No I respect him but then I respect men who plays the game as he does. If someone shows they are the better option then play them I'm all for it. I want to win that is the bottom line and any player who is helping this team win games I back and support 100%.

You might as well forget it. He’s just another butthurt fan that kicks and screams when things don’t go his way.

Careful there, I wouldn't want you to get benched.

#4 - You will not include profanity or non-family friendly language in your posts.

Hey genius, all I see are a bunch of stars. I did not try to avoid the filters. Why don’t you go tell mama you got your feelings hurt.

@BourbonBalz Like the username. Loius XIV was a Bourbon, and he built this.

Frankly, I don’t care which of the TEs get the most snaps. It could be Witten or any of the others as long as they’re producing. I just think the argument some make that Witten will play the most simply because the coaching staff won’t have any input is really stupid. Witten certainly deserves all the accolades and the benefit of the doubt but that only goes so far. Witten will work his buttoff as always. It’s up to the others to dethrone him instead of him simply abdicating.

I agree. I think a lot of sacks taken last season would not have happened had Witten been in the lineup, he has provided that safety net for Romo and for Dak, when things are breaking down they knew he would be where he was supposed to be and he would make the catch. As for this year all I have seen thus far is Jason going out and working be in at the Star on his own or at OTA where over the years many vets have seen no reason to attend yet he does. Guys are working in SD ahead of camp, where is Rico? I'm supposed to think he is giving his all yet not there along with others? I got no time for slackers, I want guys who want to win and willing to do all they can to win

I agree and I wish it was happening at the TE position this year but the but kissing coaches are ready to just hand that job to Wit no matter how anyone else plays at that position.

Give me a break, coaches are not kissing his or anyone else butt. Witten works at his job he is not sliding by he is out there on his own as well as OTA he puts in the work and that will always get noticed by coaches on any team at any level. Seems you have the issue with Witten and just expect him to roll over and give someone the job. Yet based on TE performance last season it was lousy, if these guys can't beat out a 37 year old TE then maybe that is their problem, maybe they don't have the talent to do the job.

The filters put those stars there when you use bad language. Putting those stars there yourself is no different than the filter putting them there. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out. I wouldn't want you to get benched.

That’s nothing more than your opinion, yet you state it as a fact. You’re wrong.

Again genius, I didn’t type the stars. The filter did, as I knew it would. Swing and a miss!

That's exactly what I expect a Witten butt kisser to say. There is no arguing with you in this topic.

At least Witten (2017 version) got open in the red zone. Red zone was a problem in 2018.

Red Zone Success Rate
Witten 2017
50% (6 of 12)

all TE 2018
25% (3 of 12)

Successful play gains 40% of needed yardage on 1st down, 60% on 2nd down, 100% on 3rd/4th down.
Dez Bryant.

And that's also way too small of a sample size to say anything.

Nor you. You come in here with stupid remarks of butt kissing? yet this is about performance and last season no TE was doing that Jarwin had a couple of good games, that is great I hope he continues and maybe learn how to block better because if you had a clue you know that is part of the job of a TE. Go crawl back under your rock and maybe when you have a clue you can come back and actually talk football instead of this non sense you are posting

You talk about Wit as if he is the only TE working his tail off. Not a single mention by you about Jarwin but guess what, Jarwin is with that group of Cowboys that are getting together this week in San Diego to get some more practice in. He is trying to get every snap he can get to get better and you can't ignore he was playing much better at the end of the 2018 season. He deserves a chance to play but he won't get it until Wit takes a breather because that's the way Wit wants it.
