He's nothing more than a second-tier guy, every few games, he'll make a "wow" play, but for the most part, he's just a guy. Rarely does he take over a game like the elite WR's do.

No youre just sensitive and dont like anyone being critical of the team. Keep those rose colored glasses on bro and continue to shield yourself from the truth.

Don't confuse your petulant short-sighted whining with legit objective criticism.

I didn't.

I dont think Dez is a top 5 receiver, maybe not even top 10. Im going to post the number of 100 yard games some of his peers have had since entering the league compared to Dez.

Since 2010 Dez: 13 100 yard games

Since 2014 Odell Beckham: 15

Since 2010 Antonio Brown: 25

Since 2011 Aj Green: 24

Since 2011 Julio Jones: 28

Make of it what you want, but I dont think Dez is as big a game changer as those guys

I think and have always believed, lads, that Dez is waaay over hyped.
But I must say, he has always been underused.
This guy is not sporadic, he needs to be in a sync with the game. How about this? Go to Dez every other play.
If he thrives, good. If not then look elsewhere. If given the chance, Dez will step up.
This is your time, Dez, if not now when????

It's like everybody in this thread became Gameover circa 2012-13.

I've said these things his entire career

Put all 4 of those guys in this offense and see how pathetic they look.

Funny thing the scheme or gameplay isn't stopping Cole from catching a lot of balls.

Dev isn't that fast, isn't that quick and doesn't run disciplined routes. One of the league's most over-rated players. It seems lately even his previously reliable hands aren't as reliable.

Love when the coaches get thrown into this. AB makes that catch in end zone. It's what big time wr do.

Our offense doesn't do anything to get Dez involved. Look at the routes he's running. They are go routes and crap like that. I think we have one of the dumbest coaching Staff in the nfl.

Julio Jones isn't that fast either. But look how they line him up and what routes he runs. Crossing,posts,slants..motion.
Julio Jones might be the fastest guy on the list that somebody posted of top WRs. He had the fastest 40 at the combine.

Dez is probably the focal point when teams scout us. Players and coaches around the league respect dez's game as being one of the best, kinda sad his own Cowboys fans can't even see that

This is a good idea. If you watch Dez over the coarse of his career the earlier he got the ball in games the better he played. I said this in another thread. They need to make it a priority to get Dez the ball early and often in that first offensive drive. Do a bubble screen, a quick slant, anything to get him the ball. Getting him the ball will set the tone for his game. But if he doesn't get the ball thrown to him early then he starts disappearing.

You guys may misunderstand me. I love Dez. I loved Dez since we drafted him. I want him here and I want him to succeed. But lately he has not been elite and it looks like he has started to decline. Hopefully that's coaching but he drops more passes than he did and doesn't get open as much. it truly sucks cuz I want him to be the man, but he's not been playing like it.

Dez is the Cowboys one true difference making receiver (WR/TE). Witten is chain mover underneath. You scheme your coverage to take away Dez and you live with Witten and Beasley underneath.
