I understand where you're coming from, I really do. But dude, you cant base things of of Madden and a rating of 0-100. Football isnt played on paper. Its played on the field.

You're right, he doesnt have great hands. Cant beat press coverage anymore. Not the best route runner (but not bad either). Not a jump ball receiver (Roy is, so watch for that this upcoming year). Not a quick receiver. What he has is straight line speed, and strength. Thats pretty much it. But the guy produces. Just because Miles Austin may have better individual qualities, I highly doubt he ever becomes half the receiver that TO is.

Actually, Miles is slower than T.O. in Madden. :D

I don't understand the sudden love for Austin. The only thing Miles has proven is that he won't last a 16 game season. My other problem is that it seems that Dallas is MAKING Austin the #2, and not letting him PROVE he can be a #2.

Please draft a WR somewhere in the draft. :pray:

Austin looked good and he is very fast. He's also a big guy. I'm excited and it appears so are a lot of other people.

This thread is stupid.

I can't stand TO, but he's probably going to the Hall of Fame.

Miles Austin hasn't done jack squat in the NFL.

It's not stupid. Two pages already. And guess what. TO is no longer a Dallas Cowboy. Austin is.

people have this image in there head like TO is so athletic, or dominate.....no way...TO is just a big body guy with speed and smarts of the game, that's were is ends

His hands are not that great on a scale from 1-100 he has about 70-75 on hands....bad for an all pro

he cant jump, that has been proven, and he cant go up and get the ball, you would think he could, but he cant, hes just tall, and cant even fight for the ball, it was evident all the years hes been with us.......

his route running sucks, i will say his ability to fake a defender out is good, but beating them on a str8 up route running basis, he cant, sometimes he can with speed...hes not good on outs...or curls....just posts and streak routes, sometimes the slant

and hes a huge baby

Miles, is just as fast, i think faster than TO

Hands have improved, and look to be better than TO's

He can jump higher, and go up and get the ball....he has proven that

his route running can be better, and i think will be better, hes no worse then TO here...maybe a bit bitter

Now when it comes to faking a defender out, i dont think he has that down yet, and isnt as smart as TO yet, but he can run a str8 route without any jukes and get away from a defender, something TO cant do on a regular basism which is why i believe he is faster and quicker....

but TO's smarts....and his ability to be deceptive makes a better WR

If Miles develops these things..he will be better overall...talent wise i think way better

flame away


Are you stupid?

hahahaha people are gonna hate on this post man but I feel where you're coming from and have no problem with this thread. Its the off season and not much news coming out and the point of this message board is for discussions so whether folks are for or against this post point your objections in a debatable manner cause it makes for good discussion

I agree and would like to add that Doug Free is the next Larry Allen.

i would love to see who put the gun to your head to read the thread, life is that boring huh?

i don't get why you would read a thread you don't like, reply, and complain, just ignore it, is life that hard for you?

yea my opinion may be out there a little, but hey, its my opinion, you don't have to agree, but just because yours is different does not make mines dumb

so i guess you must be the dumbest piece of_____ on this planet, because i am sure you have an opinion, you sure do on this board, and some may disagree with you, so that makes you stupid as well

Miles Austin will out jump and go after the ball in the air better then T.O, But He's not faster, atleast not top speed. Maybe Austin is quicker off the step. Which is actually better. Better hands are still to be proven. But really T.O is older now, when He was younger He was a phenom. We just didnt use Owens right here in dallas.


We'll see what Miles does I have high hopes for him.
