Here's why Dez Bryant is the real problem for the Dallas Cowboys

This was posted on ESPN. I think it goes a long way in showing the difference in our offense vs how it was being run early in the season.

With Dez not out there, Dak really was scanning the field for an OPEN target. Now though, he seems to be targeting Dez even when others are wide open.

Dak and Dez have the lowest QB/WR completion percentage in the league.

THIS is what's wrong with our offense.

Where are the Dez apologists now?

I told everyone the offense was better without him.

 

[Redball Express]

I agree that something is off. Like you said when dez was hurt I said oh boy dak is gonna struggle. Dead wrong, he excelled without dez. You put dez in and this offense went to hell. I don't know what the problem is but usually when your #1 comes back it picks the offense up.

It's what happens when money decides your players.

We just went thru this with Romo.

He too was too expensive not to play.

Now look what has happened?

Perhaps we need to get our other receivers playing.

Yeah I'm always against big contracts. I would of never paid Crawford or dez big money. Dez would of got 40-50mil not 70

Good 1

1. Never said he was average

2. We would have a good record without Zeke

You think Cleveland would have a winning record with Zeke?

Now bashing Dez has become a sport that most around here like to participate in, I was bashing Dez Bryant when he was putting up 93, 1300+, 13TD.. 88, 1300, 16TD seasons

Why was I bashing him then? Because I could see then what is obvious now.

When he cant out athlete an opponent, he's useless.

He wraps up with saying Dez needs to be put in a position where he doesn't have to think.

I hope he's booed at AT&T Stadium Sunday night. He deserves every bit of it.

So for the month (4 games) before the Giants game on roughly 8 targets a game Dez was averaging 88 yards and a TD. Many of those games we lose without him specifically looking at Philly and Minnesota.

But suddenly Dak is awful in a game and Dez becomes the problem. All of these crazy people like @xwalker who were silent as hell for over a month... out from under the bridge they have swiftly crawled. Shameful.

Dez destroys football for years with Romo. Suddenly a rookie 4th round pick who was never supposed to start is thrust into the fray and suddenly Dee's opportunities and. Production go down and he is to blame?

Joke.

so we have evolved from all the wr's suck and the coaches suck to thursday's mantra of Dez sucks I see.

Dak is still scanning the field..

Showing a still image of him looking at Dez while he is reading the defense doesn't mean he has stopped reading the defense and is just locked on Dez.

 

[Parche]

It's started haven't you seen that wackjob running around talking crap about Zeke calling him average and that the Cowboys would be 11-2 with any RB.

RBs are interchangeable, Ive been told. So yeah, there are people who think that Zeke is not the key player on our O like I think.

Winning record? I guess not. 3-4 wins? Yeah, maybe. Zeke´s one of those players that you build your team around and can change the look of an entire Offense. Zeke and a few o-linemen, of course.

What happened on this play and what was the down and distance?

 

[AmishCowboy]

So how many NFL jobs have you been fired from?

About the same amount as you

 

[tyke1doe]

About the same amount as you

And that's why I'm not criticizing Lombardi's observation, honed through years of experience in the NFL.

Thanks for posting ! Good info! Have a good day bro!

So Dez played well with Romo, great chemistry, tore the league up from 2012 to 2014. A new QB comes in, and the "lack" of production is on Dez, not the rookie QB...

I think the real problem is the $70,000,000 contract signed on July 15, 2015.

Also, this offense was better this year when Dez was out. I hate to admit it, but that's what I think.

Correlation is not causation.

 

[Clove]

I said during the game, every time we throw to Dez, bad things happen. Dez is not stepping up as a lead receiver, he just doesn't know his craft enough. I don't know what he does outside of practice, but if he had the Jerry Rice mentality, this team would be running away.

 

[Clove]

He got paid. Yes. To be fair though, he also lost his QB. There's a trust with Romo that is impossible to be matched by Prescott
based solely on time together. Not hatin' on Dak at all here. They just aren't going to be on the same page very often until next
season. I expect they will spend time working together in the offseason.

Well, he has synergy with the other receivers. Just saying...
