LOL what? I'm not going to argue over this. I stand by my opinion. After watching that travesty today the least of my concern is Dez "dehydrating". If he has a "forearm" injury I don't see why they would hide it. They haven't hidden his back problems.

You're not arguing because you're argument is pretty bleh.

I think maybe you are trying to read to much into it. I am willing to accept the very basic explanation that he had cramps, wasn't feeling great, possibly due to dehydration.

I do not believe he was dogging it.

This. Front Office is looking pretty smart on letting him play out his final year.

Wish they would have looked as smart and allowed Lee to play out the final year of his. They could have signed him to a lower contract after missing 5 games last season.

My initial thought was that he was checking out but when he came back in for one play, then immediately left again (and the play yielded positive results), I knew something as wrong.

He went out on the field to take over for Street and appeared to be called back to the sidelines. It's best we wait and find out what the situation was before we jump to conclusions.

One of the knocks on Dez is he seems to disappear late in games.

Dez will get paid plenty but money is what's holding things up and situations like this where he's not on the field when we need him the most isn't going to help get him Calvin Johnson money which is what he's looking for.

Who cares, if we don't somebody else will. Then you get to see cowboys offense you saw tonight, just 10x worse.

You can only run the Beasley "Out Route" so many times. You can only get a lucky Harris jump ball catch so many times.

I did see him come back in, matter of fact I thought for sure he was in that play, then next thing I know I see him trotting off the field with the trainer. I don't question the guys heart at all, I just found it kinda weird how he was dehydrated so much. Maybe he didn't drink enough liquids before the game, maybe it was a fluke thing, or maybe it was partying the night before. We don't know at this point, but I'm sure if it is negative it will come out soon. Hopefully it's a non story.

Dez isn't going anywhere. The fan base is pissed off enough as it is with the product on the field. If Jerry allows Dez to get away the fans will abandon ship and the only way Jerry will keep his stadium filled every week is with the opposing fans. It sounded like there were more 49er fans than Cowboy fans out at the stadium today.

Dez gets so hyped up he wastes a lot of energy. It is strange that he would be dehydrated we'll just have to hear what he and Garrett have to say but he needed to be on the field and not Street. If he wants the big bucks he needs to out there in critical situations unless he's suffering a legitimate injury. It didn't appear there was anything that wrong with him that would keep him of the field in that situation.

He'll likely get what he wants from Dallas or pretty darn close. Jerry certainly isn't letting him go.

I wish he did let him go. Des doesn't need Dallas abd at our current state we really shouldn't resign Dez. They should trade him
