Worried about Zeke

[MRV52]

At this point, I don't care if he ever plays again for this team. I would have let him sit the year.

1:30 mark

Gallup says he was on the sideline and asked Dak what happened . . . Dak said "He was off target". . . Touchdown was a broken play (as usual. . . because Dak can't execute designed plays)

Point blank end of discussion . . . Miscommunication narrative was implied by announcer to somehow justify the terrible throw

Ok so stop being so thick headed. . . Your having me make a huge deal out of it which is making me appear as if I hate him.

I am routing for him because he's the QB of the Cowboys . . . But he is what he is a QB with terrible accuracy

What you never seen a quarterback off Target before. The kid is a winner when it matters most he's brilliant that's all I care about

 

[Whirlwin]

What does that even mean? What because its preseason, does that mean Dak is going put of his way to be in accurate

I am confused

I know you're confused. It's a fourth-quarter game and what does he do in the fourth quarter. Win

 

[Cmac]

Jerry has been his own demise for years. It's a shame all the blame is going to be on Zeke for JG mediocrity, any Dak regression, etc.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I read the money part was done. Down to structure.

Patrick Walker of CBS Sports

That's good. Hopefully, all will be said and done soon then.

 

[Romo_To_Dez]

If he doesn't sign somewhere within the next 2 or 3 days,then I don't see him playing in week 1. I think that this team is good enough to go 2-1 or 3-0 without him. So we'll see.

 

[jblaze2004]

Zeke should take less money from the cowboys and then 3 days later the team can announce is the official sponsor of a start up company Zeke owns selling feed me spoons.

That would be Brilliant. They sell it in dallas stadium. Imagine when zeke makes a big run or scores the camera pans the crowd snd see everyone with a big wooden spoon, doing the feed me lmao

 

[nightrain]

Two different situations. Apparently Dallas feels Zeke is a much bigger difference maker than the Chargers believe Gordon to be. I can't disagree. Gordon won't be missed, can we say that about Zeke? Ask Jerry. He's the one that has to decide whether or not he wants to repeat the early 90s or not.

Yes, they are two completely different situations. There was no salary cap back in the 90s.
Gordon and Zeke may carry different values to their respective teams, but I don't believe any team can afford to pay a RB north of $10M/year in today's NFL.

 

[DFWJC]

At this point, I don't care if it's $14M, $15M, $16M, $17M... hell even $20M AAV... let's win the goddang Super Bowl this year and any cap hell in the future won't matter!

If it GUARANTEED we'd win the whole thing, Jerry would pay the guy 25 mil per year and not blink.
But we all know that's impossible

He’s ok. Daverage.

 

[Supercowboy1986]

There’s speculation EE is broke or close to it. Most likely why he is holding out now and how it makes no sense with 2 years left on current contract.

Second hand source tho, wife’s friend is a current cowboys cheerleader and over heard it at the gym in the star

 

[Vinnie2u]

I want to see what this team can do without Zeke. How good Dak is without Zeke. Can Pollard carry the load. Jerry don’t cave in.

 

[Altestic]

He’s ok. Daverage.

agree. I don't think he's as bad as say, a Winston or Mariota or Tyrod Taylor, but I'd name close to 20 names before Prescott if I was starting a team that needed to win a SB in the current year with a gun to my head.

I guess one of those names just retired so it slightly helps his case.

That won't be the case when we are actually in cap hell and fans are furious..

 

[Sarge]

You care more about the Super Bowl than the players do.

The sooner you accept that, the better off you'll be.

BS

I have to agree with you !

 

[DallasEast]

No doubt, a significant number of players care about getting paid. Some many even believe they will be 'overpaid' if successful.

However, many of the same players have dreamed of reaching the NFL and winning Super Bowls much of their young lives. The sheer fact that the desire to get money they will likely never see again in the rest of their life beyond football does not offset their vision of professional immortality.

The anguish and frustration shared by non players in relation to many players do not compare at all. It does not mean the fans' emotions are inconsequential. Far from it. It is simply a matter of differentiating between living it and watching it from the outside in.

 

[Altestic]

That won't be the case when we are actually in cap hell and fans are furious..

if they win a Super Bowl it doesn't matter if they go 0-16 the next five years, they will have WON IT ALL.

if they don't, they can always tear it up, eat all the dead money in one year and rebuild

 

[darthseinfeld]

Its weird that I read your title and didnt know if you were worried as a Cowboys or an Eagles fan

There's speculation the old man is getting worried/nervous/concerned that the "Secret Sauce" bottle is dry.
