When does Zeke light it up?

[Big_D]

Prime time division home game. Now’s the time to step up! I was on board. Lost weight, putting in the extra time, working on speed. Etc etc that has to reveal itself at some point. No better time than the present!

Agreed. One way to shut up the haters is to go out and put up big numbers in a crucial game.

far as I’m concerned , He’s played his best football this season. He’s turned into an all Around football player. Hope it continues go Elliott

The hate definitely builds up a little more if he doesn’t

Think his burst is gone, hope he proves me wrong tonight but I don't like the way it is trending. Rather continue to see what Pollard can bring to this O.

Time to unleash....

Well, Zeke is traditionally a bit of a slow starter who gets better as the season goes on.

he also usually plays well against the eagles.

I certainly would love to watch him run it down their throats tonight. We shall see.

 

[Kareemovweet]

Probably around 10:15 pm, just before he turns the lights out and a funny movie on.....

 

[superonyx]

Not sure I want Zeke lighting it up.

What is the definition of "lighting it up"? Splash plays of long runs and long TDs? Putting up 100yd rushing games? A certain amount of total yards?

I ask because I don't know where the goalposts are and if they will be moved to match an agenda?

Probably would have had 120 yards last week if we ran him more

Not going to happen in McCarthys offense.

Usually--not always, but usually--preseason happy-talk is meaningless and you'll make better projections about in-season performance by ignoring it.

That said, 2109 Zeke was a fine RB, even without the burst he used to have, and if he's the guy we saw then and last week, I won't complain.

 

[Tabascocat]

I like the way he is being used. Get the dirty, tough yards…. make key blocks and let Pollard come in to make splash plays.

This is a longer season, keep them well rested for January.

I’d like to see him put up around 23 carries 140 yards 2 TDs, but will settle for about a 5 ypc average on ~15 carries and a score. No turnovers. Supplement the rushing attack with a few catches.

..might be tonight. It has all the precepts for launching state.

where are the goal posts now?

As long as we’re not having a play from behind and throw the ball all night to stay in the game he has a chance to have a big game. The team may decide to continue splitting carries between him and Pollard which will keep his numbers down. If he’s running the ball well early the team will keep feeding him. We’re going to go with whatever is working.

Pollard has earned the right to split touches with Zeke. I expect Zeke to get the tough yards and protect Dak while Pollard has the splash "burst" plays
