What's more overrated? This offensive line couldn't hold up against a 3 man pass rush and Dez never comes down with the ball when it counts.

Easily Dez ... I don't remember Dak getting hit often and I don't think they gave up a sack. The Giants stacked up to stop the run and it worked( we couldn't beat them with the pass) , give them credit.

This is crazy talk.

Our OL is incredible.. Look at other teams OL play.


Dez plays for a coaching staff that lets defenses take him away.. It is what it is.

Cmon man I know you're a Dez homer , but I've never seen a player have so much hype and have so much trouble controlling the ball. Dez needs to just relax , get his feet down and hold onto the ball. He IS NOT elite anymore. Dez also doesn't run great routes, watching AJ Green today vs REvis made me realize how much Dez is lacking in route running.

I feel your pain.

The production of both was disappointing, at a time when they needed to play their best, in support of their rookie QB. I'll be more comfortable when game 5 gets here; we should match up better, and at least the pass protection looked good and hopefully will keep both our QBs upright.

How many times have we seen Dez not control a ball well coming down? 2 or 3 times?

Now all of a sudden the guy who before last year was the best in the NFL at finding pay dirt can't catch a ball in the endzone? Please.

Dez and our Oline is incredible and this thread ******* sucks.

Y'all complaining about the spectacular stuff, I just wished he got open with his feet more.

We need 100 yard games out of him.

Andre Johnson use to catch 12 passes a game(seemingly regularly) and he never left his feet. Why can't Dez get open? He's more weapon than wide receiver.

Dez is involved in too many "did he catch that or not" moments. He needs to just make the catch and be done with it if he's to be considered a top 5 WR. The OL isn't good against beefy interiors.

The o-line was well below average and Dez was invisible.

You can add Zeke to that. He did nothing special.
