He should compensate some for the lack of lead runner.Did Welker? Does Edelman?
He is a niche player. He just needs to do what he does well and it looks like he is doing it.

That should be a mod's responsibility.Cool, thanks for letting us know.
Randle showing up as the mentally weak guy I have told you all about.
Of course, I now admit I was wrong about Shrimp Beasley. That little shit is tearing it up.
I've been slacking lately. I'm only posting like 40 posts a day now instead of 50.That should be a mod's responsibility.
Both absolutely did just that.Did Welker? Does Edelman?
If you don't vary your game, good defenses will pin you down. Dallas needs better production.Give it up.
So, you're returning fire with a play that ended in a drop and a player that needed support from the rest of his team. So noted.Both absolutely did just that.
Recall the pattern Welker ran on his famous Superbowl drop. And Edelman totally broke out this past season which probably put the Pats offense over the top with a healthy Gronk.

That Welker play was from the slot and Edelman plays 95% from the slot and chew on these stats.Both absolutely did just that.

If Edelman can up his game, Beasley can.
Fine. Fine. Avalanche of pro-Beasley opinions aside (yeesh), the initial premise was a desire to attack the entire field, which is exactly what Welker was doing on that play, regardless of where he lined up.That Welker play was from the slot and Edelman plays 95% from the slot and chew on these stats.
? Don't care about how they started, just that Beasley gets to were Edelman got to in 2014In their 1st 3 years
If he was struggling to get open you'd have a point. I don't care how limited a WR is if he consistently gets open and catches balls. That's what Beasley can do.This offense works best when the defense doesn't know what's coming.
I think we saw the whole passing game taken down several notches in the playoffs and yeah I lay that partially at his feet. They swarmed Dez, so it's up to the other WR's to break the game open. Instead Witten was the one shaking loose and while I love the guy he's not exactly a game-breaker.If he was struggling to get open you'd have a point.

There is a condition. I think he has to be in the slot. Outside, he will get jammed into the bench.If he was struggling to get open you'd have a point. I don't care how limited a WR is if he consistently gets open and catches balls. That's what Beasley can do.
You are forcing me to defend Shrimp Beasley, but man you are way off thinking he doesn't get YAC. No, he's not Jerry Rice with the ball, but he does pretty good. He can slip around.I think we saw the whole passing game taken down several notches in the playoffs and yeah I lay that partially at his feet.

Catching the ball is one thing, but Beasley is going to have to learn to actually do something with it once he catches it. It's a major part of a WR's job.
Getting a first down is good, but you need to chew up yardage so we don't need so many more first downs.
Part of that is on Romo leading him properly, but it comes down to the route being run. If a guy just squares in with his back to the post every time, YAC is very, very hard.
Jesus Christ, your position here is really dumb. The guy does nothing but get open, catch balls, and get first downs, and you somehow want him to be a superstar. He has a niche and he fills that niche VERY well.I think we saw the whole passing game taken down several notches in the playoffs and yeah I lay that partially at his feet.

This sounds like an idea for a "hot take" article.Jesus Christ, your position here is really dumb. The guy does nothing but get open, catch balls, and get first downs, and you somehow want him to be a superstar. He has a niche and he fills that niche VERY well.
It would end up being Ravi arguing with the rest of the world about his position, but I'm game.This sounds like an idea for a "hot take" article.
So you want Beasley to be Romo's number 1 target?Fine. Fine. Avalanche of pro-Beasley opinions aside (yeesh), the initial premise was a desire to attack the entire field, which is exactly what Welker was doing on that play, regardless of where he lined up.
We don't need a bunch of one-trick ponies, no matter how good that trick is.
Even Alvin Harper, mental midget that he was, supplemented his leaping ability with an all-around game. That famous 70 yard catch against San Fran came on a play when he and Irvin switched positions ad-hoc.
Could either of our secondary receivers do that with Dez?

I know the stats. No Wr had more than 4 catches in either game. At ATT Stadium Romo hit a few passes in stride and we had a strong YAC day overall despite fewer catches (Williams leading the way), but that ended in GB. A strong running day by Murray, and we still couldn't pass.Beasley Playoffs

Explain how he was the problem again?
