He looks powerful and yes, he might be averaging 3+per carry but he never really breaks out. He seems to have small field vision and never really gets the big runs.
Tell me you dont know anything about football without telling me you dont know anything about football. A bunch of these runs are late in the game when Mcdaniels shit offense is already down big late and he's just running Zamir to end the game.The defense knows Jimmy is handing the ball off to Zamir 3 times in a row. Kind of hard to run like that. Its not until he was on the field with AOC late in the season when the defense didnt know what was coming. His first 2 years as a starter is going to be better than Josh Jacobs first 2 years no doubt in my mind.
His line doesn't give him anything so he can't run downhill. He has to shift his stance to find an opening, which is why his YPC is so low. He has good power and decent speed, not the most explosive but he's a solid back. Better than Josh Jacbos
You can see early in the season…he wasn’t able to establish a rhythm. When you only get 1-2 carries, you just can’t find the flow of the game. Once he got a chance to consistently carry the ball, the skillset showed itself.
He's explosive when there's a hole to run through, but he's definitely not gonna create his own running lanes or improvise to find one. He'd be an amazing system runningback, but not a superstar by any stretch. Definitely need to keep him for a 2 back attack. He'd need to be rb2 for sure
Yall tripping .. I’m not against drafting a running back but it’s not a need .. this O LINE WAS terrible and our fullback was bad too. A lot of these play they gave up on and the line got pushed back. On top of that van rotten is fucking terrible.
Don't know why everyone is bashing on zamir, when he finally got the full workload he was averaging 4.7ypc. Jacobs this past year, 3.45. Yeah he's not as shifty as Jacobs, but he's just as powerful and is gonna get there with more reps and hopefully if they bolster the o-line in the draft. Not saying he's gonna be 2022 Jacobs but he could very easily be a sneaky breakout this upcoming season
People crying about Jacobs bc Zamir highlights aren’t great. I agree, he’s not amazing but the Raiders O-line wasn’t great either. Jacobs averaged 3.45 ypc and Zamir behind the same line averaged 4.34… just sayin
I got faith in White, my mindset about the decision to let go of JJ is cause we are gonna focus on more passing this yr. We will get another RB in the draft but our run game is gonna consist of smash and dash.
He will be alot better in the zone blocking scheme but we still need to draft a rb. I like jordan from Louisville. Also noticed Parham, James, and #70 getting bullied alot. I hope James gets better causy I did not want to see him brought back.
@@UnreliableAdvice4all I considered it highlights compared to jj. He is not on his level. He would need bigger holes to make the close to the same impact
This is what I've been telling everyone and nobody is listening! Sure if the o line gives him a hole to run through he may take off, but if not he just runs into his blockers and goes down! He doesn't try to make ppl miss like Josh Jacobs
def gonna miss jj forsure but lets give zeus a chance, he got potential its not the best but if they can polish him this off season get him right best believe he gonna be nasty once he gets more reps in
I mean it was his first season getting more reps than he has ever gotten he can clean that up 🤷🏽♂️ hes only going to get better with more reps now being the starter
I’m talking fundamentals of the running back. Keep your legs churning when you get hit, bad ball security is a habit not easily broken and explosiveness as runner just is. Hope I’m wrong not rooting against him. He looks like a power runner to me. I’m also worried about predictability. Like how we were. It’s one thing to take what we want when we want but when they’re stacked in the box on us and we’re running anyway, that’s not a recipe for success..
@Nunbutsports i hope he does since I am a Raiders fan, but I also have him in fantasy lol. But from what I have seen, he runs too high in his pads and isn't very shifty. He can def learn to keep his pads low, and he is big and athletic enough to not need to be too shifty, but we shall see. O-line and Minschew/AOCs play will be key to not have a stacked box
People comparing jj to zamir as if jj has been productive, which he hasnt. Jj did HORRIBLE this year stat wise. What needs work is our o line, without a good o line a rb cant be productive. Jj and zamir are also 2 different kinds of backs. Zamir is a power runner, jj isnt. JJ is also more developed because hes been in the league longer, so of course jj is gonna look better. Give Zeus a whole season like we did with jj. I have faith in the kid
He has no awareness at all from what it looks like, he runs right into the pile with no juke moves like JJ. He’s a power back that try’s to run you over and gets no where but with more reps he can become a good RB
Don't sleep on the resigning of Abdullah. He's a fast back with wiggle and toughness. He can also catch the ball. He should have gotten more playing time last season.
lol bro i got my comforter and pillows out. You really think a 31 yo RB whose best season was his rookie year where he had less than 600 rush yards is a threat?
I listened to all the Kyren hate last year he’s slow he doesn’t break free terrible vision seems like a lot of the same talk around this guy so I will be sending 3rds anywhere I can for him maybe even late 2nds
As I’m watching this .. this is supposed to be to be a highlights but they’re some bad runs .. and it’s not even because of Zamir .. this OLINE was terrible and gave up on plays .. and he still made something out of nothing!
oh gosh most of his big gains were when the raiders were pretty much outta contention… pure garbage time stats. terrible vision, and that clean hit by the buffalo cb made him lose the ball… If this is our #1 going into 2024 we’re in big trouble. He might be the worst HB weve had since Trent Richardson 😬
Win lose or tie Raiders and Raider nation until I die!! No matter who the fuck the running back is if your a long life Raider fan like you say then you support anyone AP brings in!! Just another wannabe fan
I’m sorry but Andre James is a terrible center .. especially when it comes to the run game. Can’t believe the stats actually show he had a great season. On every play he gets pushed back .. he’s terrible in the run game.
For the comparison, i dont see the elusiveness,agilty, tackle breaking, pass catching or vision. I dont see rb1 at all unless he's stepped it up this year
@@chefstirston really? Like I don’t know the chiefs are our biggest rivals 😂 and I’m not happy with just beating them twice a year, if your satisfaction is beating the chiefs and that’s it, well you haven’t been watching this team long enough. I want that ring! This dude is not elite. We need an elusive back, with power. Maybe he gets better this year we will see.
@@chefstirston 😂😂 see that’s what’s wrong with you, your notes are all twisted! How long have you been twisting peoples statements?? ZAMIR WHITE hasn’t proved a damn thing, he hasn’t even had enough carries to prove anything, I’m just saying he is not elite, and I don’t see the talent.
Stupid to not resign Jacobs. Once we knew we didn't have to pay Jimmy G, we should have paid JJ. White is a one trick pony. He has zero vision. Number one key a back must have.
@thomas2104 What? MF, you don't know me. I spoke the truth. You don't let your best offensive weapon(not named AD) go who will make your QB's life easier for a 4 game stretch. Sorry if you don't like it, but it's the truth. He was also a Great Leader in the locker room.
@austinraider4123 You can take that BSPN crap back where you found it. You pay your best players, period! JJ doesn't have the wear and tear normal 25 yr old backs have at this stage. He wasn't a starter at Alabama. And dude, stop listening to the BS about running backs. People try to make the point that the quiefs won the SB with a 7th rd pick. I bet they wouldn't have with Sam Darnold at QB! All RB's aren't built the same. They're guys in this league that want to be HOF players. JJ is one of them. A running back don't take any more punishment than a high volume TE or WR. A collision is a collision. So, this we don't pay RB crap is dumb!
He looks powerful and yes, he might be averaging 3+per carry but he never really breaks out. He seems to have small field vision and never really gets the big runs.

