Rico is the MAN

given enough snap, rico could be a lot more than a red zone threat

Putty with nothing to say, what is the world coming to ?

True and could be a chain mover and 3rd down.

Thanks for posting this. I kept hearing about his catch but I must have missed it somehow yesterday.

Love that Rico

True , very true indeed @Ranching -do you have anything to add ??

Jarwin sucks. Can't block and he can't catch. He dropped a pass that hit him right in the hands. that would have gone for a big play. Rico at least hasn't dropped a pass that hit him in the hands so far.

Rico should be our #1 pass catching TE threat.

I didn't get to watch much of the game but from what i saw & the highlights, I think all the TE's did their job blocking on several of the big plays. Can't speak to the catching but I think the "can't block" narrative is no longer true, if it ever was.

anybody notice who the TE's were out front blocking on Dak's TD run? Hint, there were two of them and Rico wasn't one of them.

They didn't make a block. Besides who cares. I said pass catching TE. Rico is our best pass catching TE.

LOL. Watch that play again. Both Swaim and Jarwin were leading the way for Dak. Both blocked their men perfectly. Church came up and had a chance, but took his usual bad angle. But Swaim and Jarwin both blocked that play extremely well. Now, Jarwin can't catch a cold, but for what this team wants to do, he's a much better blocker than Rico.

Yes it was a good blocks by our TEs. I still think if Rico can get his blocking assignments down he will be much better TE. Honestly, Dallas needs to stop using the 2 TE sets so much and spread the offense out more.

I've seen Jarwin get obliterated by pass rushers before.

Ive heard the so called scouts say he’s incredibly slow but on that one I thought he showed NFL caliber TE speed.

I think they meant learning the playbook!

 

[Biggems]

Rico and Swaim should be primary TE’s, Jarwin is hot garbage.

I agree.....jarwin reminds me of fasano, in that he has size and can get open, but has stone hands.

He's been here 3 years now. If he hasn't gotten his assignments down by now, chances are he isn't ever going to get them down.

I could care less about blocking assignments. He needs more experience. Just put him in there as much time as Jarwin and Swaim and he'll be fine.

Besides, Dallas needs to stop using the 2 TE formation so much. Its too predictable.

You should care about blocking assignments because we are a run first team.

there are 2 strategies. one is to put more blockers upfront. the other is to force the d to spread apart thereby reducing the number of defenders in the middle.

Rico should be in there a lot, even split out wide, he can get the mis-match and move the chains.

Rico looks like a man against boys... there is just no way a DB is gonna line up against him in the slot and consistently keep him from making plays. It is time, IMO , to start taking advantage of what he brings to the table.
