To me this RB "tandem" approach is monumental; here is why, you rogues

Good men and bee keepers from Ottawa,

when Jerry announced the team will be using a RB "tandem" me thoughts turned optimistic. Optimistic despite knowing how fragile Zeke and Dak, his fellow associate in mediocrity, are.
But Pollard being an equal partner? It could not hurt!

But this goes beyond implementing a 2-RB attack.

It is a clear and shrill signal to Zeke that "tandem" might be a precursor to "featured RB" whose name is not Zeke.

Jerry is complacent, yet watch him lower the boom after 3 or so 50-yard games by Zeke in 2022.

Do you ruffians agree this further steers us to holding "stars" more accountable and particularly Zeke?

I couldn’t get pass the one bee keepers fupa…….but to answer the question, I don’t see any scintilla of increased accountability happening. Status quo to be expected

I like to see more formations with both in the game, start in the back field and then swing one of them out. pollard can catch and run and so can zeke. use a 2WR, 1 TE formation for additional blocking and there is all kinds of mismatches there. specially if you have Brown in there, who can block really well. but can Moore pull a McVay and utilize them to create mismatches.

MM before game 6: "hmm, going with Zeke didn't work, let's try Pollard more"

Jerry: "shut the f up and let the grown ups do the coaching. Here's your playbook and now get outta here." winks to KM. "Atta boy."

Booger likes to announce a lot because he loves the sound of his own voice, make that one.

My question isn't about either RB because I think both are good. My question is how is the run blocking going to hold up if they have to run the ball?

There is no scenario I can imagine where Moore runs the ball more than he passes it. The blocking will never be good enough because the schemes are either horribly flawed or simply ill-suited for our personnel. I will leave it to your imagination which. As for Jerry, we have to just accept his part in all of this. He's the carnival barker.. Half of what he says is BS meant to sell tickets and put eyes on the telly. And of course.. $$$ in his bank account.

You believe Zeke is as good as Pollard?
Nurse! Nurse! Can you take me mate's temperature?

Yeah I'm not a Moore fan in any type of way.

It's put up or shut up time for him IMO.

I do like Dallas to win tomorrow, but I'm not as confident about the rest of the season, mostly due to him.

The guy isn't qualified and never was. It was all about Jerry having control and input. That really needs to end already.

I can't begin to explain how much I want to be wrong about this, so I don't typically moan about it....but yeah I think this offense struggles for most of the season, which is shameful because this defense is about ready to roll.
