JG Don't Use Witt As An Excuse

[GMO415]

Without Witten Dallas is not better today, but that doesn't apply to tommorow. JG you have the draft, all mini camps and TC to get your TEs ready . That position should be solid and not an excuse

You should have seen this day coming!!!!

I personally would like a new HC and a better more creative passing game, so out with Garrett.

Can't wait to see who the Witten haters are going to blame now.

Read the board. He's been the one holding back the offense and keeping gems like rico gathers from getting an opportunity.

Any avid fan of Wittens (without bias) knows that the Cowboys have needed an upgrade at the TE position. Stop drafting Witten clones hoping that they will be him. DuPree and Novacek were exemplary pieces that helped bring championships to the organization. Draft a receiving TE and let him stretch the field like Jason did earlier in his career. HoH, HoF well deserved, but the time to move on has passed for our beloved Witten.

I find it hard to believe the Cowboys were unaware of Witten's plans. It's more likely the front office played some role in Jason's good fortune with ESPN.

I think we did better with that than what you had in mind. I think Schultz will prove to be very similar to Witten. He was known for being an exemplary blocker in college, but he was rarely targeted. However, when he was, he made plays. I think we got a big time steal with him in the draft.

I’m not worried about JG using Witten’s retirement as an excuse; my concern is Jerry using it as one more rationalization tool in order to keep Garrett, should the 2018 season turn out to be another excercise in mediocrity.

Besides needing a new, as-yet-undeveloped TE, having all new position coaches, adjusting to life after Dez, plus whatever unknown injuries/suspensions we might incur (knock on wood) — never mind two incumbent coordinators to scapegoat — might each contribute to JG surviving all but a total Wade Phillips-level collapse.

Cowboys like their TEs. It’s the fans who don’t.

If he turns out well, fine. He should be himself and drown out any comparisons that do not apply. Make his own mark in the organization.

I agree, but, like I said, I think that's where Witten can be of tremendous help to Schultz if he opts to remain with the team.

That's also true of the coaches, safeties, defensive tackles, wide receivers...

Garrett isn't going anywhere this year, so why not just let other topics be open to discussion without having to turn it to Garrett?
