Dez "Believers"

[gimmesix]

I read it backwards.

It's a good thing it's not a KISS album then.

Why do you continually complain about these threads and repeatedly post in them, lol?

to drive you and others crazy
I am tired of all the Dez threads and whining, so I may as well drive others that way by complaining

You have zero effect on my mood and so does everything else on this forum. It's just for fun. If it bothers you that someone shares a different opinion, regardless of how ridiculous you think it is just ignore it. It's a waste to invest any time whining about the Dez threads.

 

[Verdict]

I like Dez and always have, but at this point in time Dez's salary and production are not matching up. He's overpaid. If Dez refuses the pay cut I'd let him leave. But if Dez accepts the pay cut, I would include some incentives in the deal to help keep his head in the game. He's an emotional guy and after a paycut, he might just go flat without the incentives.

You would think if the Cowboys want to keep him around they would offer him some incentives. If they don't I think it is pretty clear they want him to move along. B

 

[Verdict]

2012 – 1,382 yards, 12 TD's
2013 – 1,233 yards, 13 TD's
2014 – 1,320 yards, 16 TD's

He got a new contract going into the 2015 season.

So you're saying, after three years of those numbers, you didn't think he was a "Top 5 receiver" (whatever that even means) and didn't like that he got paid, but still claim you were a fan of his?

Ok.

It's okay to admit you've been a career Dez hater, we'll still love you.

Not really. I was a Dez fan, but aim more of a Cowboys fan than a Dez fan. I didn't think Des could ever live up to that contract. There was just way too litle margin for error in that contract for the Cowboys. I didn't like the contract for the Cowboys.

Unfortunately I was right that Dez wouldn't and hasn't lived up to it. I just didn't anticipate he would be this bad.

Yup. There are always players who get a ton of attention. And of those players, mostly what is said is repetitive trash. Fighting it is beyond pointless.

I don't care if I have an effect on your or anyone else's mood. Just for fun as you say, and that is what I am having with it. It does not bother me as that is what we are here for, opinions. Get over yourself attempting to tell me how to post about investing time.

Yeah, he really has kinda freaked out and just doesn't seem interested any more. It's like he couldn't grasp the playbook, so he gave up and runs down the field waving his arms in the air.

Whine on, you seem to have a flare for it.

We can bring flares here? I want one!!!

If you want to get him to ignore you, ask him if Randy Gregory is aware the new league year has started already.

What is your problem?

When he talked about not being entirely focused at times last season, didn't exactly extend endearment and heartfelt well wishes from his fan faithful,,,I guess to completely wash the hands clean of him would be something like a complete helmet slinging, clip board slapping sideline tirade of fission critical meltdown level,,, as long as he puts his head down & bows up on game day the fans that count(JERRY) HE'S untouchable.

Every player plays with some kind of pain. To my knowledge he hasn't had any hand injuries yet the past couple of seasons he's developed a bad case of dropsy and fumblitis. He has still thrown childish temper tantrums on the field and sidelines. He pouts if he doesn't get the 1st bunch of targets to start a game, like a spoiled little kid. Example, when Witten's personal record for catching at least 1 pass in every game came to an end he didn't say a word about it. Why - because he's the consummate professional and doesn't act like a spoiled 5 year old like Bryant. Bryant has not played like a top elite receiver for years and is no longer worth a 16.5 mil cap hit this season. All he's ever been is a 1 trick pony of out jumping a defender. The Cowboys need to show him the door.

I am done with your crap too, you are whining yourself.

Specifically or do want a list?

Ah, Dez thread # 67,336. Just what I was waiting for. I think it is time to post this very important message.

If you can read this OUT LOUD you have a strong mind. And better than that: Alzheimer's is a long long, way down the road before it ever gets anywhere near you!

Takes 2 to tango; Dez and Dak need to be in sync with each other.

Lol. I wish it were that easy for some others.

I don't see why not, I mean they'll probably amend the forum rules banishing them, but we could get a few things burnt to the ground.

 

[LACowboysFan1]

is no longer worth a 16.5 mil cap hit this season

Do I think Dez can be a "top" receiver this year? Yes, I do, if for no other reason than Dak having another off season to get better and to get a rapport with Dez.

But can he be "worth" 16.5 mil?

Not on your life. I also really don't think the offense would suffer if he was released/traded, assuming the coaches can work up game plans to properly use Hurns,Beasley, Williams, Switzer, Witten (not to mention if Gathers, et al can finally show us something) etc. And that's a big assumption, I know but Linehan was supposedly a passing game coordinator.

Dez has value, but if he won't take a pay cut or re-negotiate his contract, can't see keeping him....
