The Tight End Bermuda Triangle

[gtb1943]

He got hurt approx 4 games in
Never seemed the same after he returned about game 6/7...

Seemed half step slow, tenative

That concussion also counted; this year really is his make or break

Aikman picked LaFleur then went into broadcasting …

Aikman had no business selecting players in the draft.

At the time Aikman was disgruntled this made hm happy .

calm YOURSELF
look at 2023
and neither one of the others is starter material no matter what you claim

23 was two yrs ago . Ferguson lost almost three yards per catch in 24 plus had ZERO TD’s . If you’re happy with that production 7-10 must have been acceptable .

In all seriousness Troy Aikman is the best TV football analyst . Radio has some good ones also , Kurt Warner Mike Mayock as example .

Couldn't agree more

Did you watch 2024 ? I’m sorry your TE didn’t have a good year . If you’re going for a second contract you have to pile good years together otherwise you dip back into the draft for a replacement . Might be the thinking behind using a 2nd on Schoon . Schultz was allowed to let ride into the Houston landscape Ferguson may be next .

No he didn't have a great 2024, but he was Injured part of the year, Schoon earned some of the load while Furguson was our or not at 100%, and he played much of the year with a backup QB who was only capable of moderate passing stats. And even then he clearly wasn't limited 4-5 yards per catch because his average was about double that.

You don't just pretend 2023 didn't happen.

As for the contract, that's a separate matter that factors in more than just his ability.

2023 was not 7-10 2024 . If fans and more importantly the FO and coaches look at 2024 honestly they cannot look at the team or the TE’s and think success .

The team not having success doesn't mean individual players have no value.

The team not having success doesn't mean individual players have no value.

Please don’t spin my posts . I said the TE position was the “ Bermuda Triangle “ three of them all at sea lost hardly any contribution in 2024 . If you want to see a better team in 2024 more production has to come from this group .
