Anyone Benching Zeke Tonight?

Rumors of him sitting (so wondering how much he really plays), Pollard's relative success, and vs. Saints D.
Really considering benching Zeke in this must-win game for me. Might start Pollard instead.
Other RB's are Conner, Najee, Boston Scott, Dillon (bye)

I thought zeke came out this week and said nobody has approached him to sit and rest up?

I’m in the same boat. Trying to decide between 4 running backs for 3 spots in standard scoring. Who ya got?
Zeke
Ingram
Clyde
Saquon
Person in my league dropped Saquon and Clyde when they were on IR.

Correct, and Jerry said he plans on Zeke playing a lot. But frankly, outside of goal line touches, he's sucked. His fantasy points hide his ineffectiveness over the last few weeks
I fear the Saints won't keep up and they'll pull zeke by halftime.

They need to just let pollard and play. Trying to decide between Pollard and Ingram in my flex.

Same, leaning Ingram just due to the guaranteed touches

I certainly had hoped Zeke would sit. I think I’ll still start Zeke over Pollard and hope he continues to fall into the endzone.

Started Pollard, feel pretty good about it...certainly better than I'd feel if I had started Zeke.

Pollard would have been absolutely nasty without that one run though. Owning both, It’s just not a good situation right now. Pollard clearly looks more explosive. Zeke looks hobbled, but Zeke is still playing 2/3 of snaps and gets all goal-line work.

I cannot understand why Dallas keeps giving Zeke so many touches, he is clearly not right. If they'd rested him for the last two games, the results are likely the same - two wins, but a recovered Zeke.

Zeke is good for some hard inside runs for short yardage and goal line carries but he kinda sucks outside of that. Pollard is a night and day better running back. And that’s not recency bias either it’s been that way for a while even with a fully healthy zeke.

Zeke still plays because he's a way better runner inside the tackles and his pass protection is much better.
I love Pollard and agree he's way more explosive. He needs to be a part of every gameplan, even if Zeke is 100%. But I don't think the Cowboys want Pollard being a workhorse. So Pollard will likely continue to be a flex dependent on big plays to hit.

He can barely move, there is a noticeable hitch in his step. He’s ran 71 times for 244 yards his past 6 games. He’s hurting more than helping at this point don’t ya think

I feel like zeke still plays so much because of that big arse contract they’re kinda married to.
