Zeke and Pollard

[1972COWBOY]

No

Not sure if sarcasm but Pollard didn't do anything today that makes him the starter when zeke is healthy.

At least Pollard isn't showing off by pulling up a girls **** on national TV while drunk.

I agree, not a great decision. But that false equivalence doesn't make Pollard a better player.

Zeke is a gross overspend given Pollard's versatility at this point.

I think Zeke is done here after next season.

12 carries for 60 yrs and 2 TD we have Jim brown everyone!!

We have a guy better than Zeke atleast

 

[Aviano90]

We have a guy better than Zeke atleast

Yeah. We have back up on the same team outperforming what is supposed to be the best RB in the league. The supposed best RB in the league gets the benefit of excuse after excuse but the back up outperforming him ridiculed.

 

[Aftershock]

We’re stuck with Zeke right? No way any other team is gonna trade for that hefty contract especially now that the league isn’t rb focused and you can get solid rb play through the draft and cheap contracts

Zeke has been a great mentor and tutor for Pollard!!!
Thank you Zeke!!!

Sarcasm?

The ball was thrown to Pollard today more than to any other receiver. This was done to offset the lack of a running game. Smart moves by Kellen Moore. But Pollard did make the great run for a td. I'm sure Zeke took note of pollard's phenomenal, perfunctory, performance.

My bad, it wasn't false equivalency, it was a straw man argument.

 

[StuckMojo]

I think they could be an unbelievable combo if Moire could scheme it correctly

 

[ItzKelz]

Zeke > Pollard

Pollard > Zeke

 

[Aviano90]

We knew Zeke’s contract hamstrung the team. Now it is becoming more clear that he is a liability just being on the field at any price. Maybe today will motivate the lazy bum to get in shape and take advantage of his ability instead of trying to skate by.

 

[exciter]

The great Zeke Idiot is finally exposed for the turd that he is.

And anyone that supported Zeke, his contract, or continue to defend him.

Tony Pollard is just better............END OF STORY!!!!!

LOL! Yup! And the Germans were the good guys during WWII!

 

[armadillooutlaw]

Contract aside, Zeke's still a good, tough back between the tackles, better pure runner, getting dirty yards, ect, but Pollard needs a bigger chunk of the touches and needs to be schemed for in the passing game/open space in general - he brings chunk play ability that Zeke hasn't had since 2018...
As far as the contract, I would at least consider all options... Zeke's definitely significantly overpaid.

WWII is right around the last time that Zeke was a good RB. My how the mighty have fallen.

Zeke is an average back at best. He's plodding between the tackles because thats all he can do and everyone knows it. Definitely NOT a better pure runner. Pollard is defines a more pure runner. Zeke is nothing more than putting his head down and slamming into the line with poor visions and quickness.

 

[bratch59]

Didn’t fumbled. Had runs longer that 3 yards. Oh and scored.. twice

And didnt tap out

The dez equivalence which is not a false equivalence. Apples to apples.

Thank you Zeke!!!

Both are good, however if you factor in salary
Pollard is the better value

 

[exciter]

Lol

Lol! He ran for 1357 and a 4.5 average just last season. He was running over 4ypc before Dak got hurt. Teams are still game planning to stop him and stacking 8 in the box to do so. Maybe you need to see the Doc for dementia....
