Zeke watch - The rushing title is in the bag

[Titleist]

Pretty unspectacular 1,400 yards. Honestly, I can’t really think of many games this season where he wowed me.

So what? Several of Emmitt’s seasons were not super flashy, more workman-like, and it ended up pretty good for us.

Zeke would have more TD’s if linehan had a brain.

For some reason Linehan loves to run out of the shotgun at the goal Line. I know he is using the threat of Dak’s running. But there’s something to be said about letting Zeke get a head of steam by the time he gets the ball.

It’s called sarcasm because that’s what the poster being @ was arguing previously........

My apologies

 

[Section446]

We would be a bottom 5 OFFENSE in the league without Zeke

Fixed

Smith was great due to longevity - however, he had countless amazing plays the first few seasons of his career. Don’t try to compare Smith and Zeke. Just don’t even attempt.

The biggest what if, is Romo getting a chance to play with Zeke the year he should have gotten his job back. Wasted opportunity and possibly dumbest football decision in history.

That list goes like this

1) Drafting and paying jamarcus russell
2) Not giving Tony his job back and starting a bum

It’s all good dude. Obviously we are on the same page.

I feel like some people take running back talent for granted still. It’s like any other position. You can find good ones later in the draft. But the higher the pick the better the chances of getting a stud.

It’s no different than any other position.

Check this out. Zeke made Todd Gurley quit. He got tired of chasing him so he no showed the game today.

I'm not surprised. He never had the cranium to get this done.

All hail Ezekiel Elijah Elliott. The Rushing King.

Zeke 1,434
(I'm a wittle) Gurley 1,251
Barkley 1,198

Understand this, if the NFL Commissioner was a man, Zeke would have started his career with three rushing titles his first three years in the league. His numbers with those games missed and the removal of the distraction of the suspension last year would put him at or near the most productive RB in the history of the NFL 3 years into his career.

Sure, he's had a good to great line those three years but he's also played with a God awful QB and no passing game. You play Dallas, you sell out to stop Zeke. He carries the load every week starting week 1 of his rookie year. There is no burden lifted off of him ever.

Special player. He's easily one of the greatest players to ever wear that uniform.

Well said!!

 

[Texasfootball21]

Zeke is the best player in the NFL period. Go Cowboys.

Did David Johnson wow you?

 

[CowboyStar88]

Did David Johnson wow you?

He’s not wowed because he hates the player.

 

[Gaede]

Zeke is amazing. I can't wait to see how he does next year with a new OC

 

[stilltheguru]

He’s not wowed because he hates the player.

Lol every top back is better than Zeke apparently. It’s a cute act

Zeke is the main cog that makes the offense go but we got people heehawing “Dak is 31-15!”

Totally agree

Who knows how long Zeke’s career will last, but in terms of productivity through their first three seasons, Smith and Zeke are pretty comparable.

 

[khiladi]

Zeke doesn’t have to score TDs, he needs to force defenses to adjust to open up the passing game, which he does all the time, which is why he faces more stacked boxes than anybody else and has the highest yards per attempt against them next to only Connor, who doesn’t face them anywhere near as much...

It’s not his fault his garbage QB can’t take advantage of it. It’s obvious it becomes more of an issue in the red zone for Zeke, because even the safeties and DBs are that much closer to the box

AND HE IS JUST GETTING STARTED!

Based on how he plays, his body type, the fact the man hasn't ever really been seriously injured.... He may be able to play similar to Smith, Peterson, Gore..... we could have him as our RB for the next decade.
