I think Ceedee is an example of this. Dude has gotten a bunch of attention, endorsements and now over 1 million followers on IG being a Cowboy, he had like 100K when at Oklahoma.

Getting the 88 number and everybody touting him as the next great receiver has held him back, in my opinion. He hasn’t improved at all from his rookie year and isn’t anywhere near living up to the hype he was and is getting.
Drops way to many easy ones.

The attention hasn’t held him back. Him buying into it has. There’s a difference. You either have the maturity and work ethic to put it aside or you don’t.

I totally agree on CeeDee, if there is one guy on the team that has let the bright lights and press go to his head it's CeeDee. So many drops. I wish we had a QB capable of throwing outside and hitting Cooper, he was wide open all game. The biggest weakness on the 49ers team was their outside corners, but that is DAK weakness. DAK likes throwing short up the middle or dumping it off to ZEK, which hasn't been a good idea in years.

Diggs hasn't been talked about enough on this board. Love he's a ball hawk but some of the lazy coverage I saw yesterday was mind boggling. He needs to work on being a better CB over the off season.
He is talented coming out of Alabama but he has to work on his craft and coverage skills going forward. Being a ball hawk is good for his rep but their is way more to his job than that. I expect to see him playing better next season in this regard.

I’m I agree.

I also think Zeke has coasted until this year when Pollard lit a fire under his butt. There’s a reason he didn’t want to sit out. He was finally pushed for the first time in his football life and he was better for it.
Was Zeke better? Looked like crap to me. He hurt us more than he helped in my eyes. I rather have given those 12 carries to Pollard.

He's inconsistent
Nice catch, then a drop.

Why would Mccarthy get any credit for making the playoffs? Has dez seen the rest of the division? To not make the playoffs would have been a complete travesty, im sure we would have backed our way in last year as well if Dak hadn't got hurt.

We rode a horrendous division and a 3rd place schedule.

+1 .......to hear it coming from Dez is certainly an eye opener. He prides himself on being one of the dawgs. You won't see him taking shots at players often.
