Jerry Jones: Quick healer Dez Bryant is Superman; Cowboys targeting Week 7 return

[cowboyuptx]

Without Romo, we're still between a rock and a hard place, so just make sure we don't rush Dez back prematurely. But it would be incredible and awesome if he were legitimately ready by the Giants game.

Dez must already be running for them to continue to be this optimistic. Or very close to running. Any word on that leak out of Valley Ranch?

 

[Macnalty]

Even huger mistake if Weeden is still behind center. He'll either force passes to Dez, or ignore him completely.

More worried about the power of the force than the lack of attention. Dez even with Weeden will command plenty of double attention which should give more room for the offense.

So if Dez IS Superman? Why were we waiting for the market to be set this offseason? Instead of just getting him into camp and preparing for the biggest season we have had around here in a long time. A re-visit of this entire offseason is exposing some fatal flaws. I mean...there was a period this offseason where fans on this very forum were like "let Dez leave...we have Terrance Williams". "Forget DeMarco Murray...anyone can run behind this OL" Or the front office assessment of the RBs we had in house..and how "good we feel about them" And no one throws a better ball than Brandon Weeden....and with Romo taking every Wednesday off....he has developed some really good chemistry with Terrance Williams....which they showed us over and over and over again on Sunday night /sarcasm off!

Why the hell would any owner pay a WR more than they have to? The Jones were completely right to wait.

I criticize the timing of it...I think his inactivity this offseason led to his injury

You think inactivity caused a broken foot? Maybe the hydration problem, but the broken foot? No.

You'd think a fractured bone is one thing they'd be able to determine fairly conclusively if it were sufficiently healed or not. Isn't that what xrays pretty much do? Or am I being naive?

That's what I'm saying. They will not rush him. I would think he will not be allowed to return until they know for sure he is ready.

That's what I'm saying. They will not rush him. I would think he will not be allowed to return until they know for sure he is ready.

I'd think so, too. Though they seem to be suggesting he might be ready after the bye. Pretty impressive, if he really is.
