Pickens is good but annoying

Not only does he have a big mouth, but the guy wants to talk crap to the other team while his team is getting their teeth kicked in.

He also has this cringe flop routine that he does atleast once a game. He did it against Washington trying to draw a flag, then he did in against Denver while going out of bounds, which BTW was right in front of the cowboys bench, which made his own teammates look at him like he was an idiot.

I expect flop routines to be done in the NBA, not the NFL. In the NFL, the refs are not calling that. It's not even on their radar of calls to make.

Teammates on the sideline had that look like "cmon bro, please stop". I was embarrassed for the guy myself.

Pickens has that dog in him, I'll give him that, but at the same time, he is a childish bafoon.

Pickens is like one of those ADHD, hyperactive little kids who can't control himself at times.

You're kidding me I see players in the NFL doing it all the time This not the first time and it doesn't annoy me he's on our team just like when Terrell Owens was here didn't bother me at all dez Bryant the antics it is what it is him trying to draw penalties is helping our team...

But nice that you had to have a special post about how annoying he is because your post is annoying me..

Legitimate owner/GM you mean. We all know what Jerry is gonna do. Tag Pickens, piss his agent off, and have a long offseason hold out.

....and to add to the usual process, blame Pickens for his contract being so much (along with Dak, CeeDee) and can't sign any other notable players to improve the team. Should also be interesting to see what he does with Williams as well.

Did you pay attention to the pass protection? There wasn't any. Maybe that is why Dak was unable to go to Pickens more often, because Pickens' routes take longer to develop, and Dak simply didn't have the time to find him.

Our lazy and castrated Oline played with no guts, no tenacity, no meanness and no toughness. They got pushed around, instead of they doing the pushing. THAT is why we failed. Same thing happened to our Dline.

Blame it on the oline, blame it on the tight ends, blame it on the running backs, or blame it on the wide receivers—just avoid placing any responsibility on a quarterback who hasn't been able to escape the pocket or extend plays to buy more time. Regardless, the statistics do not support your argument regarding having time to throw. Dak had an average time to throw of 2.62 seconds compared to Nix's 2.42 seconds. Additionally, Nix had an average depth of target of 12 yards, while Dak's was only 7.9 yards. These stats directly contradict your claim that Dak didn't have enough time to throw. It's time to accept that Dak isn't the player you and others have been promoting to fans for the past 10 years.

I love him. Without him there would be no reason to watch this team. I wish we had 21 more guys like him

Like clockwork. Will blame Bland and Smith as well.

The more you keep with your Dak hatred, the more ignorant you sound. Everyone has seen Dak scramble for yards, even first downs, in every game, so for you to say that he doesn't is crazy obsessed.

Dak has tunnel vision

You're annoying....

Not good either so yeah. Pickens is a stud. Everyone is "annoying" when you lose.

Most probably because Pickens isn't the primary read and that requires Dak to go through his porgressions... Dallas has had plenty of situations in Dak's career where the 1 and 2 were both way above competent, including Lamb and Cooper, but since Dak is mediocre outside his first read, the second WR will disappear...

Agree. What happened to the WR's who would produce, but act like it was no big deal?

I believe a coach could put an end to anything said coach disliked if said coach had a pair of bollocks.

His last coach couldn’t lol it’s just who he is. As long as he’s producing abd not getting penalties I don’t care how much he trash talks

I don't doubt Pickens' ability as a WR, but there is something about him that scares me off a little bit. It's like one day he is going to self-destruct or something. But I also admit as fans we are far removed from these guys so we have no idea about their personalities.