Mann i been waiting on this thank you bro 💪
Such a goat for this man, thank you. As a Raider fan and a Josh Jacobs fan this really helps me cope lmao
We need a better backup to pair up
We got Wifi Willie part two here people!

hes faster than jacobs also
Man we need to draft a RB
Great video
Zeus got in his groove the last 3 games🦾😎🏴☠️
Now that JJ is gone, Zues will need to produce 1K yards this season at the very least.
He’s the best 2-3 yard back of the year

He will be alot better in the zone blocking scheme but we still need to draft a rb. I like jordan from Louisville. Also noticed Parham, James, and #70 getting bullied alot. I hope James gets better causy I did not want to see him brought back.
Me either but we got too many holes and Parham isnt ready yet.
Dylan Laube is a sexy pick.
He clearly is our third and short back we need a shifty catch out the backfield type back to complement the both of them
We got our guy. Dylan Laube.
We still have ameer abdullah
With the O line we got now he will be able to have more explosive plays the o line is horrible
He a power back we need a fast guy in there to balance the run game kind of like the Lino’s with Gibbs and Montgomery
For someone with all that muscle he never runs nobody over
He mid
Running over players is not advisable if you can chip them and get by..
Life long Raider fan, this is one of sorriest highlight reels I’ve ever seen. Drafting a RB is mandatory 💯
💯
But this wasn't a highlight video. This was every touch he had this season.
@@UnreliableAdvice4all I considered it highlights compared to jj. He is not on his level. He would need bigger holes to make the close to the same impact
I agree, the Raiders better draft a good running back asap or else
This is what I've been telling everyone and nobody is listening! Sure if the o line gives him a hole to run through he may take off, but if not he just runs into his blockers and goes down! He doesn't try to make ppl miss like Josh Jacobs
This is also a Greg van Roten low light video like holy shit he is really bad at run blocking Pff says he is good surprisingly
Man idk. I’m not sold on him. I hope and pray I’m wrong but compared to JJ he is both even close. We are all going to miss JJ.
def gonna miss jj forsure but lets give zeus a chance, he got potential its not the best but if they can polish him this off season get him right best believe he gonna be nasty once he gets more reps in
Raiders need another running back. They should have 2 good backs.
Should Raiders draft a running back? If so, who should they get?
Zamir was thrown in the fire when Josh got injured so he still a learning progress
Learning process? My man has been a running back for the majority of his life there is no learning process.
Ball security is an issue, legs stop when he’s hit and not explosive. Man if this is it we gonna miss JJ.
I agree
Exactly
And still outperformed jj when he became the lead back
I mean it was his first season getting more reps than he has ever gotten he can clean that up 🤷🏽♂️ hes only going to get better with more reps now being the starter

