Probably but we rely on him too much at times and it bites us in the ass. He isn't Tom Brady and never will be.

He isn’t Mahomes, Burrows, Allen either. Not even a Matt Stafford.

He’s just not one of those guys who is gonna be the focal point of an offense. He needs elite WRs and a good or great running game. He has terrible mechanics and really misfires on far too many passes, he’s constantly under throwing deep balls or throwing behind on stuff over the middle, etc.

He’s painfully average.

I've been a lot more interested in college ball than I have been in the NFL for a few years. Especially when this team gets gullible fans pumped up by blowing smoke up their asses. Only to crash and burn. But those same fans will be throwing a fortune at Jerry for tickets and jerseys and yelling "This is our year!". This game just ended and they're already saying it.

And those tickets are ridiculously expensive. $100+ bucks for a seat up in the top row of the fourth level.
A good seat is $500+.
A good seat at a college game is usually around $60-$120.

He played like shit. I said that. But when TY Hilton is out 2nd best WR and he just walked off the street that's an issue, no?

When Zeke is a featured part of our offense that's a huge problem, no?

49ers have more weapons, Eagles have more weapons, Chiefs have more weapons, Bengals have more weapons. These are facts.

Hate to break it to you, but Dak is our QB next season and the next.

At least theyre watching a real game in an architectural marvel with art installations. Now, the fans paying for overpriced concessions at the plaza outside the stadium?

How Jerruh separates idiots from their money should be a federal investigation

TY Hilton and Gallup are decent 2nd options when you get outside of the elite tandems like in Cincy, Minnesota and Buffalo.

I get it, we aren’t loaded at the WR position. That tends to happen when you have $40 mil per year tied up in a guy who can’t give you $40 mil per year play.

That type of money should be reserved for king makers like Brady, Rogers, Etc. You can’t have all pros at every skill position when you pay a guy like that.

You have a ton of money tied up in a so-so QB and a washed up RB.

You’re right. Dak will be here and he’ll continue to not live up to his contract.

Dak had a loaded offense last year and they could only muster 17 at home against SF.
More talent won't make Dak capable of beating a very good defense in the playoffs.

I just see no way we can keep trotting Zeke out there. It's one of those things that everyone watching the game can see but our coaches seem handcuffed or oblivious.

He can’t even be relied on for 3 ypc anymore. He made it like halfway through the season as a functional running back as part of a rotation. Then the wheels fell off.

He has to go. I thought maybe he could recapture some of the magic but down the stretch he’s been a flat liability. There’s nothing there anymore.

The Dak haters are in their glory. Just waiting to pounce when the Cowboys lose in the playoffs.

The environment at AT&T stadium is very sterile. It doesn't have a real "football feeling" if that makes sense.

The WRs didn’t throw all those picks. You can’t win when the qb is always giving the ball to the other team. We had the better team tonight our qb just can’t elevate

There is something wrong with you if you are an unconditional Dak supporter, at this point.

Golly gee, if you just surround him with more talent and the '85 Bears defense, then maybe ...

Mahomes, Burrow, sure.

Stafford or Allen though I disagree with strongly. He is a lot like those guys. Allen has had very similar problems. Stafford has been a loser most of his career. The guy had one year with a great offensive mind and a highly constructed offense and quickly fell back to earth.

I digress though. Everyone waited for Romo to fail, everyone waits for Dak to fail, maybe we should rethink our strategy a bit.

The good news is Lamb is legit. Now we need to start trying to build around that. I'd actually start with another RB and try to make this a run oriented offense again. We are so much better when Pollard is out there. That's because Pollard is great but also because Zeke is bad. I'd keep building the Oline too. Tyler Smith is a stud. Martin is a stud. Make this thing special again.

Also can we trade Tyron? He seems to have tread left. Maybe a team bites with some real picks. But those are the tough decisions like Zeke that we can't seem to make.
