                  Yep... when he started doing that "feed me" gesture... or whatever the fukk you call it. It's who he is.

                  Now feed his wallet.

                    if you are a Cowboy you should know that Zeke is the only talented player you guys have on the offensive side of the ball.

                    Without Zeke yall would be 4-12 or 3-13

                        JJ. Wake up and smell the coffee. NO running back is the entire team of ANY team. the NFL is a passing league, NOT a running league. RB's are the most over-paid players in the league.

                          Knock off the "Politically Correct" Bull S**t. Sam is right. Elliott has a much greater chance of being shot in some after ours brawl that people like him love to get into. How many non-black players have been shot?

                            Whites aren’t athletic enough to be professional players any longer, therefore it is much more likely a non-white player gets shot. Theres only a few white boys left in the major sports. Wait until blacks start playing hockey, it’ll look like the nba. Blacks just have superior genes

                                They should give him 2 year extension at the most
                                RBs break down faster than any other position, very short lifespans

                                  And with less than $50,000 to his name.

                                    not sure what the highest paid rb makes but zeke has played 3 seasons in which 2 were full seasons. in those 2 full seasons he led the league in carries and rushing yds not to mention he had 77 receptions last yr. in all 3 seasons he led the league in yds per game he is special and considering that dak isnt brady and not the qb yet, if ever he will be, that you can solely rely on to put the game on his back, then zeke becomes the most important player on that team. Id be willing to pay zeke big money before I paid it to dak and especially cooper both of whom I like but besides the notion that people think u can just plug any average rb into the backfield and be successful that only works if u have a great qb and dak isnt great yet.

                                      Great rb but no need to give him an extension now. Let him sit out training camp and return for wk 1 of regular season. Cowboys are severely overrated. They have no head coach, a mediocre qb and an owner that should be 6 feet under, not trying to build a roster.

                                      This is a .500 ball club but at least they brought Witten back so he can pad his stats to try and make a case for HoF(which he doesn’t deserve).

                                        If they don't pay him he will be very motivated to play this season. A player who plays for free always plays better than one that has been paid.

                                          Zeke is a great player and I like him and I agree he’s probably the best player on the team

                                          But holding out when you have 2 full years left on your rookie deal? That’s a punk move

                                          You can threaten to sit out one year like leveon and sometimes that works. But sitting out 2 years? His career would be over

                                            I really believe that Jerry and his sons should call zeke’s bluff on this and dare him to sit the next 2 seasons.

                                            Let’s see how many teams are willing to throw big money at zeke once he’s been completely out of football for two full years

                                              the rookie deal is 4 yrs right, this yr is the 4th yr or is that 9 mil I see some kind of thing they did as a 5th yr

                                                2 full years are left on zeke’s deal

                                                Holding out after being in the league for just 3 seasons and having 2 full years left on your rookie deal is absurd. If nothing else, jerry should say no just as a matter of setting precedent.

                                                The league can’t have these knuckleheads holding out when they have multiple years left on their deals

                                                  Dak is nothing without a running game, we saw that when Zeke was suspended, Gurley and Bell set the market, they know what he's going to get anyways, no reason not to pay him. The real issue is paying Dak, who will never win a super bowl, not Zeke.

                                                      Holding out after being in the league for just 3 seasons and having 2 full years left on your rookie deal is absurd. If nothing else, jerry should say no just as a matter of setting precedent.

                                                      The league can’t have these knuckleheads holding out when they have multiple years left on their deals
                                                      I think there is a 5th yr option but its about principle. he's not the first to do this and if u were on ur job and u were the best worker and had the most production amongst ur fellow co-workers but still was contracted for another yr or 2 yrs to be paid less than them and in some cases twice as less then I think youd be trying to have a meeting with your boss on restructuring that contract also

                                                        Rams already extended Gurley and Elliot has been just as good and he's more durable. Elliot has off the field issues but Gurley had health issues and he still got the extension.

                                                            Cowboys paying zeke would be one of the worst moves ever. This dude is one white girl away from another off the field incident. He can't help himself and it will end up costing the cowboys more in the end. Let him go and get another one. There are some players where their libido has more control over them then their future and Zeke is one of them dudes that just can't be helped.

Theres only a few white boys left in the major sports. Wait until blacks start playing hockey, it’ll look like the nba. Blacks just have superior genes

As a rb, you have to get your money as early as possible, as a 5 year rookie contract is a horrible deal for that position. especially if you are good. its not a guaranteed contract so if you suck you aren't getting the money anyway. the cowboys are not a playoff threat without zeke. every team doesn't need a great rb to win, but this team as structured does.
