Skip Bayless: "Ezekiel Elliott is better than Emmitt Smith."

[Thomas82]

On his FS1 Undisputed show with Shannon Sharpe, those exact words came out of Skip Bayless' mouth. Here is the entire podcast from yesterday. The Zeke segment starts at 12:32. Skip made his comparison of both players around the 18:00 mark. Here it is:

Nope. Go back and look at early ES.

IKR.....people forget how good Emmitt was when he was young.

 

[iamliko22]

he will say anything for views....

Zeke gotta put in more work. I don’t care if he’s bigger and faster

Give Zeke another ten seasons and then we will make those kind of comparisons.

Clickbait.

Yes, it's way too early for that.

 

[lukin2006]

No ...

 

[Bullflop]

Some lowlifes will do anything for attention. In this instance, I've got to say it's akin to blasphemy!

This crap from one who once suggested that Troy Aikman was a homo!

(. . . not that there's anything wrong with that . . .)

 

[Dylan88Wilson]

He’s right about Zeke being bigger, stronger, faster and more talented than Emmitt was. It’s not that controversial to say he’s better, or at least it shouldn’t be. Skip wasn’t comparing their careers, he was comparing their skill sets. My only problem is he doesn’t acknowledge this argument in the LeBron/Jordan debate.

Skip Bayless is a jackass

 

[Captain-Crash]

better at what?

I don't remember Emmitt missing games because he was a dumb azz doing stupid things..

Emmitt never had a commissioner that had it out for him.

Because he wasn't doing stupid things.

Yeah,I’d agree with Skip and Sharpe on their talking points about backs. Zeke is a bigger,faster,more powerful and explosive athlete who could easily break season and game yard records given the touches. But he’s not going to have the longevity,nor is his character the same. Zeke plays offense like a defensive player. He’s a violent runner,who looks to run through people. One thing they didn’t bring up though about the two I wish they had...Emmitt Smith to this day is the best text book blitz blocker I’ve ever seen at RB. No one ever mentions that enough...Madden used to though.

 

[Jeffkills]

Nope......

Can’t catch 22!
