I thought it takes weeks, if not months for a qb to get in sync with his wr? Braylon Edwards joined his new teammates Tuesday and caught five balls for over seventy yards and a td with limited snaps.

Our #1 WR has caught thirty balls and exactly two td's in fourteen games with the Cowboys.

I'm sure RW would like to have the ball thrown to him too.

Exactly. Has Roy ever been targeted 9 times in a game as a Cowboy? No way.

He made some great catches though.

I don't mind having Roy, and I understand we haven't really gotten him involved.

But I've also seen Roy run some lazy *** routes and we paid much more for him than the Jets did for Braylon, so that will eat at people.

There's no question that Roy needs to up his production, whether that requires the team to involve him more or whatever, we need to start getting our money's worth.

miami isn't a great team, and they continue to struggle.

No one said they were a great team, they are talking about how quickly he got involved in the gameplan while we still struggle to get Roy in the mix.

Miami has maybe the worst secondary in the NFL. They have the only safeties that could possibly rival ours in terms of suckage.

He went what? 5 for 60 and a TD?

Let's hold on before we crown his ***. I know Jon Gruden was excited, but he's ALWAYS excited. He loves everyone.

Edwards is better than Roy. It's not even close. He's faster, has better hands, runs better routes, and goes up and gets the ball better.

You're about a day late and a dollar short on that discussion...check out NFL Zone for lots of Braylon Bromance.

Exactly, Gruden is beyond annoying. Last night night every player and coach he talked about was the best in the business.

He makes Cris Collinsworth sound like a hater.

Absolutely. He had good hands in his NFL career until the last few years, when all of a sudden he started dropping stuff. He gets put on a good team and, like magic, his hands return. Roy has certainly never done anything on the Cowboys to impress anyone. Braylon went up and got some balls yesterday that Roy would never get. Hell, Roy wouldn't even be in position. He'd be ten yards behind.

Yes, because Braylon had one and half seasons where drops were a problem, I'm supposed to assume his hands are worse than Roy's.

Maybe if Roy ever got open, we'd see just how good his hands are. But he doesn't have great hands.
