Tony Pollard should play more

[MarionBarberThe4th]

Just get him on the field. Get creative. He creates space and changes how the defense plays us. He can play with zeke both are capable receivers

Paid a lot of money for Zeke, so they will ride him until the wheels fall off, which should be pretty soon. Then Pollard will get his chance, if he is still on the team. Heck, they are still starting Witten in front of Jarwin.

 

[Tabascocat]

He probably doesn’t see the field because he drinks Pepsi instead of coke. Kind of like how Lewis has arms that are half an inch too short.

 

[JayFord]

Youre only gonna frustrate yourselves

 

[CWR]

I complain out that almost every game, especially when Zeke isn't looking great.

lol get creative

Thats Garrett and his coaching staff’s forte.

 

[mrmojo]

They were giving Pollard a series earlier in the season to spell Zeke I believe, but not anymore. This team is allergic to change.

 

[Tangle_Foot]

The staff living in the past and the front office wanting to justify Zeke's contract will make things difficult as far as Pollard getting more playing time. When Garrett was asked about playing Jarwin more all he could talk about was what Witten had done for the Cowboys.

They seem to think going with another player in a given situation is disrespectful and tarnishes that players Legacy. It's a what-have-you-done-for-me-lately league which means your snaps could be cut in the second half if you're not productive in the first. Winning not feelings is the objective.

 

[The Fonz]

Jerry won't allow it

 

[TheSkaven]

I was screaming this the entire game. I know it's sacrilegious to compare Zeke to Pollard around these parts, but can we at least agree that Pollard has more speed? I would have loved to seen what he might have done in the game.

I think it's a TD if the pass is to him on fourth and goal.

Zeke looked quicker in the Eagles game.
- Pollard played more snaps in that game than most others.
- Zeke played less snaps in that game than most others.

They have to give Pollard some normal inside runs because defenses play for outside runs or screens when he is in the game.

I'd love to see him and Zeke in the back-field together....and used more in the slot.
Too talented NOT to be on the field.

They ran them together once last week and Pollard dropped the pass. You know that's the kiss of death with Garrett.

I don't get why they can't use Pollard creatively. If you want Elliott to be the 90s carry the load guy, fine, but get Pollard in on some passing plays. Where were the screens and maybe some designed plays to shovel pass or use in a WR jet sweep to Pollard?

 

[Zman5]

Pollard, Lewis , Jarwin and Joe Thomas should all get more snaps.

 

[nightrain]

It would help Zeke to give Pollard 10 touches a game. Putting the kid in there on an obvious running down and lining him up to get mauled is just another example of the idiots on the sidelines calling the game.

 

[remdak]

All the Cowboys did was talk about how much talent he had and now they never use him. They always get these shiny new toys and never use them.
