The difference in explosion between this Zeke and now is INSANE. And I know our OL isn’t the same now, but back then there were plenty of times where he had nowhere to run but would find ways to break tackles. He never does that now..

The time has come, the cowboys have cut zeke. I just wanted to come here and remember just how amazing a young Zeke. His speed, his agility, that quick first step, and his elusiveness. It’s what made him a rushing champ twice in three years. Sure, all of that is gone but he turned into a damn good power back and whenever we needed a yard or two I wasn’t afraid when we gave the ball to zeke. Sure he didn’t get any huge runs anymore but he filled his role perfectly and knew that it was pollards time now. He’s a great player, and will always have a special place in my heart.

O Line died.Every running back can get 1000 behind the 2016 O Line and apretty much you saw what Demarco Murray got in 2014(about 1800 or smth).Also 2016 Cowboys had the 5th ranked defense and they had the lead a lot over opponents so you couls eun to milk the clock.Nowadays with a trash defense and Dak starts bad and all of a sudden down 17-you gòt to throw your way into the game.Plus also the team is evolved to more pass heavy cause you got 3 potential no.1 recievers who can get 1000 yards.Thats why.And of course the QB switched a lot in 2020 so teams just stacked the box to stop Zeke.And also he has taken too many hits and is wearing out and also he been a workhorse even in Ohio State.He been used a ton.Like Eddie Geroger for ex.that fell apart in mid 2000.I still believe Zeke is a great player and behind a good O Line can do a lot of damage and get 1400 yards.Put him in Tampa for superbowl instead of Fournette and he gets 150 yards vs Chiefs vs That O Line.He just doesnt hit the hole as fast as he once could and doesnt have the homerun ability
