoid it. Someone said he did it to himself by holding out. Well if he did that to himself, they he did really well for himself because he got his money while the getting was good - the market collapsed after Zeke and Gurley got there deals. He would have to play 3 more years at a high level to get what he got in todays market.

I always felt sorry for what Goodell did to Zeke. He cost him millions in endorsement deals.

It was the accusations though that did him in right? He missed out on a lot of endorsement deals thats for sure.

I just felt like the RB shelf life is already short. Yeah guys like Fred Taylor, Gore and AP lasted awhile but that does not seem to be the face and we're seeing it now with guys like Cook, Kamara and Henry. Kamara is a workout BEAST.
