Keyshawn Johnson and Chris Carter on ESPN mock Miles Austin for not playing today

this has lit up twitter, this will definitely be getting back to Miles. Could be a good thing.
 
it's funny some of these twitter comments are from fantasy owners. MIles has to hear it from them too lol.

Wrong he hasn't missed a game since 2011 until this year.

Yeah, I went to nfl stats and saw that as well so he has been so bad that it SEEMS he hasn't played. Also, starting a game and leaving after the first quarter with tight hammies isn';t the same as playing in every game. Just because he gets credited for playing in all 16 games doesn't mean he actually played all 16 games. Spin it however you like but he has been injured a lot since he got his paycheck. Do you honestly believe that we would all feel this way if he wasn't injured all the time. There has to be a kernel of truth for any story to grow and in this case that kernel is HUGE!
 
when you have two top professionals in your chosen craft saying you are not giving your best effort and that you have shut it down since you got paid, that story is going to gain legs.

Relax i agree i wish he was 100% but he did play in all games and almost had 1000 yards as our #2 receiver last year. I wish we could get a new training staff because it still baffles me that the team still seems to have hammy issues year in and year out.
 
They're right. You can say what you want about the ESPN panel, but they probably have a good handle on when a player can go or not. If Austin was soooooo injured, why did he stay on the sideline after he tweaked his hammy in KC?
I think Austin knows this is his last year in Dallas and doesn't want to risk a catastrophic injury by skipping out on games. Can't wait till he is gone.
 
They both have jobs to do. To say things to get attention.

its really not that hard for whoever is our wr2 to have 1000 yards given how much we throw it, I don't doubt Williams could near that total this year if Miles"I lost it in the lights" Austin doesn't make it back
 
Someone needs to call him out. I'd prefer it to be from someone within the organization, but a HOF'er works too I guess. Its a joke at this point. Either he has no tolerance for pain and isn't willing to play through minor injuries, or he isn't working hard enough to strengthen and condition his legs in the offseason. Its all on Miles at this point, stop being ridiculous and putting it on the training staff.

Now someone just needs to call out Rat too.

Keyshawn produced pretty well while here. Not a superstar no but then neither has Austin since he got his big deal. And you could never fault Keyshawns effort. He played injured or healthy.

Key, in his best, full, healthy, season with us, produced almost the EXACT same numbers as Miles put up LAST year.. you know, when everyone thinks he did nothing for us.
 
If he "could play," but won't that sounds like a coaches's decision. I wonder if they are just expecting the L today and are saving MIles for a game where he can make an actual difference? Yeah, I know--ridiculous.
