Why is Jeff Heath still starting?

[Playmaker247]

I hate to beat a dead horse but why the heck is heath still starting? I mean this dude is awful. The play last week when the ball literally hit him in the helmet tells you all you need to know about him. Will the coaching staff give Wilson an opportunity to take over the starting spot?

If you listen to a few fools on here, its because the players really like him and voted him in as captain. LOL

I’ve been asking this question since last year. The only reasonable response I’ve heard is “because he’s cheap and you can’t pay everyone.”

It should be an animated gif...

Because the Cowboys don't have a better option on the roster at the moment.

Next question.

Pretty good safety. Solid is his best.

Doink

A good joke the team should play on him is to give him a helmet with 2 hands on it. Now that would be funny. "Maybe you will catch the next one Heath" lol

If you cant beat him in practice then he still starts. Wilson did make some plays but hasnt been healthy, thats part of it. He also wasnt the only db to not catch the int.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

He was outstanding yesterday. What are you talking about?

 

[America's Cowboy]

Uhhh, because he's currently the best Strong Safety on the team?

Unfortunately, we dont have anybody else better than Heath on the roster.

He is starting by default right now.

if he continues to suck I would put Wilson at SS.

 

[AbeBeta]

Gee both the players and coaches respect his work.

But yeah, dumb @#$ fans know what is up.

Get over yourselves

 

[JoeKing]

Why do people say they hate to beat a dead horse but then commence to beating that dead horse.

The ball hitting a Safety in the back of the helmet is the most idiotic method of evaluating a Safety that I've heard.

 

[Idgit]

Ima go on a limb and suggest he’s better than their alternatives. Wilson will get his chance eventually. If it’s sooner than later, Heath gives you a lot on special teams.

Woods dropped his own pick-six on Sunday, btw. I missed the thread on that one, though.

The Cowboys could stand an update at Heath’s position, but this is not a valid reason. It’s not uncommon for DBs to get hit with passes because It’s pretty difficult to watch the QB the whole time and still stick with the receiver as he makes his cuts.

Thou shall not replace the GOAT.

Who do we have to replace him? I'm sure the coaches see more in practice than we do! Thats why....
