OP, it's threads like this that actually turn people against the guy you're propping up. When you try to bash a perfectly good player in order to make the guy you like look like an All Pro, people tend to be more down on him than they would otherwise be. I think most of the fans like Pollard a lot, but keep exaggerating his talent at the expense of other favorites, and you'll get the opposite reaction to what you were hoping for.

I don't have the stats to back it up for 2019 but it just seemed like a whole lot of catches Gallup had to make were tough ones, he really had to reach for them. I'm not saying all of them, but a large portion, it seemed.

Something I've noticed over the past 8-10 seasons, not a lot of love for that 2nd receiver. From Miles Austin to Terrance Williams and now Michael Gallup. Actually, with Jason Witten at TE, the 2nd receiver is 3rd. Be it as it may, I suppose fans won't be happy until we have two legitimate #1's.

Enter CeeDee Lamb. However, that is probably a year off, which means plenty of time to start building that animosity towards Amari Cooper.
Gallup made a few spectacularly athletic catches and runs after catch.

Not to worry. The OP'S lack of knowledge will in no way affect my opinion of pollard. And by reading these posts, no one else's either. He stands alone.

Leads the league in drops , has the benefit of playing with #1 WR and TOP RB in the league.


Pollard brings more value to offense with his ability to attack defenses in multiple ways.


I’ll take Alvin Kamara esque RB over a ball dropping Juju like always a #2 WR.



You are delusional. MG had 1107 receiving yards in 2019. TP can't top that. He won't even be given the opportunity to top that. Not that he could.

This overhyping of Gallup is getting too much especially when his contract is about to come up. It’s also really disrespectful when fans said he could be #1 or is a #1b. Dude benefits from Amari and Zeke and will get exposed like Juju if he has to step up.


This offense should give more opportunity to Pollard who is already a better route runner, better hands, and speed to attack defenses in multiple ways.

One must give credit when due. Coop & Gallup both had over 1,000 yards last season, becoming the first Cowboys receiving duo to accomplish that feat since 2012 Bryant & Witty.

How on earth did Gallup "benefit" from Zeke on that accomplishment?!

Heres a question for you... maybe they are both really good players on this team, is that too polarizing for you?

This one of the most hating *** posts i've seen in awhile, Dak posts, aside. Stop hating on our players man. Like you don't have to tear down Gallup to to hype up Pollard. Like why are you comparing two players who don't even play the same position? It's dumb.

Whats worse is that one is a Wideout and the other a RB. I don't quite get how Gallup is negatively impacting Pollards chances. XD
