Speaker 1: The following is a production of Dallas Cowboys dot Com
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys Football Club Blowing out of the backfield,
Speaker 1: flooding down the sidelines. He's hanging with the Boys, broadcasting
Speaker 1: live from Dallas Cowboys World Headquarters at the Star in Frisco.
Speaker 1: Now your host Nate Newton, Kurt Daniels, and Shannon Gross
Speaker 1: Friday Football Tomorrow. Breaking news right now, break Taylor's going on.
Speaker 1: Tay breaking the news, girl. Zeke breaks the news. You
Speaker 1: guys heard yesterday that the reports coming out that Zeke
Speaker 1: had been offered a contract, but it was going to
Speaker 1: make him the second highest paid running back, not the first.
Speaker 1: So you heard that news, yes, Well, the twenty nineteen
Speaker 1: version of response to that is Ezekiel Elliott retweeting this
Speaker 1: tweet by Joe Thomas, the former Cleveland Brown lineman. He said,
Speaker 1: throughout the course of NFL history, if you are the
Speaker 1: best player at your position, or clearly one of the best,
Speaker 1: when you resign a second contract with the team that
Speaker 1: drafted you, you usually beat the highest paid contract at
Speaker 1: your position by fifteen to twenty percent, which is very large. Now, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's not twenty that's him. In other words, that's
Speaker 1: him asking for fourteen million years he exactly, exactly because
Speaker 1: right now, what the news out there was nothing has
Speaker 1: been confirmed right right right, is that the contract that
Speaker 1: has been offered to Zeke would be between Gurley and Lebon, right,
Speaker 1: which would be what thirteen issues yes around there and
Speaker 1: then so Gurley's getting thirteen something. So if he's retweeting
Speaker 1: something that says you need fifteen to twenty percent, that's
Speaker 1: he's asking for fourteen to fifteen million. Yeah. Yeah, Now
Speaker 1: now real quick, I mean you know without stepping on
Speaker 1: the toes of a brass that pays us, what are
Speaker 1: you just your quick thoughts? Give it to him or
Speaker 1: just wait till the end. I think you said it
Speaker 1: best yesterday and you said that you've been around this
Speaker 1: team for a long time and you're kind of getting
Speaker 1: that like I don't care mentality anymore because it's just
Speaker 1: becomes so frustrating. Yes, I think they're going to hold
Speaker 1: out again. Well you think you think you think you
Speaker 1: think Zekenam is ready to hold out. I think Zeke
Speaker 1: is ready to hold out. It's my personal opinion today
Speaker 1: on Friday, right, I also think that Jerry in the brass, Yeah,
Speaker 1: like you said that his backbone is getting stiff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're getting a little like, yeah here you need Zeke. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we saw what happens without Zeke. Right right. This is
Speaker 1: a good team, but I don't think they're a great
Speaker 1: team with Zeke. I think you're a great You have
Speaker 1: a potential this year to be a great team. Wow,
Speaker 1: But man, I don't know if i'd pay a running
Speaker 1: back that kind of money. Oh, you curting me, you Curt.
Speaker 1: Maybe here's the thing, you Kurt. You want to know
Speaker 1: what my big my big issue is that Zeke has
Speaker 1: not shown me. And I love Zeke, we all do,
Speaker 1: go ahead, he has not shown me he is responsible
Speaker 1: enough off the field if I give him a long
Speaker 1: term one word and one word, and that is what
Speaker 1: they have always asked players that they give eight or
Speaker 1: more million dollars. Can I trust trust you? Yes? And
Speaker 1: so far I haven't. I haven't seen a long enough
Speaker 1: stretch of can incidents that haven't happened? Now? Have they
Speaker 1: been Zeke's fault? Who knows? Right? But he it's they
Speaker 1: continually come up. They have since he gets he's before
Speaker 1: he signed here, they have He's missed games because of
Speaker 1: alleged stuff there's still some alleged stuff that happened in
Speaker 1: the off season. Can I trust you and now I'll
Speaker 1: give you that kind of money? I have to one,
Speaker 1: you got to be clean and he that scares me.
Speaker 1: I think we need him, we need him on the field,
Speaker 1: but it scares me to give a guy that kind
Speaker 1: of money, and you know he's won a lot of
Speaker 1: guaranteed money. I don't know if I man, Okay, Tricky,
Speaker 1: I'll ask you to a question, Yes, man, rock and roll.