It’s one thing to take what we want when we want but when they’re stacked in the box on us and we’re running anyway, that’s not a recipe for success..
I say he gets more than 1000 yards rushing this season
RBs are easy to find. An average RB will perform at a high level if your Offensive line is elite
Top 5 rb this next year
Zamir is ok. Jacobs is obviously a much better back. But, he is who we have. Not sure why we didn't draft one anyways
When he goes over 1000 I’ll come back to this comment. It’s hard to judge a back that was never given a chance to get in rhythm
@Nunbutsports i hope he does since I am a Raiders fan, but I also have him in fantasy lol. But from what I have seen, he runs too high in his pads and isn't very shifty.

looks like he heated up later in the season. we gotta just let him cook this year.
If this is all we can gather for dude it's obvious not wanting to pay JJ was wrong unless we're drafting a RB which I doubt unless it's very late
We should have signed Barkley or Ekler.
boyyy saquon aint signing wit no Raiders🤣
@@momatmusic Course not he is with the Eagles if you didn't know.
Hell no. You can draft a good RB in like the 4th round in every draft lol.
Took 8 minutes of video for a big run, Vegas a top candidate for last in rushing this year
I’ll be back to see you
He doesn't have a lot of pros, he needs more experience but fixing that fumbling will go a long ways for him

They lied to us boys 😂 homie is trash in 24

they must be JJ fans... very strange
Now is a good time to post Drake London 👀
th-cam.com/video/Tn7CDuba85Q/w-d-xo.html
If the raiders can get the passing game going, he can really thrive off of counters, draws, screens and tosses. He’s got big upside for 2024
This guy is gunna make us realize just how good we had it with JJ. Zamir ain’t it.
UGH that mcdaniels offense was just Fn PUTRID. He was waving the white flag since the 1st quarter. GROSS.
Is it me or does zamir seem to get what is blocked for him?
its you
@@chefstirston thanks I drafted him and hoping for the best. Might pick up Dylan laube as a dynasty handcuff tho.
He's no JJ
No disrepect to zamir but we have to find a running back. Jacobs was a franchise type running back thats what we need.GO RAIDERS!
Hope he steps it up. But we do need a back up. Abdullah is not it
Defenses had zero respect for Jimmy G
Please fo 1 for Rico dowdle
Don't sleep on the resigning of Abdullah. He's a fast back with wiggle and toughness. He can also catch the ball. He should have gotten more playing time last season.

It's been so weird to hear there are Zeus fans. He's not very good at all. Terrible.
Better win percentage as a starter and more yards per carry than jacobs but okay
Dude all I see vs the chiefs is this fucking o line getting pushed back ..
I’m not seeing a lot of agility in the backfield . It likes he live and die with the 1st hole he sees
Um there were a lot of “low lights”.. I like the kid but this had lots of stuffs & short runs.
This just shows you how shitty our O-Line is
JJ was overrated and overpaid. Zamir at 4.5 yards per carry is a steal for what he's paid. And he was a rookie so I expect he will improve.
He suck
Win lose or tie Raiders and Raider nation until I die!! No matter who the fuck the running back is if your a long life Raider fan like you say then you support anyone AP brings in!! Just another wannabe fan
The best highlight was him fumbling
MID asf “he better then Josh jacobs” neverrrrrr👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾 not even close, invest in a RB or let McCormick get sum Run
He does run hard but he is not very good and certainly not a top RB. He isn't even close to JJ in terms of talent.
The o line is just garbage. Great back though
I’m sorry but Andre James is a terrible center .. especially when it comes to the run game.
Can’t believe the stats actually show he had a great season.

I have a feeling he’s going to have quite a few fumbles this season, I really really hope not but just a gut feeling quite a few.
Shut up
just a random guy
Raiders are trash, how much of the game will they even be able to work down the field. Can see a lot of 3 and outs coming for this team
Your life is trash 🗑 hop in
We need a RB this guy is not it. He played ok the last couple games, but I just don’t see the talent in this guy.
