Tomorrow will tell us how Zekes season will go

When was the last time Zeke made a cut? It's almost always him running in a straight line. He's one of the more one dimensional runners in the league.
 
Nah.. I think the Eagles are going to commit heavily to stopping the run and that's going to make it hard for Zeke to get untracked. They've really only stopped him when the QB has been somebody like Nooch or Dalton. I think Rush fits in there between those two somewhere. The good thing is that with Rush at the helm Moore has mostly kept running the ball anyway even if it wasn't eating up large chunks of real estate. But I worry that if we get down a whole touchdown the flood gates will open and Moore will have Rush slingin it 50 times.
I think it’s only logical to go all in on stopping the run and forcing Rush to beat you
That’s what I’d do
But the rams tried and failed
And our defense can win games for us just like they did last week
 
Zeke hasn’t run for 100 yards since last October.

I’d bet an incredibly large amount of money he doesn’t run for 100+. Ain’t that dude anymore.
 
I don’t see him having a big game. Their defensive front is good and and they will be stacking the box daring Cooper to beat them.
 
An outlier play doesn’t tell the entire story.

We don’t win that game last week without Pollards big play.

Here is an idea.. Don’t put him in positions to block as much….

Instead of starting drives with Zeke start then with Pollard so Zeke can be on the field more on 3rd and long situations.

Simple fix to get our best runningback on the field more.
You were right the first time. Pollards a better runner....but better rb is questionable. Hes never been a 1 rb.
Best case is like you said....manage both with their best assets including both at once.
 
..if Zeke can get a big night. I mean get over 100 yds rushing.
That could benefit him in way of pyschic boost.
 
I don’t think Zeke has been right since the fumble season. He has fixed that problem but I think between having a horrible OL and thinking about covering up the ball he has lost some steps.
If he gets some consistent blocking and a decent game or two under him, I believe he will get some confidence back and can be productive.
I don’t think it will be tonight because the beagles are gonna stack the box and dare Rush to throw.
The more physical team wins tonight.
Old NFCE ball- smash mouth.
GO COWBOYS!!
 
I always like to get the ball at halftime.

Normally, I like this philosophy, and I'd probably do the same this game.

However, Philly is the team you want to jump on early and make em be pass happy.
 
Zeke always gets going against the birds. If he sucks against them, it’s over fir him. I expect 90-120 and 2 tds tomorrow.
You can't hide Cooper this week....Zeke could get 180 yds and 3TDs and Cowboys can still lose.
 
Zeke just has no juice. Why do we need to watch him tonight to know that? He’s been this way a few season now.

He’s never going to be what he was. He’s just a guy that can get you to 3rd and short.

It’s a big play league and Pollard is the guy that can win you football games.
