Beasley as Punt Returner

[rynochop]

I love what he brings in the slot, but man, talk about an absolute zero threat as a returner. I shouldnt happy if he catches it clean and doesnt fumble on his 4 yard return.

He.s way to hesitant and dances around too much. Can TWill return? I know he.s the number 1 now, but still

 

[Wheeltax]

have to agree, I cringe every time I see him on a return

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

What was the point of Lucky ?

 

[ThrowuptheXDez88]

I'd like to see what Tyler Patmon can do as a punt returner.

 

[fortdick]

He ain't hurt us yet. That may be the best we can hope for.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

We have been keeping Lucky active, mighgt as well give him a shot. I have wondered about Byron Jones as well.

 

[mattjames2010]

Yeah, no one is going to do much better than Beasley if our own players keep dropping in front of the feet of our returners. I mean, what the hell was that about?

 

[speedkilz88]

I think he actually may have saved us in both games. The blocking crew seems to be doing everything they can to make the returner muff the ball. If that was Whitehead or someone else not sure if those wouldn't be muffs.

 

[Deep_South]

I don't really know what is going on with our punt return team, but I hope the coaches will just tell everyone to stay away from Beasley and let him just fair catch it until we get it worked out.

 

[casmith07]

I'm just glad he cleanly fields the punt. I would love a dynamic returner, but not at the expense of added turnover risk.

Just fair catch that ****. We have the best offensive line in the game. If we can't start on the 10 and at least get a field goal, then we're doing something wrong.

 

[anava]

With a question mark at QB, I doubt they now think about giving a guy with a history of dropping the ball a chance. Could be playing a lot of field position games in the next few weeks. Also, I was thinking the same thing before Romo went down.

Yeah, or Dunbar

 

[speedkilz88]

Yeah, or Dunbar

Has Dunbar ever returned a punt?

 

[Alexander]

He may not be exciting but he is more reliable than Whitehead. We can't afford muffed punts and turnovers with our offense in shambles.

Beasley as Punt Returner

Should have been lifted when he became the second string QB.

 

[Sasquatch]

He ain't hurt us yet. That may be the best we can hope for.

He doesn't appear to be much of a threat, and appears downright awkward at times, but perhaps avoiding a cataclysmic mistake is all the team is hoping for at this point just as you suggest.

What was the point of Lucky ?

His dreads are pretty sweet. Filled the requirement of having a wideout with dreads

 

[rynochop]

Has Dunbar ever returned a punt?

I have no idea, he seems to catch passes pretty well. Back to the qb on the sideline, over the shoulder, im gonna give him the benefit of the doubt

 

[Stash]

If th choice were mine, I'd release Whitehead immediately and put him on the practice squad until he learns how to be a pro. And then I'd sign a capable WR/KR to fill that spot. Austin Pettis has done it for the Rams and they worked him out last week. When they did, I thought we might see Lucky cut and Pettis signed as part of a two-fer at the position.

I don't think he's not a threat as a punt returner, just that the conditions have to be just right for him to break one. He doesn't read the special teams coverage well enough to immediately know where he needs to go to make the most of the return.

I think we need to stick Lucky back there because that's the part he understands, but I acknowledge that the hesitation is because Dallas doesn't want to run the risk of fumbling.
