Zeke
237 rushes/1002 yards 4.2 avg. (10 Tds)
47 receptions/287 yards 6.1 avg.

Pollard
130 rushes/719 yards 5.5 avg. (2Tds)
39 receptions/337 yards 8.6 avg.

I think it's fair to say that Pollard is easily the better player overall. Pollard had a large sample size in 2021 to dispute that his higher averages are a fluke.

Yeah Zeke has superior pass protection skills and a running style better suited for short yardage and goal line work. But Pollard clearly has the skills, speed, and strength to move the offense down the field along with big play ability that this offense is going to desperately need for the 2022 season.

At the very least Kellen Moore/MM better have a 50/50 snap share between the both of them this season.

Every year is like Ground hog day with this.

Tony P - zero PCL

Zeke - 1 PCL

So what happened in 2020? NO PCL there.

And what where the stats before the PCL injury? Pollard 6.8 ypc leading the NFL and Zeke at 5.5.

Clearly it is much more than just the PCL.

Play Pollard more as a slot WR this season. He can motion to anywhere on the field.

With Noah Brown likely starting, that puts a legit blocker on the outside.

I don't know where the behind the LOS scrimmage motion went on offense. When Pollard proved himself a legit runner, Pollar in motion should have only increased, but it seemed to disappear.
