Why would they fabricate his illness right before the Niners game? That’s ridiculous. He’s our leading rusher this season.
Don't know, but last I heard, we were ranked dead last in the NFL for rushing. It's hard to rank any lower than that. :muttley:

Right, so why not play your leading rusher in a critical game if they’re healthy?

So you expect him to receive the bulk of the load when he’s been averging under 3.0 a carry his first two seasons?
Whoa slow down there partner.

Who said anything about Deuce receiving the bulk of the load???

Also, what he is averaging doesn't matter. Getting thrown on the field and just running plays isn't giving him a chance and isn't the way he should be managed. Tell me, how many of the runs he has had in his career were designed for him? I'll answer that for ya, NONE.

How many carries do you want him to get? How do you know they haven’t designed a running play for him? If he can’t run the plays the rest of our backs are running he’s not going to be part of our rotation.

Something still doesn't add up.

Why is he inactive? Besides Dowdle, which Cowboys RB is better?

Who gets Zeke's touches?

With all the passing that this offense does, wouldn't his blocking ability have value?

How does this make the RB position stronger against the Falcons?

Who specifically made this decision? Should it have been his decision to make?
