I wouldn't make that choice - but it's not absurd. Its not absurd. But if given the chance to vote for a Cowboys player or a Penn State player, 100% of the philly faithful will go penn state. A very close comparison is going to be a dramatic landslide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabbs4u Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I should go Guice being the only RB to have rushed for 2,000 yards like AP, but I'll go Zeke. The RB who has actually produced at a All Pro Level for multiple years not in his 30's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matts4313 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 @Danger Quote Ezekiel Elliott is best running back prospect since Adrian Peterson http://www.espn.com/nfl/draft2016/insider/story/_/id/15146365/ezekiel-elliott-ohio-state-buckeyes-best-nfl-draft-running-back-prospect-adrian-peterson-oklahoma-sooners Quote Ezekiel Elliott may not be Todd Gurley, but he also may be the best and most complete running back prospect to come out of college since Adrian Peterson. And that will make him very tempting for teams in need of a running back drafting in the first round.https://www.profootballfocus.com/news/draftezekiel-elliott-is-the-most-complete-rb-prospect-since-adrian-peterson Quote "If he stays healthy he's going to be a (Adrian) Peterson-type back." This particular scout isn't the first from the NFL to draw the same comparison. An AFC running backs coach told College Football 24/7's Sources Tell Usmuch the same thing last month, and noted a similar reason: the well-rounded completeness of Elliott's game.http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000656193/article/scout-ezekiel-elliott-could-be-the-next-adrian-peterson Quote Elliott, in my opinion, is the best back to come along for the better part of a decade — since Adrian Peterson in 2007. https://saturdaytradition.com/ohio-state-football/zeke-prospect-peterson/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiltman Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 22 minutes ago, Matts4313 said: Zeke 131 YPG over 3 years Barkley 127 YPG over 1 year Zeke was the most talent RB since Peterson as well. Even if you consider Barkley more talented, its not "by far". Its "by a little bit". "By far" would be like comparing Barkley to Carlos Hyde @Texas_OutLaw7 => You should have put this one in the Redskins forum. All these Philly fans, who hate Dallas, are going to pick the Penn State all star. Bad choice homie. Barks will only get better as they give him a OL to play behind. I know you've beleaguered the Cowboys line as not that good. But they have been for the vast majority of Zeke's time, a good to very good OL. Also there is growth upwards too, I think Saquon can be a HoF level, generational talent. So Zeke can still be a great player, but Barkley ascends further. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Giants fans existed, it'd be more of a competition. You guys argue with us so it makes it fun. I think generationally a lot of us grew up in a weird time when all of you sucked, We saw Eli win two rings, but played terribly against us. Hard to really strike fear there. So it ends up with things like I hate dallas, but love them for the silly stuff they do. I think the team I hate the most straight up is probably the Saints weirdly enough.

I honestly dont care if Barks wins. He is a super talented RB and had a tremendous rookie season. I just have a feeling that due to this forum, this is going to be an 80/20 vote when the players are closer to 53/47 depending on your preference. I would just to be more deliberate in where you post the threads. For example, Left Tackle should be in the Giants forum, they dont have a bone to pick in that debate.

One other thing to consider is that here on FF Giants fans don't exist, so that will balance out the poll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cowboys have been dog poop pass blocking. And weve been injured quite a bit. But I would 100% agree that we are better run blockers than the Giants OL. Of course, Barkley was used a lot in the passing game to counter the Giants crap OL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
