If you want to bring out the Romo hate... this is how you do it...
Romo made Dez, just like a lot of receivers he worked with. His arm was about 300x better than Dak's arm is...
So if you think Amari is doing well with Dak, just think what it would have been with Romo lol. Because Romo wouldn't hesitate to make a read and let it go.
Now people can hate Romo & Dez in the same thread...
After 2014 Dez had 3 morons to work with in Dallas, then he had a rookie with an incapable arm to make the throws he was good at.
I said before, QBs elevate the receivers, not vice versa... So... What we have here is a switch in roles. Amari is actually technical enough, (and his hands aren't questionable like they
were for a couple seasons in Oakland) to make up for Dak, and elevate the QB. That isn't something you see that often. So for this current team Amari is obviously a better fit.
With Romo either one of them would work. That is the difference between them.
Frankly, it is hard to bash Dez, when he leads the team in TDs... Witten played from 2003 to 2017 Dez from 20010 to 2017... He still has Witten beat in points.
That is 113 games for Dez to 239 games for Witten as well. We all know how much Tony relied on Witten... So that is saying something.
Frankly Dez was a genetic freak, one of the strongest receivers physically ever. He is probably in the top 5 in physicality, as far as WRs go. That is part of why
his body was breaking down at a higher rate.
We can all cut the crap about the sideline issues with Dez as well, since we all heard the audio from those things the media tried to point out as
Dez having a break down... He wasn't saying anything but positive, stuff... He wanted to win. He was saying it to a team, that often looked like they
just woke up out of bed. Many times he was about the only person on the sideline with any emotion.
The only time Dez ticked me off was when he walked off the field. But then again, Zeke ticked me off by giving up on trying to tackle after the int that one game as well.
