Not better?
Mate, you really are in denial.
Even so, who has more production this year. Yep, thought so.
Even the best player in the universe, even your magnificent Romo, isn't worth a forged schilling if he is chronically injured.


I can tell you're the type that get persuaded by whatever the ESPN types push.


2014 I doubt you could find very many people who would say Dez isn't the best WR in the NFL.


Then he gets injured a couple of years and guys like you are quick to pounce.


ODB is a finesse, non physical, flamboyant Wide Receiver... I doubt any DB would ever choose trying to guard Dez over ODB.

ODB also doesn't play in an offense that doesn't force feed him the ball anymore and he's been in turmoil all year except last week. The guy is overrated and not even a top 5 WR for me.

In no order:

Antonio Brown

AJ Green

Julio Jones

Dez Bryant

Demaryius Thomas

All of those guys im taking over Odell Beckham. I want football players.. Not Ice skaters in pads.

Odell is the new Desean Jackson.

This is not about the mercurial Beckham.
It's about an injured, meetings-averse diva player.
For such an elite player Mr. We Be The Best in the NFL (again, 2014) hasn't done squat.
Call me on the team phone when he does.
And you should be excited to soon see your fave player, Wench. Dont hurt yourself rooting for him....

If the meetings thing were an issue no way does Dallas sign him. Again.. Stay off ESPN. They are looking for a rating and drama.


Just say... You are of the belief that if you're injured than you're not good anymore.

We have some feeble posting here folks. Very weak. Until somebody can address these numbers...nobody got nothing but noise.

Catch rate for Cowboy receivers (completed balls/attempted)

2016
C Beasley 85%
T Williams 83%
J Witten 67%
Dez Bryant 48%
R Butler 47%

2015:
J Witten 74%
C Beasley 69%
T Williams 56%
R Butler 46%
Dez Bryant 43%

Sorry bro but this tough guy talk is silly in this case. We aren't asking for a guy to fill a gap and plug a hole on 4th and one, but to get open and catch a pass.

Aside from maturity issues, Odell and Dez don't belong in the same sentence. Odell in the Cowboy offense would go off for 2,500 yards.

Place a period after the word "good" and you are closer to the truth, matey.
The good will resume as soon as Diva Dez comes back and actually makes some reception like Julio Jones and company.
Now go back to your Wench fan site, bloke. They need you.

LOL he can't even do that in an offense that force feeds him so how is he going to do that in Dallas?

TO is one of the best WR's ever and he wasn't even doing that.


Odell is good but he isn't some kind of force on the football field like ESPN tries to push. The best thing that ever happened to that guy was his catch in a loss and he's lived off of that ever since.

On the other hand.. Dez gets called for an incompletion in a playoff game and he is overrated and cant catch.

You'd have to be a real window licker to discount his talent or what value he adds to this team. Quit whining about injuries already. They happen. And in the NFL, they happen a lot. Do these same idiots bash Sean Lee non-stop for his absurd list of injuries? I'm guessing no.

Actually, yes. Sean Lee was a big topic around here two years ago, even last year. Many of us - including me - were saying he's too injury prone.

Of course, the best way to stop that chatter is to stay on the field, which he has been able to do.

Slot WRs and TEs are always going to have a higher catch rate then outside WRs.

They generally are catching shorter passes and have more field with two way gos so they are going to get more separation.

The funny thing.. Nobody denied that Lee was good.


People have actually convinced themselves that Dez Bryant isn't one of the best at his position when healthy. Dez Bryant is an elite NFL WR when healthy. The guy is THE BEST at finding pay dirt. Not Julio, Antonio, none of them. Dez Bryant is a Touchdown Machine.

Lee has always played well and his injuries derailed what would have been some Pro Bowl seasons. Dez hasn't performed well when he's tried to play through some of his injury issues the past couple of seasons, which has added to the frustration. He hasn't performed that well and he's missed games.

WR's tend not to play well with hurt legs or feet.

He did early in his career. He was having ankle issues due to not wanting to go down, remember? He would struggle and fight for every yard and it was leading to some lower leg injuries. He injured an ankle and looked like he might not play the following week but ended up playing and returning a punt for a TD. He didn't look hampered at all.

Doomsday... That's true...But Dez's catch rate over the past two years isn't even 50%!

All the top wide-outs are catching a far higher percentage...
J.Jones ATL 62%
A.J.Green CIN 71%
C.Beasley DAL 85%
M.Crabtree OAK 66%
M.Jones DET 63%
T.Y.Hilton IND 59%
K.Britt LARM 69%
M.Thomas NO 73%
T.Williams SD 66%
D.Adams GB 65%
M.Evans TB 53%
S.Diggs MIN 71%
W.Snead NO 78%
T.Benjamin SD 71%
B.LaFell CIN 64%
D.Baldwin SEA 76%

In the past two years...
Dez hasn't been elite
Dez hasn't been great
Dez hasn't been good
Dez hasn't even been decent!
