He got paid and no longer has the desire to perform at a top level. That's what happened. Dak next season will be the same way.

Things will change the closer he gets to his next contract renewal.
He is just an old, limited back.

and he’s doing it at 3.4 yards a clip. that is ABYSMAL.

i think i might hate this team :(

To make it worse Jerry reworked his contact last offseason making it impossible to cut him until 2023 cap wise.
Brilliant !!!

Zeke is not featured and I know you love Moore but he has been very predictable with his run game right up the gut.

it’s zeke that is predictable. All he does is dive inside. Backs get the ball and they go wherever the holes are.

pollard, lamb both get Carrie’s and they bounce outside. Some more designed for it.

If you wanna RUN you need the defense to fear the long ball.
Goes a long way in the scheme of things.
Hit me up when we have one.......:rolleyes:

Then your issue should be with Jerry Jones for not having this "burner" you desire. Cooper was never a burner so getting on him for not being DeSean Jackson is peculiar.

It is the lifecyle of a RB.

The wear and tear is real...especially when you play physically like Zeke does because he doesn't make guys miss.

That is what makes Emmitt so untouchable. I cant imagine his record is broken in my lifetime. It's amazing how he kept chugging along.

I feel bad for the guy. I do not know what happened to him since 2018. That was the last year I remember him running well. If I was playing a simulation and running the ball out of the I Form, Zeke is lead blocking for Pollard.

Barkley for the Giants as well. That is not the same player that came out of college. I think injuries caught up to him.

What happened to Zeke since 2018? 2 words: Kellen Moore. Don't get me wrong, there are some things Zeke could have done better, but IMO, Moore taking over as OC in 2019 was the worst thing for him.

Lamb has -2 rushing yards the last 3 games. Moore’s run game has become almost all right up the gut. You can blame it all on Zeke but Zeke is not being featured in this offense. Moore isn’t featuring any rb.

All Zeke can do is run up the gut so it appears thats where they are all. What, are you going to run Zeke outside? LOL Good luck with that. Holes are outside, he just cant get there.

Zeke is featured. That is a fact.

The positive. Only 6 backs have more yards

The negative. Derrick Henry has more rushing yards in 8 less games and still has more yards than Zeke. But they also have equivalent carries
During this Dak slump, Zeke has only had +14 carries 1 time and that total was 16, and in 4 of those games, he has had 9 carries.

You ain't beating no NFL team with 9 carries from you so called franchise RB. Unless that team has no or marginal QBs.

Who is calling the plays?

Zeke lost the burst a couple of years ago. You will see it twice a year when he’s fired up but on a consistent basis he doesn’t have it. He’s a great blocker and a nice WR out of the backfield but they rode him hard for 3 years and it caught up quick. Reminds me of myself with my kids…without getting hit..one day I was chasing them around with no issue and now I feel a tight lower back or a groin strain.

Texas-- ha ha ha ....that is funny...but not laughing at lower back pain or groin strains
