Needs to catch the ball better when it hits him in the hands. But if he can catch the ball more consistently then he can be a solid WR.

I wonder how you get that to be a natural instinctive movement for a guy who does the opposite...
Live on the Juggs machine?
Constant preaching?

I don't know... Maybe he never will become that guy, but he's just fine as a #2 which is what we actually want him to be.

Too bad teams don't carry backup #1 wideouts on their roster...

The drop yesterday was a no doubt about it hit him on the hands drop. And it killed a drive.

It's one thing to drop a pass but his drops have hang time to it, we're lucky his drop last week did not result in an INT.

Terrance reminds me of Alvin Harper when he made that catch against frisco.

Most of what people are calling drops are actually good plays by defenders to get their hands on the ball.

I disagree with this. He drops a lot of passes it seems. He also doesn't have the ability to play the ball in the air and go get it.

He is heavily reliant on QB to hit him in accurately in stride.

He had 1 drop in the Giants game. The other incomplete passes to him were batted away by defenders.

He does drop passes.. but the body catcher has made some huuuuuuuuge plays for us. We wouldn't be where we were last year without him and that's a fact.

Does Terrance really have more drops than the average receiver? He drops some but he more than makes up for it in my opinion. I know one thing, he has become one of my favorite Cowboys. I enjoy watching him in action.

Not sure, but the Cowboys need him to be above average right now and I don't think he has it in him. He is a barely good #2 at this stage.

He is an excellent #2 receiver. Can he be a good #1? We still don't know. It would help if Romo was throwing the ball, but supposedly Weeden has a cannon, so there may be some fun moments.

He still seems to be at the point where he relies mainly on straight-line speed to get separation.

Dez drops far fewer
Witten drops far fewer
Beasley drops far fewer
Escobar drops far fewer

I don't know about league averages, but Terrance drops a ton of passes compared to other Cowboy receivers. And those drops are often like turnovers in that they kill drives. I like the guy and he can sure be a threat, but ouch, he is a liability sometimes.
