I honestly couldn't tell you the last time Dez had a breakout game where he was all over SportsCenter.
January 11, 2015.

When Dez made a great catch that was ruled no catch and Green Bay won that playoff game.

Since the catch didn't count, Dez finished with 3 catches for 38 yards on 4 targets.

4 targets. In a playoff game.
I swear Dallas don't know how to use this dude.

:snoop:

If Dak stays out there then Dez numbers probably won't be "elite" cause Dak is going to throw to the most open guy...which is generally going to be cole world...unlike Romo who will force feed him...

But...cole world would be trash without Dez...the entire Dallas passing game would be trash without Dez...

Still elite but not getting the opportunities other top level receivers get...once he does he'll be fine

It's a mixture of both Dez and the Cowboys. The scouting on Dez is that he's still a lil raw when it comes to route running, so that's gonna affect how productive you are. But on the flipside, all the Cowboys wanted to do with him is have him go long all the damn time. He ran like 21 go routes first game of the season. Other wrs like julio, brown, etc, they get moved around, they're great route runners, so they get theres. Dez physically can be elite but he gotta work on getting better at running routes, while the cowboys need to open up the playbook more.

Not a stupid thread in the least. Even Stevie Wonder can see Dez's rapid decline since 2014.

:ld:
It is a stupid thread.

2014- all pro and led the league in TDs. Broke :to: team record in Tds that year

2015-broke his foot the first game and rushed back. Obviously he wasnt the same. Came back and played with the Brandon fukkin Weeden and Matt Cassell

2016-Playing with a rookie QB thats not going to throw to him unless hes wide open.


Yall nikkas overreact over everything :snoop:

3 catches for 40 yards.

:francis:

You really gonna pretend like Dez is still performing at a dominant level?

He hasn't had a big game in a long time.
What do you want the man to do? Start at QB and throw it to himself? :stopitslime:

The team won and like I said before he scored a TD so he still had impact. Don't be a fantasy football nerd

I want him to get more than 40 yards a game.

Jarvis is always going to have more catches because Jarvis gets targeted a lot. You're just being a stat nerd
