RBs become less productive when their body starts breaking down. As he tires out with a heavier work load, his speed and explosiveness will slow down and he would become very average. His college coaches knew this, the pro scouts knew this and the Cowboy’s coaching staff knows it. Pollard has a great game today. Good for him. This game was exceptional and it is not his normal performance. He has played in a lot of games while he has been in Dallas and he didn’t get these results or anything similar. You are getting too excited about his production today and it is effecting your common sense. We have seen RBs that was situational players in Dallas before. Barber and Felix Jones was great situational RBs and both of them became very average when they became full time starters.
I’m not too excited about today. I projected this a long time ago. Today is just what I predicted.
Being a “workhorse” is about 15 touches in modern football.
It’s all about explosive plays. Nobody cares if you’re a grinder anymore. You’ll just grind yourself to an L. It’s a big play league.
I’m not anti Zeke Either other than his contract is terrible but Pollard has lots of home runs in him and Zeke just gets base hits.
