| 0:00.0 | You're listening to the upper hand fantasy podcast now. Here's your host, Faraz Sadiqi and Zach Rizudo. |
| 0:09.4 | God boys, your God boys, your good boy Zeke. Yeah, he got released. It's the end of an era. |
| 0:18.5 | The God boys picked Zeke in the top five or top ten of that you whenever he was drafted. |
| 0:25.0 | He was fourth overall, fourth overall. So, you know, one of the, you know, one of the most popular |
| 0:31.6 | God boys, I think, you know, listen, like God boys are a historic franchise, but I think Zeke has been, |
| 0:37.6 | you know, is up there in one of the most popular God boys, you know, of all time. So, |
| 0:44.2 | you know, good for him had a great career, you know, the wheels were falling off, you know, |
| 0:48.2 | we kind of, we've seen that coming for a couple of years now. But, but yeah, this is it, Zach. |
| 0:55.1 | How you feeling? I would love how we're talking about like his career is over. We'll see if he |
| 0:59.0 | signs anywhere. I'm not sure he will. I'm not, yeah, he'll sign. I'm not sure who's in the market |
| 1:03.6 | for running back with exactly his skill set, which is just pretty much at the goal line. I think |
| 1:08.9 | his numbers were a bit inflated, definitely down the stretch. He had 12 touchdowns last year, |
| 1:12.8 | which you wouldn't think that's how many touchdowns scored if you just looked at him on the film. |
| 1:17.6 | But we know how he got his touchdowns. I just pretty much delivered him to the goal line |
| 1:21.6 | and gave it to him as token of appreciation, you know, for being a cowboy for so long. His |
| 1:25.8 | career stats with Dallas, he had over 10,000 yards and 80 touchdowns. So that's very good. |
| 1:30.2 | That's really good by any standard, definitely. But like you said, the wheels are falling off. |
| 1:35.1 | It hurt a little bit as a cowboys fan. I was thinking about it. When I first started |
| 1:40.2 | truly following the cowboys, he was the first running back that I really was like, yeah, |
| 1:43.9 | we have a good running back. Obviously, the Marco Murray was there before, but I was |
| 1:46.8 | way too young still then. So I didn't really care about it. But first running back, he was there |
| 1:50.6 | for seven years. I can't believe it was seven years ago. But this was the right move to make. |
