Zeke and it’s not even close.

If this was Zeke or Gurley it’d be a better debate.
There would be no debate at all...Gurley is one of the best talents to ever come out of college.You could tell when he played at Georgia he was going to be elite.

He's Emmitt Smith quality type

Zeke. Because he’s a much better, more complete back. (I’m actually surprised you’re even asking the question.)

Right now Zeke has 794 combined rushing and receiving yards. Kamara has 801.

They are both pretty complete backs.

It would be interesting to see how Kamara would do if we wasn't splitting time with another Pro-bowl caliber RB (Ingram).

He is having an incredible year so far.

If keeps up the pace, he's on pace for:

1600 yards rushing
62 receptions
702 yards receiving
30 TDs (NFL record if he can pull it off)

Kamara isn't all that as a runner. He's had 4 games under 4 YPC this year, even though he has a good line and great passing game and doesn't have defenses keying in on him on every snap.

Zeke has had two sub 3 YPC games, but in the other 5 games, the lowest he's had is 4.4 YPC. He's just a more consistent and efficient runner than Kamara.

Now does Kamara murder him in the passing game, it's hard to argue otherwise, but give Zeke to Sean Payton and Kamara to Scott Linehan and I bet that discussion changes too.

Kamara couldn't carry the team like Zeke does. Brees make Kamara great, he would be a nice player on the Cowboys.
zeke isnt carrying the team lol
the wash game
CAR YDS AVG TD LONG
Dak Prescott 6 33 5.5 1 14
Ezekiel Elliott 15 33 2.2 0 6
Adrian Peterson 24 99 4.1 0 23

big game for div lead , and it doesnt look like zeke carried the team or the ball well.
AP the old man out played zeke.

Zeke. Imagine what he could do with Sean Payton as his coach instead of Garrett.

Zeke.

But when comparing draft location, it's tougher.
Can tell Garrett to go back to his 2010-13 days when running the ball was an afterthought with Kamara lol

Ingram missed the first 4 games of the season (I think it was 4) so Kamara was "the guy" and his stats were higher then...


IMO, in our offense and our (lame) coaching staff/process, Zeke>Kamara
