My Take on Dez

[Redball Express]

i think he's a top 3 WR in this league and we are not using him properly. The coaching staff doesn't know how to develop WRs or maximize their talents. Dez needs more jump balls in the red zone and Dak needs to force him the ball when he's single covered. I think having him return punts will keep him engaged more​

He's been injured so much it's hard to expect a year like he had in 2014.

He seems to have lost some quickness.

He doesn't get separation.

This means throwing to him risks interceptions with somebody right there.

DAK has pulled back and used others which is what needs to happen.

.Dez needs to work on his routes. He is not the best at that.

I like Dez but we can not make him our featured WR anymore.

By getting the ball spread..we increase single coverage for Dez making him more dangerous.

I

Have seen dez in the slot..this year

Dez doesn't really understand the option/read routes, so it's hard to work him in the slot much.

Why don't you go ahead and name the only 2 WRS that are better than Dez. I'll wait.

Wrs with more TDS then dez that are active and still playing ... Larry fitz, andre johnson, Steve smith, marqez colston, anquan boldin, Brandon Marshall so.....some good company if you ask me I don't see any of the WRS they mentioned on this list so what are you talking about nothing really

.....and by the way, Andre Johnson is retired.

this offense dosent seem like it needs one really with the ability to run the football so well

We'll just have to disagree on that one because I saw it for myself last game, a safety is often over the top to help with coverage on Dez. This is something you just can't see on tv, it's been this way since people were saying Bobby Taylor shutdown Irvin 1 on1, you can't see that dedicated safety that allows that corner to be agressive.

As long as the QB sees it that is all I care about. lol

Dez is really good. Only Romo knows how to make him look truly elite.

You have to pinpoint accurate with back-shoulder and high-point throws to utilize Dez' ability to catch balls in traffic. Otherwise, he's a pretty easy cover for cornerbacks.

He's too slow, and his routes are too poor, to use like a typical top receiver.

 

[perrykemp]

Lol 17tds in one season, who was the last WR to have more then that in 1 season? I'll wait..

You mean back in 2014?

Are touchdowns all that matter? Jordy Nelson is on pace to lead the league this year with 13-14. Is anybody argueing Nelson is top 3 or anywhere near it?

 

[NextGenBoys]

He gets zero separation. Zero. Zilch. Nada.

Might be due to the routes the team has him run. He sure put a move on Minn with his double move for a 60 yard gain.

Sturm had a piece recently where he talked about the predictability of Dez's routes. They said if he was in the slot, he was more often than not running an out. Split wide it was a go, in, or comeback.

We look downright unstoppable on offense when the coaches are schemeing the game to win. We look average at best when the coaches get lazy and just think our guys are going to out execute the other team.

Lol yes, I'll take 25 TDs over 2500 yards any day..

So you got Nelson in your Top 3 this year?

 

[blumayne38]

So you got Nelson in your Top 3 this year?

Why not? You make it seem as if Nelson sucks..

 

[Sarge]

Why not? You make it seem as if Nelson sucks..

...... so you have both Jordy and Dez in the top 3 which means either Julio or Antonio Brown are outside the top 3 which is laughable. I see what I'm dealing with here.

I dont the NFL does jordy leads all Wrs in TDS lol

 

[Sarge]

Do you think Drew Brees is the best QB in the league?

 

[reddyuta]

I think more Jump balls in the RZ is a good idea,Dez got a lot of his TDs that way when he got 16 TDs in a season.
