Armstrong bad choice?

He's a Cowboy fan. Can't help his subconcious. He'll have 500+ yards and three touchdowns this season. Bank on it.

we have 2 awesome TEs and sunday night i only saw the offense take advantage of 1 of them. why? considering WR is a weakness, we should be exploiting our strength at TE.

Also, the series in question, we should've gone back to the run to try to eat some clock, but KS must've seen something he liked after that first toss cause he went right back to it.

well, im with jsarno on this to a degree. i mean, having galloway and armstrong higher in the depth chart than devin thomas? (yes i read all about thomas' inability topick up playbook since we drafted him)

im watching the game on tv so i dont know who was open and who wasnt (man i wish we had access to the coach film showing the whole field) but it seemed only moss or cooley was getting open.

not to piss off ace, but reciever is a concern imo. i mean, is thomas really that bad that 38 year old galloway with what 10 catches last year and a 26 year old rookie beat him out? i guess so, the coaches know but dang if it aint a head scratcher. at the very least its a kick in the nuts that we had 3 2nd round picks 3 years ago and am going to walk away with a servicable TE and maybe a returner.

imo armstrong needs to get open sunday for a nice big gain and galloway needs to catch some short-mid range 1st down catches for both to stay in the receiver rotation. otherwise, we gotta hope thomas replaces them and starts to click.

if armstrong, galloway and thomas all maintain status qou, it could be a long season passing attack wise.

Thomas can't do what all the above average and great ones can. Run good routes, which in turn keeps corners on edge. When he can do those things, that's when he can crack the lineup. Otherwise, he's just like all the other athletic big WRs who bust out of the league for one reason or another.

He plays well on kick and punt coverage so, he'll stick. Look for Thomas to get in on the offense this week though. I noticed how well Westbrook played on teams too.

I will give Armstrong til game 3 to see if he can proudce, but I am with Jay on this in that we might be just delusional about what this guy can bring to the table. The second fade into the endzone was just good coverage, but the first one should have been caught, plus the other catch he missed should have been grabbed also. By the end of game 3 any jitters should be gone and he should have at least 6-8 grabs I would imagine. Either way, I see no way in which we don't draft a top WR in the 2011 draft. We need more targets than Moss and Cooley. Sellers should not be thrown to at all.

Gotta love the patience of fans.

Yah, and his "status" as an UDFA who's 27 years old also has to be accounted for. No way people would be calling for his head like he is now if he were even a 4th rounder.

I'm confused, hasnt it been one game? Didnt he have a good pre-season?

How about we just wait and see...

I think it is more of a case where we overbilled the guy(ala Marko Mitchell), not thinking he is going to be a bust, but thinking he is going to be a potential stud. Even if he does pan out nicely, we still need to draft him some help. I think that is at the bottom of Jay's views. We just overhyped the guy like we did last preseason with Mitchell, Thomas, and Kelly, only to be crapped on when the smoke cleared. We thought the world of the guy in the preseason, even when the body of work wasn't all that spectacular, then showtime came, and he didn't show us anything that we allowed ourselves to be hyped up about.
