Chief Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 per nfl.com main page: By a show of hands, who thinks Dez Bryant and Miles Austin are better wide receivers than Calvin Johnson? Well, regardless of what you think, Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Rob Ryan believes it to be true -- which is why he's not stressing as he prepares to stop the Lions' go-to guy Sunday. Unlock HQ Video HQ video delivered by Akamai "We work against better receivers with Miles Austin and Dez Bryant," Ryan said Friday, according to The Dallas Morning News (via ProFootballTalk.com). link There's more for the whole story but I have to wonder what he's drinking. I really don't believe too much in the locker room incentive thing too much. Austin is a very good reciever in his own right, but he's not megatron. Two difff reciever builds/strengths, but Calvin I'd take any day over Miles with no disrespect for Austin.. To add in Dez is coompletely idiotic, the guy has done what? Let's see, I'll draft Dez ahead of megatron, then be laughed out of my league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efi4eye Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Classic trash talking... obviously he's trying to stir the pot. Honestly, Austin is a great receiver but not as good as Megatron, who's probably a top 3 guy at this point. I'm sure Rob Ryan knows that, but he does have a good point that their secondary is used to playing against two excellent receivers in practice.. that's all I'm taking from it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SecondString Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Not a smart thing to put out there for the press to pick up. Like Calvin needs any more motivation, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby's Hubby Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Dez won't ever be healthy enough to challenge. Dez is better than Miles, IMO, when both are 100% healthy, which only happens in dream world, appearantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piratesownninjas Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Dez is better than Miles, IMO, when both are 100% healthy, which only happens in dream world, appearantly. When has Bryant put up 200 yards or 3 TD's in a game? Bryant may be better eventually, but not right now. And I don't think it's really that close.
