Zeke needs 258 yards for record (aka Finding Dickerson 2)

[jazzcat22]

can Zeke get 258 yards in the next 2 games to break Dickerson's rookie rushing record.
Man I would love to see him get this.
A win and staying healthy and rested is more important. But it would be great to have him get the record.

Off the top of my head I think it's 258 any way.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

He'd need one huge game, like a 200 yard outing.

We beat the Lions, the chance of Zeke playing the entire Philly game with the #1 seed and HFA wrapped up already is extremely doubtful. May just see him in the 1st half, then he'll be sat along with many of the starters.

 

[Avery]

I'd rather we take care of business with DET and give him rest against PHI.

Not popular, but I'd hate for him to injure himself and derail our postseason.

 

[Fizziksman]

all those 20+ runs called back because of BS penalties....

 

[jazzcat22]

Of all is wrapped up, would you really want our starters resting for 3 weeks...I don't....

Yes, the magic number is 258.

If Linehan would've run him like he should've tonight, Zeke would be about 80 yards away.

 

[Gabe]

Would like to see him get the record... But I agree with others, not at the expense of risking injury and wearing him out.

 

[Tabascocat]

Won't happen unless the last game means something. Even if it doesn't, Zeke won't get many touches and probably take the 2nd half off. He needs 180 vs Detroit.....

 

[TRUTH87]

yea lets just get the W vs Lions and call it an end to zekes regular season carries. maybe one half vs eagles

 

[viman96]

IMO find a way to beat the Lions and let McFadden and Morris carry the rock against Philly

That's way too much rest, and this team already doesn't do well with extra rest to begin with.

 

[BAT]

He'd need one huge game, like a 200 yard outing.

Would have had that easily tonight if Linehan doesn't forget about him most of 2nd and 3rd.

 

[Jstopper]

He'd need one huge game, like a 200 yard outing.

All he needs is 128 a game.

 

[QuikZ06]

Agreed, and they do it in every game. Offense gets on a roll then Zeke is out for long stretches. I don't understand having one of your biggest weapons off the field for so long. I understand he needs rest, but it's a momentum killer when he's off the field.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

Yes, but I'm thinking he doesn't play the entire Philly game.

 

[LocimusPrime]

What if he ended up 1 yd shy with 5 mins to go in the last game and coach benched him

He would have easily had a 200-yard game tonight if they didn't forget about him for a long stretch.

He needs to have a monster half then against Philly
