Looks like Jason Witten has that young burst back

[Melonfeud]

I think he's got plenty of straight line speed but not so much laterally.

I downloaded that stiff arm gif he punked that Bengals d.b. with from last year,,, always hilarious seeing that.

His acceleration is what hurts him. He was made moves to make defenders miss

Was always a smart football player. Hence, 10+ yrs with the same Club. Good Cowboy.

I'm catching some of his routes and he has that young burst back. Dude looks like he can run a 4.6 forty right now. Which fountain has he been sipping from?

Probably #95's.

He didn't start out as a Clydesdale.....but he wasn't Secretariat either. He was a great Cowboy and extended the career of a certain Cowboy QB. God bless Jason Witten.

With all due respect, he's about as reliable as they come and has been for what seems forever. He always amazes me how he manages to get open in such a routine manner. He seems to have instincts that tell him exactly what to expect from an opponent, no matter who it is. Granted, he's not as nimble as he once was but obviously, it makes no difference.

Thats exactly what l was trying to say.

I thought you did quite well. Hell, any QB in the league would be crazy not to take full advantage of Jason . . . want a first down? Witten's your guy!! I could go on about him all day but we all know what he can do! He's just an "Automatic Mover of the Chains" personified . . .

 

[Hoofbite]

Doubtful but doesn't matter. He's a tactician and doesn't need burst. Probably hasn't had burst for 7 or 8 years.

 

[big dog cowboy]

No, he's mastered how to deal with subpar qb's.

What, what?

When did this happen???

 

[Trouty]

What, what?

When did this happen???

Never. He hasn't replied to me, BD, either. Witt has had amazing QB play between Romo and Dak.

In fact, Witt is very fortunate.

 

[Big D]

He's had subpar QBs?

Like, wut???

I guess it is easy to forget what was taking place between Romo and Dak.

Ha! yeah..Jason is a little low on BURST. Maybe...Spurt...that's the most anyone can hope for...

I predict he has one of those flux capacitor type runs this year where his helmet is yanked off and he keeps steamrolling ahead like the beast that he is.

The "Witten Rule" will end that play the spit second his helmet comes off.

WHUT???
When did this happen?
What does that pay a year,cuz' if it's a comfortable income I might pick up a couple night classes to become one TOO!

Lol! Great point!

 

[Bullflop]

I agree with all you said. I just feel he has more speed then most give him credit for

There are definitely times when he can surprise with his speed, once he gets rolling. It usually happens when he's had a chance to rest and is fresh enough to expend a considerable amount of energy. As much action as he sees in games where he plays every play, it's a wonder he's able to run at all, much less to so with anything resembling adequate speed.

Perhaps so, nevertheless a pretty good poster as well, in my humble opinion!

Consider the fact that when friends choose to tease, it's a sign that they like you, sir.

I saw that camp clip of Byron Jones with his arms wrapped around #82's waist line like a belt just to keep him from pulling away,,, Witten looked explosively fast TO ME!
