Twitter: Zeke named NFC Offensive Player of the Week

[Proof]

Yes I agree that while MB3, and Murray were very good RBs here neither one is one Zeke's level the long TDs Zeke scored on like the 60 yd TD against Cincy, and the 83yd screen TD against the Steelers both Barber, and Murray would've been caught from behind granted they were both short to medium yardage guys and what I mean by that is from 10 to 40 yds both Barber, and Murray were great but from 40yds or greater they both were average imo Zeke is the total package when it comes to gaining yards from short, medium, and long range happy to have this dynamic player on our team.

I prefer zeke to Demarco but he's got two tds for 67 and 75 this year and a 71 yarder in preseason.

That was obvious choice. He had a monster game. Totally sick game

Who? You mean that flash in the pan from Arizona?

I hope that is sarcasm. He has been playing on par with Zeke not his fault he has the third coming of "bledsoe" at qb

4.47 at the combine but if they timed players in pads he would likely be the fastest. Pads slow some players down more than others.

I've really never understood why they don't make them run the 40 in pads and on a field. If you want a true measure of their ability as a football player then put them in football conditions.

Yes he does and Tennessee has a pretty good oline as well not as good as the Cowboys oline but good not taking anything away from Murray he's a good all around back but as you mentioned Zeke is better he would break for a long TD every once in awhile and he did have that 91yd TD here in his rookie season for his team record breaking 253yds against the Rams in 2011 interestingly both he and Zeke are #1 and #2 in rushing yards respectively.

The narrative on Demarco about his long-range speed and ability has always been warped by him being caught on a few plays where the defender either had the angle or Murray made a bad decision on a cut or to run over a defender instead of around him.

It's a good thing Elliott has his 83-yard reception or some might already be questioning his ability to go the distance.

But many people around here were naming him as the #1 back in the league several weeks ago!

Now I don't know about flash in the pan, but I also don't know if he's the best in the league...

It's just arguable. He's in the running. Dude is hyper productive without near the same line. He's a monster

Can't argue with that.

Can't argue with that.

Still prefer zeke tho for the record. I'm just a habitual devils advocate

Without people playing the role of devil's advocate, this forum (and internet discussions in general) would be boring!
