Yeah. They suck. We know that. But kudos to CDL for gutting it out and fighting through a tough and painful injury today.

Way to show true leadership by putting your body on the line and even coming back in the game in what was all but a lost cause at that point.

At least someone wants to live up to their contract.

What he did was moronic. There is no glory in going out there and worsening an injury in game that was already not winnable . He was waiving off doctors and training staff . You want to credit him for being a competitor , fine. But what he did today was dumb going out there with that shoulder injury.

He knew the season was all but over if they lost today, and they were technically still in it so he tried to gut it out. I'll never look down on someone trying to play through injury unless he's a detriment to the team. That wasn't the case here. They need more toughness on that team.

He dropped a TD catch bc of that shoulder. Wanting to be out there isn't enough. You have to be healthy enough to do your job.

Love CeeDee. Not a diva WR. Never causes trouble. Great attitude. Works his butt off. He just wants to play and win.
Uhhh...what? His attitude has been bad on a couple of different occasions. I'll go with you on the wants to win thing. You'd have to define "trouble" since it can mean multiple things, but if you mean hasn't been suspended due to a drug problem, been charged with domestic violence, not travelled with the team due to being an a-hole, etc. then I'm with you there too. As for works his butt off...I'm not certain where to go with that. I think his holdout had a lot to do with NOT wanting to work his butt off in training camp.

This was just a weird attempt at knocking Dak. He did nothing today to warrant this thread lol. If you play hurt to the detriment of your team that’s not smart either.

Not sure if we can post links to NFL.com here but here you go...

CeeDee Lamb apologizes for outburst during Cowboys' loss to Ravens: 'That's not the player I am'​

He apologized because he was pressured to. A week later they claimed he was a malcontent because he said “jump ball Dak”…

You guys all claim they need more "dawgs" out there and one one steps up to be one you want to knock him down..why? (Rhetorical)

So what he dropped a TD pass in a lost cause game in a lost cause season? He was gutting it out and was still the best option on the field by far.

That’s not what makes you a dog though. Ferguson is a dog. You don’t become own overnight you either one or you aren’t.
