RB Ezekiel Elliott (All B1G, All-American, National Champion, Pro Bowl, All Pro, Dallas Cowboys)

2 more fumbles tonight... is it me or does it seem like he's really losing steam as a pro? When I watch he just doesnt seem to have the same pop and explosiveness

Big time, Zeke is way down from his first couple of years. Not sure what the issue is but he looks lost out there at most times, hope he gets it back on track for his sake and the sake of my fantasy team haha.

I dont like saying this because he's still a big time athlete... However I thought after 2014 he gained some weight going into 2015 and wasn't the same breakaway no one close to him sprinter. Then it seemed like he got diced up again before his rookie season and he blew the doors off. Then to me he's slowly hasn't kept himself in that ridiculous condition and he's not quite been the same.

Again it's kind of rude to say because I'm not in great shape and he is compared to almost everyone. However I think being closer to his 2014 playing weight would really help him.

Man, Zeke looks like a shell of his former self. I know the Dallas offense is a shit show without Dak, but he looks slow...like no burst. Is he too heavy? Too much mileage? RBs tend to have a pretty short shelf life and he's seen a lot of usage his first 4+ years.

O-line decimated as well.

I will not post what I believe the real reason is.

He's going to find himself out of the league soon if he doesn't rediscover his old work ethic. He's looked overweight since last year and it's zapped his explosiveness. Maybe LeBron can get in his ear about the importance of taking care of his body

The Dallas Cowboys Have a Zeke Elliott Problem

The Cowboys simply aren't getting what they paid for when they handed Elliott a six-year, $90 million contract with more than $50 million guaranteed last September.
