Zeke without Pollard

Our ol can't hold their blocks forever. You only have a split second to get by them w burst. Ya can't just trot by them expecting them to stay engaged. These ol are not the same players they were 6 years ago either. They all getting older.

That's why we're leaving so much meat left on the bone

No Burst!!

But we can blame our oline for everything

I agree with the lack of burst….that’s why I said Zeke lost a couple steps….dude can’t run anything to the outside anymore either. But look at how our line got punked on QB sneaks and short yardage…..The LOS was moving backwards. It’s a combo of Zeke loss of speed/quickness and minimal push at the line.

Ya still gotta keep running the ball. And hopefully ya can keep the defense on their heels by passing

But a dominant 4 man front gives us fits. Esp when there is no dump off passes or pitches to speedy rbs. It creates a dump off pass to a te when there's pressure which is counter productive when it becomes monotonous esp when your tes have 2 playoff tds in 3 decades (none over 6 yards)

The only difference between Zeke and our other rbs is speed.

A lack of speed takes away from that big pop. That's why there's very little difference statistically between the dirty yards between all the rbs.

Yeah he lost 3-4 yards trying to go ouch'side on 3rd and 1 against the Titans.

And running left also.

That's just about the worst statistical shot of picking up that first down w N and S Zeke

Our OC is sdupid sometimes
 
I knew against the Titans stout down hill blocking Defense we'd be dinking and dunking to our tes more w Pollard out. It's what we always do.

We did the same thing against SF in the Playoffs but Schultz'kowski couldn't score as the leading receiver lol

That's better than Zekes rinky dink 5 yard dump offs

But I just didn't think our tes could score and they PROVED ME WRONG last week against the decimated Titans. My hat goes off to Schultz'kowski

But we all know how it's gonna work out when we show up to TB, Sf, or Philly for the playoffs

Our run game is gonna get shut down and with "no screen" Zeke blocking and we're gonna dump it off to our tes.

And they have 2 playoff tds in 27 years ha ha ha

Why our little speedy change of pace backs are shaking their heads in disgust on the sidelines. Urgh.

It's gonna be a repeat performance if we don't change our losing playoff strategy unless Schultz'kowski morphs into Gronkowski

If we put a 10 million dollar Bounty per TD scored by a DC Te I still doubt they can break the Curse!! Urgh

Jason Witten had 57 Targets, 45 catches for 486 yards and scored 1 touchdown in 8 games in the playoffs in his career. And we still lost.

How is "Blocker Back" sounding to ya now

NO SCREEN ZEKE ha ha ha

Wake up Kellen Moore

After 20 years ya'd think some of these experts woulda had this sdupid te Checkdown scheme turned around.

But it's the same. Just the same caliber of players

Yeah, he keeps calling those plays that lose yard like every freakin time.
 
Did it occur to you that we looked no different than most teams on Thursday Night Football. It never was a good idea.

Ive seen it be 3rd and 28 and he'd have Geoff Swaim and old man Witten going deep lmao.

They'd have a better statistical shot at hitting the Lottery ha ha ha

Wake up Kellen Moore
 
Is Zeke going to be blamed agian to garner Fall Guy 2023, if this team fails and everyone, outside of Dak.......go home with immunity? Is that what is happening here?

I see a bunch of lighting but very little Thunder!!!

Show me some highlights of some defensive players getting trampled by our BIG POWER BACK!!!

Henry does it every single week

It's the ols fault he can't run over anybody huh

And then there's nothing but SILENCE LOL

Maybe because what you have posted here is stupid? "Henry does it every single week." LOL! That's a good one.. Did you know Henry has 7 games under 4 ypc, 4 games under 3 yards per carry and one game under 2.0? Zeke runs through tackles all the time.. but you apparently have the same blind spot for those as you have for the games when Henry gets shut down. The biggest difference is Vrabel keeps giving Henry the ball no matter what.. The Cowboys have a better passing game.. so they can do other stuff when the running game isn't working.. Just ask Philly. They held Henry to 2.7 yards per carry and Pollard to 2.1... The beat the Titans 35-10.. and we all know what happened against the Cowboys.

Zeke can not be blamed for anything. He is a JAG. Obviously in order to have playoff success the entire team needs to perform. IMHO if we are sent packing it will most likely be because (in no particular order) the defensive line can not hold up, the offensive line can not hold up or Dak wets the bed.

19 attempts for 37 yards.
1.9 ypc.

3.9ypc for the year.


Without Pollard, the running game was putrid. Zeke is beyond washed up.

12 TDs and 134 yards from 1K. You Arlington Jonesboys fans are hysterically funny.

Let Pollard go and start plowing his ex KR/WR butt inside the opponent 5 yard line or on every 3rd and 3 or less (see Elliott 3.9 yd average geniuses he gets the line to gain). You think Pollard has a hurt shoulder now. He would not last an entire NFL season. I do not see a washed up RB. I see a RB used for a purpose and not used in the passing game as he once was used. I see my offense unstoppable inside the opponent 5 yard line. I see a RB that plays always unless he is suspended by the NFL.

Keep Pollard and let Elliott go and find out. I guess you Arlington Jonesboys fans would have said Emmitt Smith was washed up after the 1996 season.

Thank the football gods you got 2 different backs, 2 different styles, 2 different uses, and 2 different person that do not throw interceptions out your backfield or fumble in your backfield. One is enough for that.
