It's a bountiful list of these situations.

Since Zeke did his extension in 2019, his YPC has decreased at least a half yard per carry every year since. This year it was almost a full yard.





You mean except for 2021, when his YPC went UP(4.0 to 4.2) and he broke 1,000 yards, right?

But we know how you like to ignore stats that don't support your narrative, so carry on...


Let's review. Has Zeke's YPC been lower in every year vis-a-vis 2019 when he received his extension?

I'll help - yes.

In fact, after his high-water mark in 2018, his YPC have been lower every year than that 2018 season.

Lastly, gaining 1K rushing isn't a great accomplishment anymore. It's not 1987.



Dak came into the league

with a prime Smith, Martin and Frederick. I think 2018 was when Frederick got hurt and Smith started have more injuries.

Dallas still has a good OL but his first few years it was a great one.

I don't doubt he has fallen off (he has) but so has the standard that OL had.

I have this odd feeling that Jerrah wants OBJ on his team


I agree.
JJ is a PR hound, got back money from several players, and needs a WR.

Actually, his high water rushing mark was his rookie season, when he had his highest yards, TD's and YPC.


Oh, and his YPA didn't decrease every year, it actually increased in 2021 from 2020. If it decreased by .5 yards every year (like you stated), his YPC would have been 2.7 by 2022

I'm not making my point clear, which is on me.

So, let's try it this way instead with a simple question:

Has Zeke been the same player since he got his big extension in 2019?
Can I help?

No. He's been a very bad RB thats been outshined by Pollard every year.

To get even more cap space
Possible they restructure Tyron Smith for the hundredth time
Keep kicking that can down the road


Rick you were right I was wrong. Lawrence just got restructured adding 8.9 in cap space.
Zeke received 50 mil  
Chip : 3/15/2023 5:06 pm : link
for 4 years and did not get a dime more than the guarantee of 50 million.

No problem. It was widely known down here that Lawrence and Smith would be restructured
A lot of buzz about OBJ

They're creating a lot of space. Dallas usually doesn't sign big free agents. Don't know which direction they're going. I hope it's not OBJ.

He's cooked. And I for one can't wait until he's out of the league so I don't have to see him do that idiotic 'Feed me!' gesture. God, I hated that.
