Those are some serious jets the Cowboys can field.

I'd like the Cowboys to get all three out there at the same time to see what they can do together. Felix in the backfield, Miles and Ogletree out wide, and the two TEs Bennett and Witten out there with them. This might be the Cowboy's most dangerous formation.

Ogletree only caught one pass but he has a good burst. He showed me something.

Wouldn't it be great to win with 3 undrafted FAs (Romo, Austin, Ogletree) out there!

I agree. Who was the idiot that said "If it ain't broke don't fix it"? He hasno idea what he's talking about. Let's get Ogletree out there. Let's get Victor Butler out there. Just screw everything that's happening right now. We're winning but what the hell. I'd like to see Ogletree get in on the action. :banghead:

Olgetree makes one catch, and now we've got people clamoring for him to start.

God, I will rue the day if Olgetree manages to get a TD.

It's not the time to force Ogletree into the lineup, but I must admit: I'm liking the young man's potential.

I'd be a little surprised if we're not talking highly of him in three years.

Ogletree actually injured his knee on that one catch.

He came back in but he limped off and got looked at by the trainers.

Ogletree doesn't have to start. It would be nice to get him some playing time, though.

Roy W ain't exactly lighting it up, if you haven't noticed. Ogletree is faster than Roy and gets better separation. Ogletree might just be a better fit with Romo and his style. That doesn't mean Ogletree is a better WR than Roy.

Speed is great. Just ask the Eagles. However, there is something to be said for quality routes, chemistry with the QB, dependable hands, experience, that sort of thing. Let him come in for mop up duty. If he shows he can do what you think he can do, the cream will rise to the top....always does.

Actually Ogletree runs great routes, and Romo is one of his biggest supporters.

I seldom agree with The Rat, but I think he is right about that.

I think Sam Hurd needs to get more looks too.

The guy will come up big if given opportunities.

I wonder how much faster Felix would be without that brace... OTree just looks like a player!

He's gotten plenty of opportunities this year.

Today was the first time he made play worth mentioning.

Except for the Denver game where he came up big twice in the last drive.


Romo and Hurd have better chemistry than Roy.

Im a big Roy fan but until those 2 get on the same page i'd let Hurd cut into his snaps.

That's not entirely true - he made that big grab on 4th down in the Denver game in our last possession on an ad libbed play between himself and Romo - I think the play went a good 60 yards in total.

In the end, he couldn't beat Champ Bailey on two consecutive plays but you can blame Romo and Garrett for gong to that matchup at all. The HOF CB beat the #4WR/ST guy - did this surprise anyone.

thanks. You should apply for vinny cerato's job. You both seem to be qualified to be general managers of an nfl franchise.

But failed to come up "big" twice when it really mattered.

He also dropped another TD against KC.

I don't see where all this Hurd love is coming from. So he can score td's when linebackers cover him...Big deal. Make plays when a db is covering you.
