Cooper. Excellent route runner. Gallup. Stop fade slant. CeeDee lamb. Burner. Wilson. Just goes up for it. Noah Brown. Does whatever you ask him. Prescott can make every single throw necessary. But better still. We have a receiving corps that can run every single route possibly drawn up. How many teams can say that . Never mind Elliot. Out of the backfield . Screens. I can’t remember an offense this loaded . I didn’t even give the Tight end any love you. Coaches opponent nightmare

It's not a luxury. It's a necessity.
That's if you want to go on and win the Big One.

All true!
Wanna trade Gallup for a stud defensive player,?

The Cowboys first Super Championship team in 1971 had HOFers for both starting WR's and the starting TE. They were "Bullet" Bob Hayes, an Olymipic record holder, Lance "Bambi" Alworth, the most prolific receiver in the AFL, and "Iron" Mike Ditka.

Three Hall of Famers for your receivers. That's luxury.

While I agree, you are comparing a time period without a salary cap to today where resources are much more limited, that has to be taken into account

yeah cowboys are loaded in this area.
I was watching poor darnold play minn, and his guys were dropping balls left and right, so many that the guys in booth were commenting on it.
He doesnt even have 1 top guy, much less 4-5.

Don’t forget Pollard complimenting Elliott. The defense takes a beating trying to tackle Elliott , I suspect Elliott was coached well in high school to give out punishment as defenses try to tackle him. Then Pollard comes in with Jets on and if the line opens a hole he’s 5 yards into the defense looking for a big gain. This duo allows the passing game breathing room

Better than the Greatest Show on Turf?

Warner, Bruce, Holt, Hakeem, Faulk?

I think they might be.

Outside of Amari Cooper who is an all pro talent the


Chiefs
Browns
Bucs

Titans

all have better skill guys.


Dallas’ skill talent is overrated. Our QB has finally made the jump to elite like russel wilson in 2015 though.


Even Randall Cobb had 1000 yards here

Weapons Galore! But you need tons of weapons to go where we want to go. We needed depth at WR. We've needed depth at RB, at TE, along the OL. Being able to create matchup issues and isolate our playmakers so Dak can get them the ball vs all different types of defenses is key.

Bucs last year and Chiefs last few years have shown the value of a great QB with a strong receiving corps.
Bucs with some losses to that corps via injury and Chiefs losses via FA have shown how much it can effect even the best offenses.

I am really looking forward to having Gallup full go with this crew to end the season.
