He doesn't look like he is in top form but still played a big role in the Boys getting the W. That's exciting feeling like he can get better

Dez also had a sweet double move in the last minute... Would have had 6 if Dak Had time. Dez is simply AMAZING!!!!! The degree of difficulty on that TD catch.. most just simply won't appreciate... Inside the 5 we have to start running him on slants or other moves... Until Dak masters the back shoulder...

They really need to put in work and get on the same page.

That was a hell of a catch by Dez though.

If Romo played tonight that Eagles secondary would have been gashed even more than they were. Dak just missed so many receivers downfield. Dez would have done more damage with Romo.

I think one of the lost plays in the game is the 1st down catch by Dez after that ridiculous holding call. He came up big. To think some people here, led by the idiot Skip Bayless, wanted to trade Dez.

If Dak was more accurate I think Dez would be pushing 200 yard day today.

I feel like even though Dak tried to force it to Dez (and overlooked his other receivers in doing so), Dez played within himself, didn't give in to his histrionic nature and made the plays when they counted.

If he continues in that vein my feelings about the brother will change.

No question about the accuracy. However, Dak's mobility saved several sack and rushed for several key first downs. Dak looked like Romo on that game winning play.

He dezerves the game ball.........the haterz don't dezerve him....bunch of dezerters

Some more sensitive types might call me a Dez hater. Others just see my commentary as objective.

My comments this week about Dez were prophetic.

My comments were:
-Dez doesn't separate from DBs but he can make catches when well covered
-Because he's usually so well covered Dez is a high risk, high reward receiver.
-I provided hard statistics that Dez only catches about 45% of balls targeted his direction in past two seasons
-Dez isn't high-percentage but he does deliver home-run type catches
-Romo is more of the gunslinger, precision QB to make Dez shine

I don't have the exact numbers but Dez was targeted about 10 or 11 times. He caught 4 balls. 4-10 ain't good, but they were high-reward plays. Exactly what I said we should expect.

Those numbers don't keep the chains moving. But Dez does provide quick strike big plays and can do so in a crowd..

The offense was at it's best when Cole Beasley and Witten were more central in the action. They create daylight and are more reliable targets for a young quarterback.

I just said he needs to catch the catchable balls his way. His touchdown was a pass that could've been dropped but he made the play a 70 mil man makes. It was never personal against Dez with me.
