Would you rather have Elliott, or Aaron Jones GB rb?

[Cebrin]

Is this really a question?

 

[Eightneight]

I'd rather have an offensive scheme that utilizes elliot in the same way the Packers utilize adams.

 

[QuincyCarterEra]

Zeke does not have as much passing yards as some. Those are mostly chunk yards that add to your total. If Zeke's not elite, there are no elite RBs in the NFL. Did you do a check on all RBs considered elite throughout the history of the NFL? I guarantee their numbers don't meet your lofty criteria.

If there are better RBs in the league than Zeke(which any non-homer would agree), then that leaves the possibility of there being elite RBs. It's simple.

I won't delete my post. I have no reason to do so. You talking down to people shows that you really aren't confident in your stance.

Me destroying your stance within 5 mins using facts actually shows how confident I am.

You not being able to reply with anything of note really highlights your stance. Unfortunately for you.

 

[Proof]

Well jones has a new hc, and in those 2 games he did really well , helped to win 2 games, so I would think he now has the
coaches looking at more ways to utilize him and more often.
I am curious to see how he does the rest of the season.

I never said jones was the better player , or the more durable player, or was elite, I just asked which one would you want right now.
Many seem to be obsessed with zeke, and blind to his flaws, and in awe of things like rushing champ, which is really a
meaningless title.

Lol.

Yeah, I mean, this one isn't even close.

 

[bsbellomy]

Wow, man do we suck. GB found the next Walter Payton for peanuts and we are stuck with a scrub like Zeke. I think I'll just burn all my Cowboy gear.

I swear, some of you people are pathetic.

Man you started off great but really petered out at the end there.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

I defer my opinion to @Toruk_Makto and @aria

The answer is obvious. Whoever is cheaper.

 

[Bullflop]

Actually, I'd like to have 'em both! One for power running and the other for speedy, long gainers!

 

[ConstantReboot]

GB also has Rodgers at QB and he is the focus of other team’s defense!

Green Bay also isn't as predictable as our offense. They spread it out and have man in motion almost all the time. Sure Rogers plays a big part of their offense. But they spread their offense out and throw to their backs. While we run Zeke up the gut on every 1st down.

If Rogers was playing for the Cowboys what would Garrett do? Probably run it up the middle on 1st downs as well.

 

[Chrispierce]

I don’t know his overall attributes but from small samples.. he runs and catches great. Was doing some things similar to Zeke I liked seeing,strong power runs and finishes well. Very big play capability ...huge threat once around corner. But to be Dallas franchise back,it’s 4 down all purpose stuff within the 1-4yd area code. Jones has very little carries per year to show me he could handle that 300 workload pounding.. But I absolutely love this kids game!! He’s fun to watch...really impressed.

 

[Hoofbite]

Let's just broaden it a bit. I'd like to have all the best players signed to lifelong rookie contracts.

 

[Hot_Toddy]

Jones was a 5th round pick so packers are paying him peanuts, and of course our guy now gets
15 mil a year lol.
This guy Jones is impressive, In KC game last nite he was the difference, with 2 catches out of backfield
that he turned into long td runs.
Nobody could catch him.
As we saw against us, he can run thru the line and do the tough running too.
On top of that from what they said last nite , he is also a RKG type guy , no trouble off field, and highly motivated to be the best he can be.
So I for one would rather have him over elliot and it isnt even close.
He is a game changer and capable of big plays.

This is just for fun, as we are stuck with the feed me ewok boy (with the nose rings )

Jones looks like a pretty decent back for them.

That being said. I take Zeke all day, every day.

Also, Zeke is the RKG, Take it from Moore, at the 12 minute mark of this vid.

Moore, "Zeke is a special player, completely unselfish and completely cares about the team". etc.

I agree with you completely but most fans are going to choose Elliott because they aren't burdened with paying his salary.

 

[JoeKing]

False choice. Which tandem would be better, Zeke/ Rodgers or Jones/ Prescott?

LOL, you don't like the question so you change it. The OP's question did not present a false choice despite your mind exploding when you read it. Your inability to accept the question as presented and then attempt to blame Dak for Zeke's pay being underwater compared to his pay is just sad for you. Zeke is being far over paid for doing things that other RBs, like Aaron Jones do better at a far more reasonable price. That is the point, so put that in your pipe and smoke it up. You shouldn't be allowed to twist a thread that is pointing out one thing into something else. It's not about Dak.

 

[JoeKing]

This is what I hate about these type of questions, when you look at some of the people that have more yards then zeke overall this year, they have more 30+ yard runs than zeke, yet he is keeping up in yards, because he is the BEST rb at getting dirty rough yards where other rb would fail, and not get any. If anyone truly feels like they would trade zeke for another rb because reasons like the lack of flashy long runs etc should be ashamed. He's made catches that our recievers have dropped themselves, when other rb's make hard runs, they compare them to ZEKE. He is the best at what he does, and does what others do just as well.

Another obvious point flies right over your oblivious head. It's not about Zeke's performance on the field. It's about what he contributes to the team versus his price tag compared to what other RBs contribute to their team versus their price tag. You aren't burdened with paying that price tag so you don't seem to care about this point. You'd rather just express how much of a Zeke fanboy you are. LOL

 

[superonyx]

I would rather have Tevin Coleman. He would have been cheaper to sign than Elliott.

Plus he has break away speed. Elliott has lost his breakaway speed.

His career year is only 800 yards. He only has 300 yards this season.
He is cheaper but not cheaper based on cost per production. He is making 4M this season. Zeke is on the books for 6.2M this season.

It’s not even close.

 

[superonyx]

I'll refer you to the Saints game. I lost track of how many 3rd and shorts Elliot couldn't convert. Say what you want about Aaron Jones, he looked like the better player when he took the field opposite Zeke.

This analysis only makes clear you either are trolling, bias, or really don’t understand football with any meaningful depth.

not trying to be rude. But these are the only choices. Not just for you but for anyone making Jones statements vs Zeke.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Zeke is a better overall back, but give me Jones for 500k per year and a pro bowl DT over Zeke.

I mean we would all take that. But that’s not really realistic.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Guys seriously underrate other facets of Zeke’s game. His blocking alone is why I take him over any back in this league. And you guys will see that at some point. People keep getting caught up in the 15 million that he’s getting paid as if it hurts us. Go see how much money we have invested in offensive line and get back to me.
