People overrate the **** out of Witten on here because of his career receptions #...
Stop, witten hasn't helped anyone in his entire career. This is a factWitten has been working hard with jarwin so it makes sense for why he looks good in camp. I think we should expect witten to take a step back with playing time. It’s overall a great sight to see witten back. Without his hairpiece.
If Jarwin really is playing well and has shown great improvement, it's going to be fascinating to watch how Garrett handles the Witten situation. There is little doubt as the season gets close, Witten is going to be pushing for a ton of snaps, if not most of the snaps, like he did before.
2 years ago wittens blocking was below average. Where do you guys come up with this stuff?Witten is the better blocker, and he will still be valuable in short yardage. When we are in 1 TE sets, it may be someone else, but in 2 TE sets, I think Witten will be the underneath guy with Jarwin working downfield and in the seam. In my opinion, only a major move by Rico as blocker and trusted receiver would keep Witten off the field.
Nah he was legit back in the day but his time has past.
I don't think he was ever the best TE in football though.
Tony Gonzales and Gronk were always in the way.
You could make the argument that he was better all around then Gonzales and Gronk wasn't dependable.
Jimmy Graham was a force at one point too.
Now it's the Travis Kelce show.
He was a consistent singles and doubles hitter in a league where a few TEs were homerun sultans.He was never the best TE in the game. He was in the top 5 for many years though, I agree.
3rd and 5. I remember when Witt was easy money on 3rd and 12. Its time to really give the youngsters a chance.I’m still looking for Witt in 3rd and 5 until he proves he doesn’t have the always-open magic anymore.
When we had Marty B, I think JG had that idea.Hernandez and Gronk?
Watch out NFL here comes Dallas.
G Bag and Fish both reported that Jarwin has looked superior to Witten. They said it's no contest. Does JG pull the old war horse for the young superior talent?
I also look forward to seeing the Sloth get tackled short on 3rd and 5, like he's proven time and again.
I don’t admit anything I couldn’t possibly know.
The question stands. Why are you looking forward to Witten failing?
So you can beat your internet message board chest while your team struggles?
What’s wrong with you?
This is just running around in shorts. When the pads go on he will step it up. Once the regular season games starts he will start leaning on people, he is old and smart enough to know when to turn it on.I heard the same thing on The Fan today. As much as it pains me, because Witt is my favorite Cowboy ever, even he would be ok with what’s best for the team. If Jarwin is better, so be it, I’m sure Witt’s mentoring is invaluable.
The problem is in this scenario the next down is always 4th and 1.I’m still looking for Witt in 3rd and 5 until he proves he doesn’t have the always-open magic anymore.
well only one person was running reps with the first team... and it wasnt Jarwin.If Jarwin really is playing well and has shown great improvement, it's going to be fascinating to watch how Garrett handles the Witten situation. There is little doubt as the season gets close, Witten is going to be pushing for a ton of snaps, if not most of the snaps, like he did before.