Speaker 1: This was right before I got here, the DeMarco Murray negotiations.
Speaker 1: Are you seeing any similarities now at this point? Obviously
Speaker 1: it's different with a holdout and he was a free agent,
Speaker 1: But in the sense that DeMarco knew what he wanted,
Speaker 1: the team knew what they wanted at running back, then
Speaker 1: that next year you have kind of the rotating Joseph
Speaker 1: Randall was the start. You know, they did see what
Speaker 1: happened when they didn't go back to DeMarco. Well, I
Speaker 1: did well, I think with DeMarco, And you tell me
Speaker 1: what you think, Nate. I think with DeMarco he was
Speaker 1: towards the end of his career as far as a
Speaker 1: running back goes, and they had used the hell out
Speaker 1: of him. I think he got four hundred carries or
Speaker 1: something like three something like that that year. So I
Speaker 1: think they knew going into that last year, like, we're
Speaker 1: gonna use this guy up. See if we can get
Speaker 1: him in a deal. If not, cut bait, let's go
Speaker 1: somewhere else. Zeke still got several years left in him,
Speaker 1: and I think it's a little different. And then the
Speaker 1: key thing is it's one word, and I've been waiting.
Speaker 1: It's only about trust. And I'm serious. I think I
Speaker 1: think that's what it's all about. Because understand this as
Speaker 1: much as us three and here love Zeke and wan't
Speaker 1: Zeke here. So bad is you can't go to management
Speaker 1: and say, man, get that man, it's fifteen million dollars.
Speaker 1: And then next year something happened and he got it.
Speaker 1: He can't see the commissioner no more for nothing. It
Speaker 1: ain't no more discussion. The commissioner probably told him, okay, Zeke,
Speaker 1: even if you bump a guy walking by him and
Speaker 1: he fall on the ground, you're gonna be suspended. Now
Speaker 1: that fifteen million dollars turns out to be less six
Speaker 1: games now, so it goes from fifteen to eighteen or
Speaker 1: nineteen because you're not getting that performance out. And you
Speaker 1: know what you just made me think of something? Was that?
Speaker 1: What were Jerry's comments last week? I have how do
Speaker 1: you get trust? Yeah, but how do you get trust
Speaker 1: by talking to a person building a relationship? You do
Speaker 1: what you earn. You earned trust. Jerry said, I have
Speaker 1: earned the right to joke quisite That makes sense to war. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what I'm tarned it. So he's basically saying I've
Speaker 1: earned the right because of our personal relationship or what
Speaker 1: with the ups and downs we have went through together.
Speaker 1: When he said it, I understood it totally. And one
Speaker 1: thing that I know for a fact, and this is
Speaker 1: I know that Stephen has to touch his dad. Dad.
Speaker 1: Let me do this dad, because he know Dad to
Speaker 1: get frustrating. Man. Get that man is money. Yeah, get
Speaker 1: that man is money now because we you know, and
Speaker 1: if we hey, we'll make it up somewhere down the road. Yeah.
Speaker 1: That costs us a draft pick car. It may cost
Speaker 1: us not paying another guy because he'll he'll be like,
Speaker 1: I don't want to miss the opportunity to have a
Speaker 1: shot at the super Bowl. So but Stephen says, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be financially responsible because I want to extend past
Speaker 1: two years of having great teams, good to great teams.
