Remember when yall wanted Dalvin cook? Well, we got him and they won't put him on the field. IMOP because they don't want to upset Zeke. Dalvin Cook can't be any worse than Zeke, and he might well be an improvement....possibly a substantial improvement. IF he does prove to be a significant upgrade now they've REALLY got a problem.... a HIGHLY disgruntled Zeke relegated to the bench or practice squad.... and he ain't going to like that one iota. No reason to throw him out there this Sunday and to get a win... The 49ers are done. I wouldn’t be shocked if your boyz won.

Wrong.
Nothing is wrong. It'll be alright.
who're they playing this week?

He would have been an improvement....but Jackson makes him special again...make no mistake I do agree he's significantly more productive and valuable with Jackson at QB. Defenses now have to plan for 2 runners and 3-4 WRs on any given play.

funny the crew on Get Up roasted all the reasons JJ gave as to why he didn't try and get Henry. They talked about salary cap,O-line, game plan, and everything else.
The bottom line Henry helps all NFL teams his season this year isn't any different then his other years. He is well on his way for a second 2000 yard season and 70% of his yards are after first contact so no o-line doesn't mean anything to henry, no game plan he makes his own. This is a 30 year old man doing this the same has he has been doing.
Get Up was good this morning Horse hockey, if the back gets hit in the backfield he has little chance to do much with the ball, go ahead and look how far Henry is across the line before first contact, I bet you will be surprised, plus the defense has to worry about another guy that can carry the ball a little, Lamar is something else. It is also a well known fact that you do not sign 29 - 30 year old backs to large contract, they just fall off a cliff, now Henry so far is the exception to that rule but there was no way for the Cowboys to know that, besides that with no line he would not be near as good, I do wish they had signed him but I do understand why they did not. well i guess they should have an O - line, & a QB that offers some type of threat all on Jerruh

Elliot is done, one of the shortest meaningful careers ever, and Jerry should of never gotten a gold jacket. Yes it should be taken away!  Elliot had about an average length of productive years for a NFL back. 40th all time in yds with 9019 career yds. Lots of similar guys around him who were pretty good for a few years. Issue is he has entered the DONE phase of his career. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2024/10/full-27893-246520-img_0152.png)

Wonder why he has been a free agent since he is the greatest, why did all the other teams pass on him ? If all these great sports analyst knew so much why did they wait til after the fact to say all these things, just curious, they say hind sight is 20 / 20. I do wish they had of signed him but I seriously doubt we would be talking about him the same way we are now. Kamp, LOTS of sports analyst WERE saying that he should be signed... that he was, BY FAR, the best free agent running back available last spring. He did get 1200 yards last year on a pretty bad Titans team.... you think any of the cowboys backs are going to get 1200 this year?? He would be lucky to get 800 yards on the Cowboys team

And there is lots of ball left to play, Henry is only 6 games in, 11 more to go not incl playoffs, if I were the Ravens I would pull the reins back on Henry a little, they will need him big time in Dec / Jan.

He is averaging 20 carries a game, that is not terrible but again, he is 30 years old, you think he can carry the rock 400 times in a season incl play offs ? No doubt he is a fenom but dam, thats a lot of head banging.

Henry is still a beast! He spends 250k a year on fitness and is on the Brady diet.

You can't apply standard logic to the cowboys cap, because they're in stupid-land with Jerry the moron running the show. I mean they could have paid Dak $53M a year and Henry $8M a year and it would be the same as $60M for Dak and $1M for Elliot. Or they could have fired Dak back in March, paid Henry, kept our DL that we let go, signed a pair of OL, drafted a QB 2-3 years ago like I said to numerous times, and still been way better off than paying mediocre Dak $60M and having nobody around him. Better off both now and in the future

Walter Payton, for years, had no OL and had to make his own holes. Sometimes people forget what a real beast can do. Henry is a beast and the Ewok aint.
