I don't disagree with your assessment of Dez. But the "vanilla offense" has been a long complaint by the Cowboys players and opponents.
It’s been long a complaint by TO and Dez. So please spare our intelligence by suggesting that makes it so coming from those 2 mental midgets.

This will be a better team without Dez. Dak won't have to appease his ego anymore, and can throw it to the open guy.

So where did I put put words in your mouth? If your going to respond to me incorrectly and when I call you out for it, don't claim I put words in your mouth because your understanding of what I was saying was wrong.

As for your second question, because that's not yet definition of naming players as I stated explicitly in the post. That's what you call NOT naming players.

You know who did name a player despite claiming they moved on as I STATED when Dez came out with his tweets? Stephen Jones..

Really - you can't see where you put words in my mouth? You responded to my comments by claiming I was saying this ...

So 'naming quickly' these last few days is naming somebody from the beginning?

As for your claim that blaming the team captains doesn't equate to naming names because he didn't specifically use their names, that's like blaming something on the President of the United States and claiming that doesn't equate to naming Donald Trump.

But even if you want to stick to the claim he didn't name anyone specific, the fact remains that right away he started placing blame on others.

So the WR has more power than the QB? Where was Dak's accuracy with his 6 INTs returned for a TD? Where was Dak with the rest of the WRs whose production also dropped? Cole Beasley's drop off was way more than Dez's and that was Dak's go to Target year 1...
Dez was suppose to be a true #1WR, who needed to help his YOUNG QB out. Beasley's drop off last year was in part to teams double teaming him and daring Dez to beat them.

Lee isn't that good, that's why they drafted his replacement this year..
They drafted LVE because they could not retain Hitchens in free agency.

If the cowboys had come to terms with Hitchens then LVE doesn't get drafted

Apparently you missed the word "opponents." Throughout the years, opponents have complained about the Cowboys vanilla offense. Players such as Hall of Famer Ray Lewis.

LOL, why would an “opponent” complain about the Cowboys offense?

Lee and Frederick both were being accused of having Dez ran off, they addressed the media after Dez accusation and have moved on. I seriously doubt Dez will let it go.

Ray Lewis said it as an ex-player and an NFL commentator. But I think you understand my point. More than Dez Bryant have said the Cowboys offense is vanilla. This has been a longstanding criticism.

Isn’t he a murderer?

Lee is one of the few Cowboys that aren't overrated by the fans, will say he has gotten more love for this past year. Tyron, Dez, Dak, Jaylon, Jason, Orlando, Terrance, and Cole all overrated especially these past 3 years.

No, he's not. And even if he was, does that suddenly mean he loses all football knowledge?
Are you disputing that the Cowboys offense isn't vanilla?

and in 2016 was the 5th ranked offense. True nothing fantasy about the offense but still very capable

Which could be a product of having elite talent. Remember, the Cowboys of the 90s were said to have a simple offense. But the units on the offense (quarterback, running back, receiver, tight end and offensive line) were so elite that teams knew what the Cowboys were going to do but still couldn't stop it.
Garrett, who witnessed those teams first hand as did Jerry Jones, is trying to duplicate the same success. But it doesn't seem to be working despite our offensive talent. Maybe it's an issue of coaching?

People need to make up their minds one day we have elite talent then next people act as if this is the Cleveland Browns. Guess what the offensives ranked 1 through 4 also have elite talent, they are not doing it with smoke and mirrors. I find it really funny how only Dallas offense is a product of elite talent all others are because of creativity. Hell I can watch the Pats game and know damn well what they are going to run because they run many of the same plays over and over but they execute it to the tee.

I'm not "people." I'm me. I don't know what other people say. I don't keep track of all their comments.
Second, I said "could" not "IS".
Third, this topic has moved further than I meant. My point is that Dez as well as our opponents have said our offense is vanilla. I trust a player like Ray Lewis, who said it. You offered a statistic and I tried to address the statistics with a possibility, i.e., we might have elite talent despite the offense.
This really isn't that big a deal for me, and I'm kind of sorry I let it get to this point.
So, in conclusion, other players beyond Dez Bryant said that our offense is vanilla. I believe them. If I'm wrong and we light it up, so be it. It REALLY doesn't make any difference to me.
Peace.
