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

[Fizziksman]

lol some you guys should really be horsewhipped.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

lol. 2 games total is all any rookie needs to confirm if he'll be good or not.

It took 0 games for people on this board to declare him a sure bet for ROY, to threaten 2,000 yards, et cetera.

 

[TheRomoSexual]

He had 83 yards and 4 yards a carry. I didn't see the game but it couldnt have been that bad

It wasn't. People who wanted Ramsey are just looking to complain, which is pretty sad

 

[Crad|e]

Zeke is scary. And not in a good way.

 

[IrishAnto]

Not looking worthy of the 4th overall pick.

Tough start no doubt.

Still let's give him a few games,

Yup, that's called being a fan.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Did you say that when he had the 21 yd run?

Lol, a 21-yard run?

Yeah, you only find those kinda gamebreaker RBs in the Top 5 of the draft.

 

[bayeslife]

He's getting adjusted to the offense I think he'll be fine

 

[4lifecowboy]

Missed the first half. All i seen was two fumbles. I rather he average 2.0 ypc than be turnover prone.

 

[Proof]

some good, some bad from zeke today. for the pick, and other needs would like to see more very very good.

 

[mattjames2010]

Did you say that when he had the 21 yd run?

Did you see him looking like Trent Richardson and missing a gaping hole early in the game? How about those fumbles? How about the lack of making people miss? How many tackles did he shed?

I won't call him a bust, but his two first games he's looked average. You get benched late in the game, you're average. Fumbles are the worst thing an RB can do.

 

[Ken]

Not worried. He showed a lot of improvement from week 1. The fumble was just a great play from Norman. I expect close to if not 100 yards next week from Zeke.

What about the other fumble?

 

[TheCount]

I haven't seen anything special from him yet, but I'm not willing to make a determination based on two games.

I've always been against spending a 4th on any RB, but I am still hoping they made the right decision being Zeke in.

I know a lot of people want to believe Zeke is a 100% sure thing, but he's not the first RB people have said that about.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Yup, that's called being a fan.

Nope. That's called being naive.

I love this forum for its overreaction.

Zeke is going to be fine. Teams are still stacking the box because Dak - while he's playing smart - doesn't scare defenses. Defenses fear our running game and Zeke for his breakaway ability and speed.

But as Dak starts burning teams, they'll back off their eight-men fronts, and Zeke will exploit their defenses and get his big runs.

He had 83 yards and 4 yards a carry. I didn't see the game but it couldnt have been that bad

And laid the ball down twice. luckily we got one back and Cousins is average.

Yeah, 2 fumbles = good game.

Whatevs.

He had 83 yards and 4 yards a carry. I didn't see the game but it couldnt have been that bad

And Morris's had 5 carries for 7 yards.

But it wouldn't be Cowboyszone if half of us were not overreacting.

That's great and all, but if he keeps putting the ball on the ground it won't matter.

Can't change the past.

If we're looking to have drafted the most impactful player in the draft at 4, so far, we'd have done well with Prescott.