Speaker 1: This nine is nine and whatever ten and this leving
Speaker 1: and this then the next year nine and whatever, eight
Speaker 1: and eight. That is not success. And a lot of
Speaker 1: times you lose that success number one, because you don't
Speaker 1: draft well, because you overpay your stars. And now you
Speaker 1: start to descend because as good as Zeke dak and
Speaker 1: Amari is no offensive line, no even his Lyne. Guess
Speaker 1: what you did do with Atlanta did last night? You
Speaker 1: just paid Matt Ryan a new contract and he could
Speaker 1: not stay on his feet. He could not stay on
Speaker 1: his feet. As great as this kid has always been,
Speaker 1: to me a good quarterback, Matt Ryan for that, He's
Speaker 1: always been a good, good to great quarterback. But one
Speaker 1: all the time I blame something on him was a
Speaker 1: super Bowl. But he got there because he could throw
Speaker 1: that rock, he could splain that rock. But every year
Speaker 1: something happened, defense fall apart, stefens Rne and all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, you ain't got no money. Yeah, how do
Speaker 1: you pay these guys? So that's where Stephen is saying,
Speaker 1: I've got to be able. Now we as fans and
Speaker 1: me as ex sprayer, like, man, now, get this man
Speaker 1: his money. But I understand that without a balance, without
Speaker 1: a Jalen Smith saying you know what, I'll take two
Speaker 1: meal less. Yeah, you know, and you got to have
Speaker 1: a couple of those guys because you're gonna pay some
Speaker 1: guys that's gonna stand him strong, like hey man, I'm
Speaker 1: a fourth round pick. Yeah yeah. And that new mentality
Speaker 1: that all started with DeMarcus Ware because I felt used
Speaker 1: to before the kind of the new change. That's when
Speaker 1: they started stopped going, hey, let's let's quit overpaying these
Speaker 1: guys because we're emotionally attacked. That was the first one
Speaker 1: in my memory that was like stood still had a
Speaker 1: pretty productive career and in but he was the first
Speaker 1: guy that they actually let go that had been a cowboy,
Speaker 1: that wanted to be a cowboy for life. And that's
Speaker 1: when it started changing. And even even he wanted to
Speaker 1: take a lesser contract, but not to the fact of
Speaker 1: what they wanted him to take. And this is what
Speaker 1: I tell people is, you know, and I'm glad you
Speaker 1: brought this news. That's what I need. Hot hot news
Speaker 1: that we can just name that was hot. Yeah, And so,
Speaker 1: but you have to see the business fan understand what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. The IRA oppressive. I love the Cowboys at
Speaker 1: all costs. They don't have a middle ground. They either
Speaker 1: with management are they with the players well? And I
Speaker 1: think you're bringing up a lot of good points that
Speaker 1: the front office has been pretty transparent of how they're
Speaker 1: going to handle the way that these players are reacting
Speaker 1: because the reactions. Now, you know, you did bring up
Speaker 1: DeMarcus ware, but now we're in twenty nineteen where people
Speaker 1: can voice their own expressions of things that they feel
Speaker 1: are going on here with their contracts. You know, you
Speaker 1: think about DeMarcus Lawrence and last year when he got
Speaker 1: franchise tack, he had the perfect attitude about it. He's like,
Speaker 1: look tag me now because I've seen what happens with
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, and this is going to pay dividends for
Speaker 1: me if I have another great year. You know, I
Speaker 1: have the surgery on the line. I'm going to do
Speaker 1: this the right way. I think DeMarcus played that very well.
Speaker 1: I think that Dak is playing this well. I think
Speaker 1: that Amari Cooper is playing this well. I think that
Speaker 1: Zeke is taking the opposite approach and that seems to
Speaker 1: be hurting him from the outside looking in well, public perception. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: he's damn he's he's damaging his his his credit with
Speaker 1: Cowboys fans because they're first one it started. It was like,
Speaker 1: get Zeke in camp. Now you've seen a lot of
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff out there on social media. It's
Speaker 1: like trade him yet, what you can get for him
Speaker 1: and move on? Let's see. This is where they're missing it.
Speaker 1: This is where they're missing it. And this is where
Speaker 1: I tell people, as a player, you can see both sides.
Speaker 1: It's a business and you gotta do what's right for
Speaker 1: your team. Team. Okay, but understand this right here, let's
Speaker 1: use bail who they say reset the market. Okay for
Speaker 1: a whole year. He said, I'm gonna do this, right,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna sign this. I'm gonna sign this franchise tag
Speaker 1: for the second time. Yeah, no, for the first time.
Speaker 1: Remember no, it was two. It was the first one
Speaker 1: he signed, remember second second. You're right, you're right. Okay. Now,
Speaker 1: you gotta understand if you become twenty five years old
Speaker 1: as a running back, and this is history, if you
Speaker 1: become twenty five years old as a running back, they
Speaker 1: tag you, and then they tag you again at twenty six,
Speaker 1: and then at twenty seven they say you fall off
Speaker 1: a cliff. Do you want to go down that road?
