Twitter: Noah Brown on the OT turnover

[ElGatoGrande]

This year the WRs haven't been helping Dak out,,, and neither has the defense. He still struggles with delivering the ball to the right place but this team would be doing a helluva lot better if other players were doing their jobs.

Would you say CeeDee can have that same problem sometimes?

It happens to ALL receivers from time to time. The top level guys maybe once or twice a season. Less than 1% of their targets. I think CeeDee and guys like him probably 5-6 times a year.. more like 4-5% of his targets. Lower tier guys like Brown? I'd be shocked if it wasn't more than 10% of his targets. We've seen a lot of it from Brown.. Especially if you extrapolate on a per target basis he would have to be leading the team. Either him or Schultz who has also let more than his share get away.

Noah stood up and was accountable for the play like a man. That's all that needs to be done.

Well if that is true about Noah...it could be he just needs more targets? I justthink we've not used him in any consistent fashion...even as a #4. He's had trouble building his style. Probably stemming from limited college snaps and nagging injuries.


I think it happens to CeeDee more than what you say....he's just more talented and can disguise it better. You know he's itching to do RAC damage. He's got some good head scratchers too.

Brown can’t blame Dak the ball hit him in his hands. The blame is him not catching the ball 98% of the receivers catch.

 

[Captain43Crash]

Does anyone expect Brown to blame Dak?

Why would he blame Dak?

Did you see the replay?

Some people are clueless! Dak had a terrible interception earlier in the game, but this int. was ALL on the receiver!!!

 

[JustChip]

Of course that INT was on Brown, but not running the ball on third down in regulation was the biggest mistake of the game.

Not the biggest mistake. A mistake, but just one of many.

Noah actually has a pretty low drop rate this year. They just have happened at the worst possible time and have led to turnovers.

He’s a #4 forced into being a #3 bc that’s what Jerry gave us to work with.

The numbers are not "official" but Lamb is not anywhere among the league leaders according to the one site that purports to track drops. Schultz is the only Cowboy on the list with 5. He just happens to tied at 8th with a bunch of people one of whom is Amari Cooper.. which I found more than a little amusing. I think Lamb has had fewer drops this year than in years past. He's not Larry Fitzgerald level of concentration yet but he's clearly been better in that regard. If you click on just the NFC tab you see Lamb and Gallup show up with 3 each. Ironically Brown isn't on the list. So maybe the data has not been updated to include this weekend's games. Cause he had two in that one game.

You may be right.. Those drop numbers are always a bit subjective because different people seem to have different standards for what is catchable and what is not. So you always have to take the data with grain of salt.

Shows a lot of character taking responsibility.
I admire that.

I wish more posters would admit they’re wrong when proven wrong.

 

[Romo_To_Dez]

Brown is basically saying he expected for Dak to lead him, not throw it behind him, which he was doing, but it was deflected by the defender to make it somewhat catcheable..

The ball was not behind Brown.

 

[Whirlwin]

Prescott, he holds on the ball too long . Prescott he’s afraid to throw it. Now he does what they tell him to do and he’s wrong again. LMAO.

That guy has some sort of issue. It is an odd take that he has.

Noah has been very good all year. Especially in the position that he has been put in. He is making himself some money. He will get paid more next year.

 

[FTWayne]

he should since he's getting kicked to the curb when TYinjury machine arrives.

I don't see how he can answer you.

 

[JonesBoys]

I'm always under the belief that if the ball hits the receiver in the hands then they should catch it.

 

[Gemini Dolly]

Would it have been a first down had he caught it?
