Finally facing a competent QB and this defense looks shell shocked.

The scary thing is that there is not a lot of difference between Carr and Watson.

 

[Genghis Khan]

No, but there's a significant difference in the quickness and burst we saw from Zeke last week to what we saw from Rico just now.

Rico looked horrid last week.

If it's "uncatchable" (which by the way is pretty subjective) it should at least be defensive holding. Just because the ball is uncatchable doesn't mean the hold didn't happen.

he ran through the hold

 

[kidd]

I really hate Derrick Carr

Exactly.

Just because a ball may not be within reach doesn't mean you can just outright pull a guy or tackle him while the ball is in the air.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

The scary thing is that there is not a lot of difference between Carr and Watson.

Not sure about that one.

 

[Bipo]

Zeke got hemorrhoids or something this week?

 

[Cotton]

This shit is pissing me off.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Deuce just isn't good.

It also often the reason why the ball is uncatchable.

 

[Texas Ace]

Rico looked horrid last week.

Because he's not very good.

But if there's any space to run, he's going to get more out of that space than Zeke will, whereas Zeke will get more out of the more tight spaces where physicality is needed.

 

[Bipo]

Brady just called Turd an elite playmaker.

 

[Texas Ace]

Not sure about that one.

Yeah I don't think that's true at all.

 

[boozeman]

Spann-Ford can't block.

 

[ravidubey]

Way to kill a drive, back to back Zeke

 

[Bipo]

Two straight runs...nothing

 

[Plan9Misfit]

Because he's not very good.

But if there's any space to run, he's going to get more out of that space than Zeke will, whereas Zeke will get more out of the more tight spaces where physicality is needed.

Zeke doesn’t have the speed or burst to do anything about it at this point. That’s why ignoring the RB need was so stupid.

 

[data]

Hot take

Ezekiel Elliott will have a edit +5yard run today

 

[Stars]

Nice blocking on that third down

 

[1bigfan13]

These Zeke runs are wasted plays.
