Crazy Flournoy didn't get a target

[shabazz]

MM knew that getting the ball to Ferguson and Luepke was the smarter move

 

[shabazz]

You can't throw it to everybody. Dak get 300 yards a game regardless.

Yeah but 2 of those passes didn't need to go to Steelers players......

 

[Proof]

Why is it crazy??????
I said all week there was too much hype about him playing. He will get his chances......

figured he’d at least get a look. even just off probability alone

 

[CWR]

They chose slow brooks
Also did the protection get better without t smith?

I think they made a decision to use Turpin a lot more and it came at a cost for Flourney. I was excited to see him, but way more excited to see Turpin get more opportunities.

 

[fivetwos]

The only reason Flournoy was mentioned at all is because Jerry ran his mouth.

Maybe we are to where Mike is giving him false info on game planning lol….or he just can’t help himself but to hype up the sixth guy in a meh WR room. He is Dez Bryant and the rest of the league missed it.

That aside….I don’t know that Cooks gets his job back when healthy. Tolbert has made major strides and good for him.

Tolbert showed out. Ferguson is just so smooth after the catch. Awareness is on point. Turpin man. This guy needs to be out there more also. Little man can fly. Made the best of his opportunities at WR too.

What's more crazy is CeeDee not getting the ball hardly at all after the first quarter.

If CeeDee got open more, he would have gotten the ball thrown more to him. It didn't help that he was double teamed for most of the game and because the Cowboys have no other legit threat at WR to help keep CeeDee from being double teamed so often.

I think you mean without Guyton.... I think it was a distinct possibility from the moment that Guyton went out. It is a better combo myself, more experienced O-Line for sure.

Am I missing something?

Why are people acting like Flourney is some sort of stud that needed targets? He's a JAG until proven otherwise.

Bingo! and this is something CeeDee needs to learn. He IS helping the team when he's doubled-team, meaning there are ways he can help without the ball in his hand.

+1 .....he's always been a fan favorite but Jerry added fuel calling him another Dez. (LOL)

 

[DCreppinBoysfan]

Dez Bryant type qualities

Yeah and Dak ended his career too

It's crazy how we allow our only playmakers on offense to get taken out of the game so easily.

 

[stinkface]

Jerry talking him up like he was the second coming of Dez was typical Jerry. Once a salesman always a salesman. Brooks is a a more known quantity.

I try to tell yall

People got fooled by the Jerry hype machine AGAIN.

Brooks is a more experience player, and we only played Flournoy because we had to. Brooks was targeted once and made a catch. Listening to Broaddus, Flournoy got away with what could’ve been a penalty in the closing minutes of the game.

 

[exciter]

And Yes it seems that the Protection did get better with T Smith at LT.

Eh, Herbig was still working him a bit before he pulled his hamstring!

 

[joseephuss]

Most rookie receivers have little impact in the NFL. Why would anyone expect immediate greatness from a 24 year old rookie from a small college? Let the young man grow into the position.

 

[TrailBlazer]

Brooks made a nice catch. Im not sure why anyone expected Flournoy to get many opportunities in his first game.

because he was a pre-season stud, or they have him in their WR dynasty league.
