Who cares?..boys 7-1. He's doing what is asked of him.
thats what, to be a 70 mil distraction. all I saw was dropped passes, and complaining for a PI flag all game. I hope he has a better second half, b/c he aint showing me nothing this year. Would be to costly to trade him or cut him b/c of salary cap... the contract is signed, we have to live with it.

dak isn't comfortable throwin longer passes. thats one thing about having Romo; him and dez had a connection so he got the ball more. dak and dez gotta build that relationship.


dez helps free up the other recievers because the teams still respect dez as a threat so they cover him closer.
He is dropping everything tho. And today, they show Dez jogging when he was the first option. He gave no effort and that has nothing to do with the QB. nikkas making excuses for this nikka talking about Dak don't feel comfortable throwing deep, so how can you be an elite WR when you can only catch long passes? He was dropping short and medium passes today

the cowboys plays 90% of the time have dez on go routes, what the fukk are you talking about. its not dez's choice, he has to follow the play.

its also hard to catch the ball when the defender grabs one of your arms; which happened on all his "dropped" passes today. romo always threw to dez regardless. dak just can't do that right now, simple as that.

Dez is the type of player you have to keep engaged or he will lose interest.

HOWEVER, I will say this. Dez route running is garbage. He rely's way too much on raw physical ability.

Most of his catches are low percentage scenarios where the probability of a completion is less than 50%.

With that being said, his presence ALONE opens up the field for everyone else because defense will still draw the coverage to his way. As long as the QB doesn't try to force him the ball, the offense will stay in rhythm.

Truth. He can only run like a few routes.

Antonio Brown is faster and is a way better route runner so you can't put Dez above him.

Green and Jones have the height advantage plus Jones is just as fast so you can't put Dez above them neither.

Dez is still top 10, maybe even top 5 but at the end of the day, this offense doesn't depend on Dez needing to put up big numbers for them to dominate which is a good thing.

I'd say to make a fair assessment like that you should wait until the end of the system. He has missed a few games this year, but that does not excuse him from criticism.

He had a decent game vs the Eagles but then again he was targeted 14 times bringing in 4 catches for 113 and a TD. Today vs the Browns he was targeted 4 times bringing in 1 catch for 19 yards. Not the numbers you suspect from a player of his caliber.

Let's not get wreckless with the comments though because buddy has a star on his helmet. He's a starter on damn near every NFL roster whether he is a top 4 WR or not.
