A Blessing in Disguise

[CoachD]

No, I don't want to see anyone get hurt especially a Cowboys player but now that Gallup is out the Cowboy's offense will be more efficient and explosive with Cedrick Wilson at receiver. Every time that guy is on the field he's always making a big play somewhere. Ya ya I know Gallup can make a lot of circus catches but when Wilson plays it just seems like the offense moves the ball with a lot more consistency so hopefully, we'll see a lot more of that this week against the Niners.

Opportunity?

 

[Meat-O-Rama]

I think the blessing in disguise is that Gallup missed time earlier this season which allowed Cedrick to get more integrated into the offense than if he'd been thrown in there in the last game of the season.

 

[Aven8]

When we went on our run that got us here he was super dynamic. Supposedly he and Dak work a lot out on his field and it shows in games.

Now just put Steele back at RT and we’re gold.

 

[MarcusRock]

Wilson's not a bad dropoff but I'd rather have Gallup if we have a choice. Hope Wilson can step up as the competition steps up.

 

[MoistMayonnaise]

lol

Ced has done well filling in for Gallup, but he is not the better receiver.

You guys are having a revisionist history on Wilson....I like Wilson for what he is but when the receivers were out we saw what he was. Gallup is a big play receiver. He will be missed on offense for sure.

 

[maryquality]

I think Gallup is the better receiver too.....but can Gallup throw a beautiful pass down the field for a completion?

Just different types of 'big' plays...both can be worked well.

I disagree. I like wilson. nice down field threat...but Gallup is our most physical WR....cooper and wilson are finesse type WRs....cooper tends to disappear when defenses get physical with him

Wilson when he was drafted considered better route runner , but Gallup was faster and more go getter Receiver.

 

[lukin2006]

Keeping both would be nice…but my guess is we keep Wilson.

 

[Hawkeye19]

Wilson has some nice chemistry with Dak. Gallup does too on 50/50 jump balls… but Cedrick does a very nice job of making tough catches over the middle— and clutch catches on 3rd and 4th down

 

[Miller]

Gallup is a better receiver overall and really makes the tough catches on the sidelines snd deep. Missed..but

Where I like Ced is in the slot and seams and on slants, I feel like until he started playing we gave up on WRs crossing the middle but last 2 weeks he’s made it work. Especially the quick slant or dig patterns. I’ve always wondered why CeeDee wasn’t doing more of it

[fansince68]

Wilson's skill set is a better match for QB. Dak doesn't have it when it comes to deep ball accuracy. Gallup is similar to Dez, he's money on 50/50 balls. See...."Dez Bryant not guilty". Dak is better at short and intermediate throws, comebacks and button hooks. This is exactly what Wilson excels at. Gallup is faster, Wilson is quicker. If we do lose Gallup next year, I hope we replace him with a speedy burner to stretch open the defense.

Lamb needs to do more.

I’m sorry but this guy should have a bigger impact than he does.

Including a touchdown pass.

Been saying this for a while. This is a major problem for this offense. We would be significantly better if we knew how to get this guy the ball

Good point.
