Let's give it up for this guy. Last week against Atlanta he nearly broke it for a touchdown on the first punt return of the game. This time he did. It was the first punt the Cowboys had returned for a touchdown since 2010 when Dez Bryant did it twice in his rookie season. That's a long time. I've got to give credit to the blocking as well. It has gotten much better on special teams. Joe DeCamillis has come under alot of fire and rightfully so, but these two games he has gotten his unit prepared and playing very good football. Getting back to Harris you know he may not have great speed, but he's very decisive and elusive. Kind of reminds me of Patrick Crayton as far as a punt returner. Hopefully Harris keeps it up because Dallas has been missing this kind of consistent threat on returns.
 
Harris needs to be integrated into the offense more. He has the ability to make a play when he gets the ball into his hands.
 
Cole Beasley does too. Did you see how quick he got open on that 1st down conversion? Romo and himself could sync up like he and Robinson did last year.

Yes... less O-tree and more of Harris and Beasley please.

Did you see the Eagles player trying to rip Beasley's helmet off after that catch? Cole even pulled at his helmet afterwards to indicate that the defender had been yanking it. I thought it was illegal to go for the head area.

This. He had that big catch last year at SF too I believe.
 
Harris is the exact opposite of AOA. Not overly fast but elusive and aware.

Beasley is not a big guy. He's an injury waiting to happen.
 
No one likes a complainer after a win, but one of my big complaints is how slow this team is to make a change that needs to be made.

I really think Harris and Beasley deserve more opportunities. Maybe they will come in time.

He is actually thicker than Desean Jackson.

He is short but that could be an advantage as it will be harder for him to get blown up by anyone.

I do think Romo will have to a bit judicious about how he uses him and try to keep the ball low where he will have a natural advantage.

That was Jesse Holley.

Oops...That's right. We still need to get him in there more and give him a chance to shine.

You're thinking about Jesse Holley. I don't think Harris had a catch last year but he did have a couple of returns.

I do hope Harris works his way into the passing offense more because he has good strength, quickness and running skills. I'm still not sure where he is cerebrally in the passing offense.

Did Ogletree do anything today? Pathetic.
I don't think he had a reception. If we continue to go with Otree as our number three for the rest of the year, I think what we can expect is a good game followed by 2 or 3 non-productive ones. Too inconsistent for my taste.
 
I always liked Harris...hope he gets more playing time...did Ogletree even play tonight....this is a good sign.....
 
IMO I thing he needs to play out of the backfield a lot. He would be fantastic in motion, etc.

Unfortunately we will never see that.

If you can play, you can play. You don't keep a guy on the sideline because he might get injured, especially when he's a backup. You play the hot hand and ride it until it doesn't produce anymore.
