Zeke not looking worthy of the 4th overall pick **merged**

[Ultra Warrior]

Morris should have been mixed in more than he was. Zeke did decent but those fumbles could have been very costly. It's only 1 game, so I expect him to get better at holding onto the ball as the season progresses.

 

[btcutter]

Lets just pretend we drafted Dak 4th overall and Elliott in the compensatory 4th round.

That's one hell of a draft !

 

[erod]

The fact you think a single player is down 21-0 is pretty telling of your capacity.

The fact you didn't get the point is what's telling.

 

[AmericanCowboy]

Zeke needs to not start next week. I don't care how talented he is, both fumbles were from a lack of focus.

Sit him down, Let Morris start, and then teach Zeke the importance of protecting the football.

It absolutely should be like that. I am certain that if Garrett did this he would have way more respect from his players than he does now. Right now Zeke is a detriment to the team.

Sit him down and have the running back split be 50-50 next game.

 

[JPostSam]

This was a valid criticism early on in Emmitt's career and Peterson's. Difference being, they did enough good to cancel out their fumbling.

fumbles suck.

i just have a feeling that zeke will provide lots of good.

Not looking worthy of the 4th overall pick.

Is he looking like a 4th round RB? Then pretend Dak was the 4th pick....

Jaylon Ramsey is getting destroyed

You're right, your uniformed drivel has always been a mystery to me and others.

Wait, are you the same guy that claims Romo is on PEDs?

 

[erod]

Zeke fumbled once in college. Once.

I'm not worried. He looked good today.

 

[jwitten82]

He hasnt looked anything special for being 4th overall

 

[DallasDomination]

I see all the potential with his explosion and power but his vision has been absolutely terrible.

Let's call it. He's putting so much pressure on himself he's not playing how he should.

This is a big boy league. If you're not ready then Morris gets the start. If he doesn't the coaches are not doing their job.

Morris had 7 yards on 5 carries

 

[TheHerd]

He's putting too much pressure on himself. He needs to just relax and be himself. But the coaches need to recognize Morris can take the pressure off while Zeke figures it out. The caird need to be more even, and let Zeke work his way in. 4th pick or not, he's a rookie.

 

[Cowboys22]

When I finally got in front of a tv, I saw a RB with nowhere to go most of the time. I'm not really sure who it is that doesn't look good. The coaches, the OL, or Zeke.

 

[Gaede]

I expected him to dominate day 1. That's the appeal of taking a RB rd 1. Immediate impact.

He needs to play better. He looks slow and unsure.

The TDs are good though. He's doing that well.

Zeke fumbled the ball twice. Has Morris had a shot to show anything?

Preseason Morris looked good. So yes give him a chance.

 

[Vinnie2u]

I wonder what we could get for him in a trade.

Joey Bosa

 

[Risen Star]

I'm willing to fist fight anyone who says Zeke isn't the best RB in the league.

Anytime. Anywhere. My mom will drive me.

 

[DTown214]

You've got extreme illogical prejudgment... and then there's this.

Preseason Elliott looked good. He gashed the Seahawks first team defense.

Morris had a nice runs last week, but he hasnt shown enough to bench a HB that improved on his week 1 performance.
