Has owned Dez everytime they played.

I'm pretty sure he and Dez have only faced off once before. Dez had 94 yds and a TD.

Today Peterson got a lot of help and got away with a lot also. That flag wasn't the first time Peterson grabbed Bryant's mask. Plus Bryant frequently had Peterson beat, but Weeden with bad throws.

Agreed. However, those who said Arizona was overrated really had no clue what they were talking about.

Amen. Romo was best on the sideline...as many times as Weeden was knocked down, we may have lost Romo for the year. OL wasn't great today...WRs were putrid--no one could get open and eventually Williams and Dez were so focused on the DB they weren't just running routes and looking for the ball. Horrible game for Dez...looked like a rookie running routes and dropped quite a few.

Derek Carr has to go....I'm not sure we should even want him on a pay cut....the dude continues to struggle every week. And the search for a safety who can actually over continues...time to give Hamilton a shot.

Agreed though.....
He at times isn't even average.

We have the Raiders starting qb on our team?

I think the team will be healthier after the bye week. Plus the starting o line should be back together and healthy for the final push.

We allowed far too many third-and-long conversions.

Up until the second half last week, we had been great on offensive third downs and good enough on defensive third downs. Since then, we've been terrible on third downs offensively and defensively, which might be the main reason we've lost two straight

It's also why we're looking like last year's team suddenly. Frustrating to watch those 3rd and longs getting converted over and over in a single drive.

EDIT: crowd was helpful at times, though, today. That was nice to hear.

Why the Dez-bashing?.... he didn't see a catchable ball until the score was 28-10.

blocked FG... a pick in the redzone... 3rd and 2 with everyone running downfield and Weeden can't make 2 yards... that terrible 4th down play...
none of that was Dez's fault.

Dez Bryant is the most OVERRATED player in this franchises history.

Understand now?

He's a good player. He's probably a top 12 receiver but he's not top 5 and he darn sure isn't the best.

Turn to nbc and you'll see two that are better!

dez is top 5 good, but he's overrated when we say he's the best.

he didn't step up at all today. then again, could he of caught any of those horrific passes?

Cleveland desperate for a QB since Brian Sipe dumped this guy in two years. Tells you all you need to know.



Has owned Dez everytime they played.

I wish I had a retort for this. Dez needs to talk with Michael about getting physical.

Dez is one of the best WRs in the NFL right now, but these Michael Irvin comparisons have to stop.
