I want everyone to know how bad this is going to hurt. It is not something I take lightly, and it is done so out of great love for my Cowboys. Okay, no more putting it off, so here goes...





~deep breath~





Go Niners!!!

I cant even bother hating other teams anymore. Just feels useless because of how inept that we have been for so long. Guess my loathing has moved to my own team.

No Zeke. Nice.

Finally get to see Pollard as the lead back. I wouldn't be surprised at all if we have a season high in rushing yards now that we have a shiftier/faster RB getting the reps.

So who is/was our third string tailback? I don't even know. Pollard won't be able to take every carry today.

Hypothetically, Pollard goes bananas today and maybe the remaining games

Would we cut Zeke this off-season? Is that within realm of possibility?

Snowballs chance in hell we be able to trade him.

Just added Tony Pollard to my fantasy squad for the playoffs.

Speaking of FF, I just realized last night that I won my matchup with @jsmith6919 last week because of that safety on the last play of the Ravens-Browns game. That safety gave me a win by .04 points. :lol

I could see Jerry talking himself into believing Zeke will bounce back to his old self once Dak and the OL are healthy. So Zeke will return in 2021, IMO.

Jaylon Smith on the other hand had better not get too comfortable.

The biggest thing we'll miss with Zeke's absence is the pass protection. He may be a sluggish runner but he's been clutch picking up free blitzers this year.

The dead money would be over 35 million, and when you consider the cap will likely drop 22 million down to 176 million total, it’s cap suicide.

Recommended out from spotrac.com is 2023, where the dead money drops to a mere 6.7 million. At that point we’d have paid Zeke a hair over his guaranteed 50m total.

It’ll be most interesting to see Pollard handle that (he’sbeen very unreliable in pass pro) and passing game out in the flat.

Im predicting 7 receptions.

Also, he won’t be receiving kicks. Hope we don’t have a ST blunder and lose possession.

Pfffft, Jaylon is a made man. He will be back.

Not only Flex'd out of SNF, but relegated to the early game slot on CBS.

Damn.

And he will continue to get the lion's share of carries to "get our money's worth."
