Why is Noah Brown masquerading as an NFL WR?

Why doesn't Dallas employ double moves in their route running? These guys are just jumping these Dak int's. Why not run these plays and double move on these corners jumping the ball. I'll answer it myself. Dallas runs the same plays weekend and week out. Guys are sitting on certain routes. Kellen Moore is a friggin joke! Wish I could use the other "F" word.

Have you actually watched Brown play this year?

90%+ he fights the ball.

I actually seriously think he needs glasses.
0% of any other Noah Brown plays has anything to do with anything I said.

He's the only possession receiver the Cowboys have. Cee Dee has come along great, but when you need someone to be a constant go-to, Brown has proven he is the guy.
Gallup is a waste of a roster spot. Thankfully, the acquisition of TY Hilton has mitigated the need for Gallup to be on the field.
With Lamb finally becoming a true number one, and with Brown being a constant, TY rounds out a decent receiving corp when you add in our tight ends.
Do you call him that because when he does catch a ball, he goes straight to the ground with it?

I will not talk down Brown because he stepped up to the call to start the season with Cooper gone, Gallup hurt and Tolbert not being able to help. And he made some key plays that helped get some wins along the way.

That doesn't make him top WR, but it means he is pretty nice as the 4th or 5th, which was all he was really intended to be. If anybody had suggested at the beginning of the season he would contribute 555 yards nobody would have believed it.

I don't understand why every crucial sequence he goes to Noah. Noah is a great ST player. Nice blocker. But his game severely drops when asked to become a consistent pass catcher
Because you game-plan to have Noah the primary target. Defensive coordinators aren't dumb.

This one's easy. Browns already been the preferred scapegoat along with Moore.

Hilton was the salve that the Dak Davidians claimed would heal the offense because now Dak would "finally" have another weapon other than Lamb.

So TY is getting a pass for now. Brown is still the red headed stepchild. Until he's gone

Hilton will be next in the barrel. He just needs to wait his turn but trust me, his time is coming

As long as #4 is under center his minions will keep finding scapegoats
Sounds like the Romo minions, who had a top 5 receiver of all time, and a pro bowl TE at his disposal. I don't see anything like that on this team.

but, but, but,....we freed up money to sign both our 3rd and 4th rounders in 2025 to multi year deals.
but, but, but,.......what good is that if they're going to be like Tolbert.....teach the line of scrimmage first.

TO was in his mid 30's when he played for Dallas, yet still had one of his best statistical seasons of his entire career in 2007, so it seemed like Romo and TO hooked up just fine.


Look, end of the day, Romo made Laurent Robinson look like a legit pro bowl receiver. He spent a lot of time making chicken salad out of Chicken **** and we both know it. Behind a significantly more porous O line, for most of his career.
He was 10 times the QB Dak ever dreamed of being.

PS--what did Miles Austin and Patrick Crayton ever do once they left Dallas? Don't answer, we both know.....

No titles, no NFC championships, 3 8-8 seasons, sounds almost like Prescott.

I won't even bring up the fact that he has pictures of Booger....and looks to now have pictures of Dak....or the fact that he should have been churned off this roster 3-4 years ago....or the fact that BAD THINGS HAPPEN when he is on the field. Someone about three (3) weeks ago here made the astute observation that he always seems to fall down after catching the ball...a few minutes ago they replayed yesterdays pick 6 on First Fake and I noticed that Brown falls backward on his butt FOR NO APPARENT REASON....so had the DB whiffed on the pick, the catch would have been meaningless. Never mind the sucking....does this guy have some kind of chemical imbalance....or is he simply trying to imitate Foster Brooks after watching some old Dean Martin special? The only way this WR corp has a chance Monday, is if this guy is deactivated so there is a ZERO chance of him getting on the field. I realize that he is only one of about a dozen other issues, but this issue can easily be nipped in the bud....Hilton and/or a second TE, needs to see 100% of his snaps.
He is a solid 4th or 5th receiver. It's not his fault Dumb and Dumber elevated him to #2/3 status this offseason.

T Y was a huge disappointment yesterday.
He had 2 passes hit him in the hands and dropped both.
You got Lamb and a bunch of scrubs at WR.
Facts. I said it before when we had rookie FA Houston getting starting caliber snaps and target a WR. We have lamb and a bunch of bums. Now couple that with a online who can't run or pass block now. We are in trouble. Teams get to Dak quick while only rushing 4 or 5 people. Don't count on Kellen Garrett to adjust. If what he thought of doesn't work he goes into a shell.

Our offense was a tire fire yesterday.
Hope they can fix quick
We in a whole lot of dodo

He is pretty much your ideal #4 WR, as a tough STer who is good for 10 catches a season.

But playing your #4 receiver as your #2 is like starting your #4 tackle at RT. It is less visible, because a WR getting beaten just doesn't show up on your TV, but it's the same kind of liability.
