The Moore Experiment could make all the difference. Perhaps bringing back their greatness they had together initially.

No telling how they could light it up behind this OL and leagues leading rusher. Imagine a prolific passing QB in play action with our offense. OMG we’d become instant SB contenders.
nope no leading rusher remember this forum seems to want Zeke gone hes not worth it right? 14mil for a guy like Zeke or 34 for Dak or the likes of Cousins, Stafford, Carr LOL

That is the kind of thinking that Jerry was using when Emmitt held out.No two running backs are alike. Not two teams are alike. He is one of the best players in the league and surely the best player on this team.
Possibly but the RB position is very expendable and with our O line, the addition of Cooper and hopefully a new and improved OC then we shouldn’t be as dependent on Zeke.

So many people are scared of losing him because we’ve relied on him so much. Where has that got us? Sure, we won a playoff game or two for the first or second time in nearly twenty years and then we got shut down. How many SB winning teams have had the leading rusher in the league (due to carries)? Not many, if any. We don’t need the Ewok, let him play his games and leave. If the rest of the team does it’s job we’ll be fine.

Drop the leading rusher excuse. Not only is that one of the worst and most misleading stats, he is also the leading rusher because he had more attempts than any other RB which is yet another reason we shouldn't keep him.

It’s hilarious how you, and others, act like Zeke is invincible because he hasn’t been hurt yet. He may get away with it for another year or to but just wait, it’s coming, and when he does get hurt you’ll probably be the first one crying that we used him too much, wasted his career, and the season is over because we can’t win without him. Zeke has you by the balls.

if Carr was our QB, Cooper would see his numbers bottom out again. Not sure why some would want Carr instead of Dak. The numbers just don't bear that out as a good deal. BTW...Zeke on the Raiders would make them contenders.

Zeke is MUCH more than a RB that gets yardage. Its the little things he does very well too. Pass blocking.

pass catching, blocking, tough yards , big chunk yards etc the lack of TDs is not his fault its was the POS vanilla offense with high call play calling.. they played checkers while others played chess..hes still 2nd in the league in actual Rushing TDs since he came into the league so hes simply not leading In total TDs etc..

I'd make a trade with the Raiders for their first round pick and Carr. You make that deal and I'd trade. That would provide leverage around the contract talks with Dak, it would give you an option for a starter if Dak doesn't play ball or it would give you a quality backup, which is one of the few areas of weakness on this team. It would give you ammunition to go out and get an impact player in next years draft and a replacement for Dak or Emmitt, if necessary. I mean, if you make that move, Dak has zero leverage going forward and makes it very easy for the Cowboys to move him for a premium in draft picks. If Dak really wants out of Dallas, the Cowboys could trade him and go out and Draft his replacement next year with the extra picks. The Cowboys could put themselves in a position to manage the cap for years, stay strong contenders for a Super Bowl and draft and develop their future Franchise QB.