Speaker 1: So Zeke like, I'm twenty four, Yeah, I want to
Speaker 1: have a new contract by twenty five. I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: come in here next year. And then all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: well Levion set the new market, but he also set
Speaker 1: the franchise tag, so now you tag him if he
Speaker 1: holds out next year. Now he's stuck, so he's got
Speaker 1: to sign that tag. He played for three this year,
Speaker 1: nine next years, so he's signed that tag maybe which
Speaker 1: is twelve million. So now the cowboy is still winning
Speaker 1: on this sand. They still winning. Then the next year
Speaker 1: the zeke'send there like wow. So Dak is doing the
Speaker 1: right thing by being in and being who he is
Speaker 1: because he feels comfortable with what's transpired up to this point.
Speaker 1: Amari don't care. He's making fourteen meal, so he either
Speaker 1: get two or three more meal. He missed two or
Speaker 1: three more mile, so he don't care. But Zeke is saying,
Speaker 1: if I don't do this now, when do I do
Speaker 1: it next year? Don't work? I get it, and I'm
Speaker 1: here I'm not mad at him. I'm not ever mad
Speaker 1: at a player for trying to make money because I
Speaker 1: know how this league works. They don't want you. You're gone,
Speaker 1: you might be able to treat, you might be unemployed
Speaker 1: to never make a dollar again. So you gotta get
Speaker 1: it when you get it. It's different than the normal
Speaker 1: working world. So I'm never gonna be mad at a
Speaker 1: player for trying to make money because you know contracts,
Speaker 1: you know they're not guaranteed. We cut you, you don't
Speaker 1: make any more money. The guaranteed money part is so
Speaker 1: I get it. So if you it's a business, and
Speaker 1: everybody gets it, it's a business. Fan sometimes get wrapped
Speaker 1: up in the emotion of it, and you know, but
Speaker 1: that's why I think, Well, I'm just gonna say about
Speaker 1: Levon Bell and the emotion of it. I mean, last year,
Speaker 1: at the start, everyone's still drafting him in their fantasy leagues.
Speaker 1: They're yeah, they're in the emotion of it. And then
Speaker 1: you see by the middle of the season you see
Speaker 1: stories about the Steelers going through his locker and taking
Speaker 1: out his Jordan's like, yeah, there's always that flip switch,
Speaker 1: and you kind of talked about it, like now you're
Speaker 1: seeing that on social media, and I think unfortunately for Zeke,
Speaker 1: even though he is probably doing the things for him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I haven't spoken to him or his people,
Speaker 1: but that's gonna switch. Yeah. Well, the thing about it
Speaker 1: is the agent plays a lot. Now when Stevens say
Speaker 1: they agree, the agent plays a lot because the agent, uh,
Speaker 1: they'd be ranked too with players like, oh, man, you
Speaker 1: didn't get Zeke his money, you didn't get Dakis, Man,
Speaker 1: what would I want to sign with you for? So yeah,
Speaker 1: so they pushing from a selfish mode too. But but
Speaker 1: this is what I It's two sides of every deal.
Speaker 1: And when you you know, and I'm not asking people
Speaker 1: to be rational fans, think how you think. You know,
Speaker 1: because you are the ones buying these tickets and keeping
Speaker 1: all of us afloat, So think how you think. But
Speaker 1: I understand how much Stephen Jones is thinking, and I
Speaker 1: understand how Zeke is thinking because history is there. If
Speaker 1: you want to just say, okay, why is this player
Speaker 1: thinking this way? Well, every time you turn around, every
Speaker 1: analytical number says running backs don't count. So that's what
Speaker 1: people believe. The fantasy football is what people believe. Even
Speaker 1: though the first person they draft is Todd Gurley or
Speaker 1: Zekiel for the touchdowns, for the yards and all that.
Speaker 1: They draft them, but they don't believe in them, you know,
Speaker 1: unless they don't score a touchdown that week. And so
Speaker 1: I get it all. I get it all. But the
Speaker 1: thing that is more amazing than any thing is can
Speaker 1: we sustain a drive in the playoffs. I think we
Speaker 1: can win games, I'm ze, but can we get in
Speaker 1: the playoffs and not get exposed? It's Tony Poller who
Speaker 1: we think is you know, is he gonna fall short?
Speaker 1: You know, because you can't you can't tell a fan
Speaker 1: are a group of people that Okay, yeah we pumped
Speaker 1: Tony Poler, but something happening and he wasn't as good
Speaker 1: as we thought. Well, look, you've always said, and I've
Speaker 1: heard you say this before the running backs you don't
Speaker 1: really see them until the fourth week of the season.
Speaker 1: You say that. That's right, So it's fair to still
Speaker 1: give Tony Poler. You got to remember opportunity to see me.
