Am I the only one that thinks Jarwin should be getting these TD tosses in the redzone instead of Witten? Witten runs about a 6 second forty and Jarwin is said to be a natural athletic freak. I mean, get Jarwin going and keep him going. We need someone who can run after the catch. Dallas did Witten a favor by letting him come back. WE DON"T NEED HIM! I love Witten but come playoff time I want Jarwin catching those balls. They need to get Jarwin more involved in this offense! Get him ready for the post season. I guess what i'm trying to say is if Kellen Moore would start targeting Jarwin more he could possibly be one of the leagues best TE's. I hate to sound like i'm bashing on Witten but good God he can't run. How many teams would have let him come back? Not many ...rant over
SHOULD?lmao:lmao::lmao2:

who dies and made you owner, coach, gm and player evaluator? Witten earned a chance to come back and play, period.

the disrespect is unnecessary..who cares whos catching the passes and Tds? :omg::angry::thumbdown:

One other thing I wanted to add to this thread.
I think we have seen more YAC from Witt in the first three games this year than in in the last three previous years combined.
In fact, it’s not just Witt but our receiving corps in general.
No more run to the sticks and turn around on 3rd and 9. Impossible to get additional yardage with your back turned to a nfl caliber defender. Our receivers now have a chance to catch and run.

Shoot, the NFL had to make a rule because Emmitt would always take his helmet off right after a TD.
They put a stop to that...
He did, and the rule was stupid. It's not like he was ripping his helmet off and throwing it at people. The picture in my sig is after scoring a TD, so if he hadn't done that, I never would've been able to paint it! ;)

I said this from the jump jarwin will get barely any burn and this witten experiment is just going to hinder Jarwin's development and confidence for the season. Its more upsetting that they are basically forcing dak and moore to make witten the career td leader for the team

True. He would just take it off, make sure he had the ball and head to the sideline.
I never really knew why they outlawed it, but I seem to remember it was under the guise of "taunting".

Witten wasn’t given anything and I’m one of the guys who didn’t want him back. But I was wrong. I love that he isn’t the focal point of the offense and he looks to be in great shape. Glad I was wrong.
I'm cool with the O so far. Maybe start a bit quicker, but darnit, I really like the adjustments and clump scoring.
Very different from last year.

What's the problem Witten scored the TD? Do you have Blake on your fantasy team and you played against Witten, lol?

Game 1
Jarwin 3 targets 3 comp 39 yds long 28 1 td
Witten 4 targets 3 comp 15 yds long 6 1 td
so G1 I have to say Jarwin was a little better.

Game 2
Jarwin 1 target 1 comp 22 yds long 22 0 td
Witten 4 targets 4 comp 25 yds long 18 1 td
Witten got more targets so hard to say who was better

Game 3
Jarwin 3 targets 1 comp 3 yds long 3 0 td
Witten 4 targets 3 comp 54 yds long 33 0 td
I would have to say witten was better G3, he earned 1 target by getting open
with ad lib move for the 33 yd Pass play
The 1 target he missed was the one in the endzone, which says they want to target witten
in the red zone

They need to keep getting Jarwin targets, but Witten has experience, and sure hands
most of the time and he may ad lib better.
He has shown better rac skills this season.

They have 2 good TE in Jarwin and Witten they should use them both and not
get carried away targeting witten.

Emmitt Smith. Used to put the ball down in the end zone and go to the sidelines. His father said why you leaving a perfectly good football in the end zone.
Emmitt Smith kept every TD ball in his entire career. He had to expand his house to make room for them all.

Hopefully you’re the only one with this ridiculous take. My God our fans.
