Never realized how little Ekeler is.

He somehow gets away with 5'10" on Google and the NFL site. Found a draft scout that had him at 5' 7.5".  That seems much more accurate. 

Still 3 inches taller than Kyler Murray.

2 years ago Chiefs fans were thinking how many SuperBowls in how many years... now they've got to deal with a division that in 2-3 years could vie for the toughest in the league

[Jive Turkey 12568]

that should just about do it.

Meh, that would've been true 2-3 years ago, but now it seems lots of teams are going for it on 4th and short.

Ekler winning a lot of fantasy leagues in the 4th quarter.

I welcome you to look at the 2021 Cowboys game threads for the caveman views on 4th downs and 2 point conversion discussions.

lots of idiots in sportsmedia, but Bill Barnwell isn't the one you want to go after.

Raiders were a very underserving 3-0. It evened out tonight.

The Cowboys (my team) are one of the least innovative teams in the NFL. McCarthy does whatever Jerry wants. There is literally an elevator from Jerry's suite to field level. The Cowboys haven't had a coach with balls since Parcells (ironically leaving after Romo botched the kick to fail on a 4th down attempt).

And what is the trend among young and up and coming coaches?  As far as protecting the defenses, I wonder if defenses like the confidence of being able to stop the other side in exchange for giving their team a chance to score more points

I may have noticed it earlier this year, but tonight there were camera angles with him next to lineman where he looked like someone’s son in a uniform.

He gave me the blowout of the week, plus helped my total points for the season, which were awful after my atrocious week 2.

Picked up Ekeler with the 11th pick in round and and then grabbed a guy named Tyreke Hill with the 2nd pick in round 2. 
 

It was a good weekend from those two.

Wait they are in a lightning delay? In a domed stadium?

The original plans had a live lightning bolt as a feature. Guess that was problematic.
