The myth will never end.

Kid forge your own path. You have a chance to take this franchise to heights the glorified doofus could only dream of taking us too! Doofus should be following you! He can't lead anybody.

Hush yo mouth.

That doofus one of the best at his position all time.

That route is on the OC/HC
Not true. Many times over the years it had been said that Witten runs mostly option routes. So Witten is running the route that the defense is giving him, while they are sitting at the sticks. Tony is getting the ball to the reliable guy thinking he can break one tackle. It used to be money. Witten no longer has the speed and relies on his savvy veteran moves to get the first.

In early May, The Cowboys Wire noted some profound advice given to Cowboys’ rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott by DeMarco Murray. It looks as if Elliott is taking the advice to heart and plans on mirroring All-Pro tight end Jason Witten in every way he can; beginning with learning how to carry himself as a professional.

Witten has taken notice and likes what he sees already from the young ball carrier.

“My impression’s been good,” Witten said to Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “I think he’s humble. It’s only been two weeks, and we haven’t even put the pads on to understand that.

10 time pro bowler and he's a doofus?

Bud, I get drunk too at times but you take the cake.

Witten is not teaching Zeke to be a TE he is teaching him what it takes to be a professional. By all accounts Witten brings it every day game or practice he puts in the work and dedication to be a great player. Zeke and others would be served well to follow the lead of Jason Witten

He's probably teaching EE how to prepare for practice, to prepare for a game, to take care of your body, to study film, to read defenses, to know what each player on the offense does, etc.

When you get a player doing all those things AND one who has massive talent, watch out.

Believe me, it's rarer than you think - even on the professional level.

If EE wants to learn from the guy i consider to be the consummate Pro, then I'm good with that

Add that to EEs talent and he may go places

I agree. I once heard Irvin say some guys can look at film all day and have no clue and learned nothing in the process. Witten got where he is by dedication and hard work and is respected around the league as hardnosed player.
