Dez isn't lightning fast. He took a bad angle on the long play, or he would have scored.

Plus, he was just gassed.

He always appears to run with a hitch in hist step. I've never seen him as a smooth, fluid runner.

I thought I remembered that & Tony looking like he was talking to him. Loudly.

I don't find Dez particularly careful with the ball but that can be fixed. He's a great receiver.

Dez is a lot like Emmitt Smith in that he only carries the ball in his left hand, and that he is a mid 4.5 guy who breaks long gainers, and plays faster with the ball in his hands.

Yeah, I think the cut across the field tired him out enough that he got caught. That was maybe my favorite play of the game. 3rd and 6 from from the shadow of your own goal post. That was a ballsy throw, and a great play by Dez.

A little gassed, but the defender had a dead sprint angle on him once he went laterally. Sure, if he had Tavon Austin speed he would have scored, but I think 99% of all other WRs get caught there (and likely about 30 yards back as they couldn't have made that cut read)

Really? I've always viewed him as a very fluid runner in many aspects. Similar plays below, no hitch.

He should have scored on that play. But no worries, allowed Beasley to score giving his fans reason to proclaim him the second coming. :)

Beasley has already shown me more than Harris has so far and there seem to be many more Harris lovers than Beasley lovers. Beasley is exactly what this offense needs to keep drives going.
