Was he or was he not the best player on a team that went to the AFC Championship game with Blake Bortles?

What do any of them have to do with Zeke? Henry didnt get paid long term because he is a 1-dimensional back coming off his 1st truly elite season as a starter. Zeke is a 3-level back as he can run, catch, and block. Gurley got cut because he has an arthritic knee. That doesn't apply to Zeke, as Zeke is one of the most durable players in the league and is highly consistent.
It's 2020 and we're still relying on this snake.Cowbrahs
Sean Lee, LB: Re-signing with the Cowboys on a one-year, $4.5 million deal that includes $2 million guaranteed, reported Rapoport and Garafolo
Why are yall guaranteeing any money to White Sam Jackson from Unbreakable
4.5 mill
This dude should make league minimum dude will play 1 quarter next season and end up in traction
This is what happens when you're two top 40 pick LBs are inconsistent, injury prone and poor leaders.
I'm telling yall it's going under the radar how poor drafting has been lately.

He was on a better team last year...and?
My point is NFL is YEAR TO YEAR. he is NOT a player you build around.

If I remember correctly bortles played good during that run while Antonio Brown gashed Ramsey in the divisional round, and amendola and cooks outplayed him in the AFC championship.Was he or was he not the best player on a team that went to the AFC Championship game with Blake Bortles?

DB is important but they can play lights out and it still wont matter in most cases. See byron jones.

Rams failed because of the QB
Gurley had a horrible year compared to Zeke and his team STILL had a better record. What does that tell you about RBs
Bro.. u just made my point..lol
He gonna command so much money and then what a team supposed to do? Sign him and then what?
He just a freaking DB

If I remember correctly, Gurley outplayed Zeke by far in the divisional round game as did CJ AndersonIf I remember correctly bortles played good during that run while Antonio Brown gashed Ramsey in the divisional round, and amendola and cooks outplayed him in the AFC championship.

Bro u really wanna say that? With our fans on here its been Garrett gotta go...Garret gotta go.. but then yall blame our best players? Which is it?
I trust Zeke and his abilities more than any player on this team..and certainly more than playing under Garrett and company awful philosophy in coaching

I'm not sure what Hurley and anderson outplaying Zeke has to do with anything. If anything you're refuting your own point, the rams beat us because they shredded us on the ground. Just this past playoffs alone showed how value the running game can be. The titans made it to the AFC championship riding henry, and the 49ers made it to the superbowl riding their committee of rb's. They beat Aaron Rodgers by only completing 6 passes. Even in 2019, the patriots beats the rams primarily on the ground. The idea that the running game cant win has to be put to rest.

Breh, I love Zeke. Hes my favorite player on this team by far.
With that said, look at the current state of our defense. There is not 1 single player on that side of the ball that I have 0 worry about. Not 1.
If you told me we wouldve selected Watt, Thornhill, Chris Jones, over Taco, Trysten, and Jaylon, I wouldnt mind giving Zeke his bread...

Are u serious right now?
My point is:
1. a. Flabby and sick RB off the street outran our RB
2. You brought up AB (a top-10 receiver ever) torching Ramsey (he didnt, he torched Bouye) in a game that the Jags won as a negative towards him
3. Our defense is TRASH. Absolute Trash. We wont win anything with the roster as is.
4. Corners are more valuable than Backs in this league. Its why they are paid more on an AAV than running backs. Byron Jones just got more guaranteed money than Zeke and he isnt close to being as good