Speaker 1: I don't judge a guy. Some guy's a fast starter,
Speaker 1: Zeke's not, even though he's running efficient in his first
Speaker 1: four games. I don't judge it because the reason I said,
Speaker 1: give the whole, not only the running back, but the
Speaker 1: whole offense. When have this offense been fully intact since
Speaker 1: training camp started? When it has, I'm gonna tell you
Speaker 1: when they was fully intact, they were zekeless. But they
Speaker 1: were fully intact when they got on the plane. After
Speaker 1: the first practice, guys started missing practice. So when have
Speaker 1: they been twenty two strong? Not none? So it takes
Speaker 1: a game of live bullets for everybody to be Yeah,
Speaker 1: it takes a game, right, So now you got one game. Okay,
Speaker 1: this don't work. This does work. So we got Kellen
Speaker 1: Moore working all of a sudden, Keller Moore by the
Speaker 1: second game. Okay, yeah, we got this by the third game, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: this really works. We know how to that's one of
Speaker 1: a different formation. That's bunch over here. That's take two
Speaker 1: three tight ends and put him in. You see what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Now he's getting live bullets. So by the
Speaker 1: fourth game, you roll and you know who you are.
Speaker 1: You just hope by that fourth game you ain't two
Speaker 1: and two or one in three or and four. I
Speaker 1: bet Kellen Moore would like ze to stow his coordinating career.
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you. If I was him. I'd be
Speaker 1: I'd be sitting out front with Miss Maryland every day
Speaker 1: waiting on missus Jones, Like, Hey, y'all got me this
Speaker 1: new gig. I appreciate it. That a new paycheck, But
Speaker 1: don't I need this man on the team. Yeah, on
Speaker 1: the field. Yeah, open at night? Thank you? How wild
Speaker 1: would it be? This is just the fantasy world that
Speaker 1: we can live in. Here we go, How wild would
Speaker 1: it be? You know, this is a show that we're
Speaker 1: recording at nine thirty am Central Time today, five o'clock
Speaker 1: this afternoon, reports start coming out. Zeke Elliott signed his
Speaker 1: new contract. Tomorrow. You walk into at and T Stadium,
Speaker 1: he's there, he's there, head just twice as big because
Speaker 1: you don't gonna put it in the head shot of Zeke.
Speaker 1: You know, Oh, Corey Miller are in game production. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Have y'all seen the meme that's going around It says
Speaker 1: Zeke spotted at what a burger? Wow, it's like twice
Speaker 1: as big as Zeke, but he's got the same hair
Speaker 1: in the same beard that it's not him. It's pretty
Speaker 1: amazing that show, But like that really shocks me. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell you, I'm gonna tell you that was good.
Speaker 1: That was good breaking news. That was that's fire. Speaking
Speaker 1: of bringing backs, you see that Rod Smith got into
Speaker 1: the end zone yesterday. I didn't watch any of the game.
Speaker 1: You watched the game. I'm watched parts of the game
Speaker 1: and we talked about Daniel Jones. This kid, what did
Speaker 1: you see? Are you This kid took a sack. I
Speaker 1: mean they land blasted it. Shout out rod Smith, battle congratulation.
Speaker 1: Yeah and yeah, touchdown. The ball popped her now right,
Speaker 1: they recovered it and he in the next place. He's
Speaker 1: just dropped back just to smooth man through a perfect fade.
Speaker 1: It wasn't for a touchdown before him to get up
Speaker 1: off his back and just dropped back Man with just
Speaker 1: real smooth and just They say he's got poise in
Speaker 1: the pocket and he's not scared, So I'm cliff mentality.
