HitStickAllDay Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I’m sure you’re just bein a troll at this point. Settling for mediocrity? No. Do I want them to win every game. Yes. Do I need to be realistic with how life works and how framing can impact enjoyment, I think so. You keep thinking that somehow your negativity confers some sort of superiority or proper way of thinking about things. I’m sure you’ll be happy.

joeybrowner47 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Not sure if this has already been discussed.. don’t feel like going through 60 pages of banter but has anyone mentioned signing Dez Bryant as our number three? I realize it’s risky with him being a diva and a bad locker room guy but he would be a huge upgrade from Treadwell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coley whiffed bad on a pass. I mean what do you do? Dez? Gordon? Trade? I feel like Kendall Wright is what will happen. We are very limited with cap, so if we do make a move it's gotta be cheap.

skywindO2 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 This should probably go without saying but going to a bar to watch a three and half hour football game with a fan of the opposing team doesn't make for a very good first date. Lesson learned I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not forget Dez did the exact thing Treadwell did last year against the Seahawks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HitStickAllDay Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Yeah, unfortunately I am not sure Dez is anything special at this point. Plus I don’t think we need someone who needs to be the focal point of an air attack. We’ve got two guys who seem happy when we win even if they don’t always get the ball. I like the idea of Josh Gordon if his head is on straight. Presumably it’s not, but he could just not want to play for the Browns, which is understandable.

skywindO2 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Treadwell simultaneously had his best and worst game. I'm not sure what to make of it but the frustration is definitely warranted. Curious to see how/if this tie impacts playoffs and seeding since I fully expect both teams to be in the hunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think Dez is past his usefulness especially when not playing at all since last season. As for Gordon......he's a head case. Do we risk that kind of disruption and possible disappointment if he gets popped for whatever or walks away from the team? Funny how one week changes your outlook on the receivers. I thought that was by FAR a strong point heading into the season but now it has me thinking..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBrocks Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Kendall Wright is the likely call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well 1 and 2 are about as good as they come. 3-5 are leaving things to be desired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diggs isn't necessarily Mr. Durable on the field. You lose one of the two and things look A LOT different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nzd07 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 So this is what it's like to have a top 10 quarterback. It's been a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t mind seeing Zylstra get some run or heck even Beebe. I was on the lets wait and see on Treadwell camp. However, after last week seeing him confused on what route to run and today’s sloppiness I am done with him. Not sure what other options there are. Would be interesting to meet with Gordon just to see what’s going on. One last thing on Gordon. Let’s say he costs a 6th or 7th. You really have almost nothing invested. Obviously high risk/reward but if you’re Zimmer you just trust yourself to cut him on a zero tolerance policy. Vikings wouldn’t have nearly as much invested in him so there shouldn’t be a sunk cost issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
