Know what his best "separation" stat is?

Separating the Cowboys from their cap space.

On a salary vs production scale, he's blowing the other receivers in the league out of the water!

Take that guys!

He's doing what this offense allows for him to do. If he was in Philly or GBs offense his stats would be better.

Except I have no idea what those stats are.

No problem. They're on NFL.com for receiver stats. The key number you want to look at is 43. That's where he ranks in terms of receptions.

The other is a list of wide receiver salaries. There, he ranks much higher, at number 5.

He's doing what his limited abilities and routes allow him to do. It has nothing to do with "this offense". There's not a receiver in the league who's in a "better" position than him. He's got a top quarterback, the best offensive line in the league, and a top running back for defense's to be concerned with.

Stop trying to make excuses for him.

Explain why Beasley’s stats have tanked?

Explain why T-Will’s numbers are down?

Now post the rest of the Cowboys receivers numbers and you’ll see everyone’s numbers are down.

Show me where "everybody" is getting paid Top 5 for their position. As soon as you do that, I'll pull up whatever other "numbers" you need to see.

What are T-Will's numbers "down" to? From one catch a game to zero?

Is that how desperate you are to defend Bryant's failures that you're now looking at "T-Will's numbers"?

That just sad.

Defend what I presented.

A guy who ranks 43rd in receptions and 5th in salary.

Have at it!

His stats are pretty comparable to most of the league. Hes like 50 yards out of the top 15 and the catches and tds vary.

Prescott has missed some throws in the first few games that would have changed his stats a lot. Our offense has been cooking as of late, lets see how the season plays out.

As i said hes paid to make tds. He'll never be a 100 catch a year wr in this offense.

You want to argue stats, argue them all. He's ninth in TD receptions on a running team. That'll play.

Yeah! Imagine what Wittens career could have been like if he didn’t waste so much time in this offense.

Or what about Dak and Zeke. I can only imagine what kind of rookie seasons they could have had in a real offense.

Calling BS here. He would definitely produce more in a different offensive scheme. He isn't putting up huge numbers, because we just don't pass like other teams. Nearly a 50/50 split on runs and passes.

Dak averages probably like 230 yards per game, and spreads the ball around a lot. If Dez was in a pass-heavy offense like GB (with Rodgers), Atlanta, or New England, he'd be putting up elite numbers.

Mosher didn't say Dez is good at getting separation, he only said he has been better than last year.

He is ranked 97th in the NFL in this stat.
Separation per target is hard to read because it only takes into the account of plays that the QB has thrown the ball to the WR. If you QB is throwing the ball away in your direction because they are under pressure it impacts the stats. Or if a CB slips and falls and you are wide open it has the opposite effect.
Its a fun little stat but we can see how many scenarios can impact this stat and how a QB's tendencies, throwing style ect also impact this stat.

Um, yay?

Maybe because the offensive coordinator continues to think that throwing 50-50 balls inside the 5-yard line is a good play?

He's also 43rd in receiving yardage despite being tied for 9th in targets.