Speaker 1: He's playing with the coach Duke that is who Eli
Speaker 1: was coached by. Yes, and that same mentality they talked
Speaker 1: about during the draft was that that's why the Giants
Speaker 1: were so interested in him, because you look at someone
Speaker 1: like Eli Manning. The man's never missed a game besides
Speaker 1: the time that they got benched. We're all there for that,
Speaker 1: but it's that pois. Yeah, and I'm telling you this kid,
Speaker 1: this kid, it's doing well. And when you're playing New York,
Speaker 1: it's only two stages. That's bigger than Dallas. That's New
Speaker 1: York and that's California. And you can play in New
Speaker 1: York under that fire. They're gonna they're gonna be crying
Speaker 1: for that boy. Eli come out of the whole old
Speaker 1: and two and old and three. They're gonna be crying
Speaker 1: for that boy. He's got about two games and the
Speaker 1: thing way way above five hundred. By the time mid
Speaker 1: season rolls around, they're probably gonna they gotta get it.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm up. And then Washington didn't look bad,
Speaker 1: case Ken didn't look bad. But that running back geist
Speaker 1: is some pronouncing him and that kid, uh what's the
Speaker 1: kid names? Jesus, I'm telling you. And you have the
Speaker 1: first two games of the year. Yeah, Giants, you can
Speaker 1: count out the red Skins. But if they defense come
Speaker 1: come to play like I think it is, and they
Speaker 1: have a running game, it don't matter whose quarterback. As
Speaker 1: long as you don't throw interception, game's gonna be tight.
Speaker 1: And if we play our brand of football, we're looking
Speaker 1: at a three point difference in the fourth quarter, and
Speaker 1: it's now who makes the biggest mistake. So we have
Speaker 1: to beat the red Skins. We are to beat the Giant.
Speaker 1: We cannot play with the folks. And here's the thing
Speaker 1: you just brought this up. That's the style of Cowboys football.
Speaker 1: You keep it close to the fourth quarter. Yeah, grind
Speaker 1: it out. And are you willing to go into games
Speaker 1: with that mentality with the rookie running back in the
Speaker 1: fourth quarter to try to grind your games out? And
Speaker 1: do you trust a rookie running back to not miss
Speaker 1: a blocking assignment? And you know what? Healthy mo Nah?
Speaker 1: And you know what, I normally could say the cream
Speaker 1: on top, but I don't know if it's cream or
Speaker 1: if it's sour cream. But your kicker, with the rookie
Speaker 1: running back and your kicker, this guy's never been never
Speaker 1: had the faith. It's hard to if you were out
Speaker 1: of camp, it's hard to have the faith watching this year,
Speaker 1: I mean maybe I hope he straightens it out. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell you something, and and and and and and
Speaker 1: I'm stopping this. I ain't about He's a great guy, No,
Speaker 1: be a great football player. I'm tired of great guys.
Speaker 1: Oh he's a great round. Car is a great guy.
Speaker 1: But can you play football? Can you kick that ball?
Speaker 1: When they say it seemed like they say fifty yards,
Speaker 1: he's like, oh yeah, they say thirty five, he'd be like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, I mean can't make this. He's turned
Speaker 1: from cream cream real quick. You brought up Alfred Mark.
Speaker 1: Do you think if Zeke's not here, who's your starting
Speaker 1: running They split a lot more time between Tony Pollard
Speaker 1: and Alfred Morris. So you think Jackson out of it? No? No,
Speaker 1: I don't think Darry Checks is out of it. I
Speaker 1: think you're gonna see him more in special teams. Kind
Speaker 1: of feel that role from Smith a little. Okay, let's
Speaker 1: say if we Zeke list, you're saying there's because they
Speaker 1: ain't even to keep Zeke. They keeping they're keeping a
Speaker 1: fullback for keeping the fullback. So who is your running yesterday? Yeah?
Speaker 1: So now so you you Zeke list? Are you with Zeke? Okay?
Speaker 1: Which one is? Let's go start. Let's start with Zeke.
Speaker 1: Let's just say, Zeke, who's your running back? They're gonna
Speaker 1: keep three rights? Were back in the three, So you
Speaker 1: got Zeke, you got You're keeping Pollard for sure, you're
Speaker 1: keeping pol And then who is it? Is it Marris?
Speaker 1: Is it Darius? Oh? This is hard because I think
Speaker 1: it was going into camp. I think it was Darius's
Speaker 1: job to lose. I thought he was going to get
Speaker 1: the first team rest and he didn't even get the
Speaker 1: first team was wound upon? What third team? Yeah? So
Speaker 1: now you tell us, now who do you think? Just
Speaker 1: who do you think? Theoretically? I mean, there's no right
Speaker 1: or wrong answer, because I don't know anybody even know.
Speaker 1: The only reason I say Alfred Morris is because they
Speaker 1: like that veteran trust. They trust He's been here, he
Speaker 1: knows the system. You're talking about two games where he
Speaker 1: has performed. Well, you look back at the twenty seventeen season,
Speaker 1: they opened again to the Giant surprise, surprise, and Alfred
