I think he got hyped a little prematurely.

That's how Shaun Hill's passes really come down.


Oh I know, but the dude needs to cacth em when they land in his arms. It was funny hearing him use that as an excuse and Sing basically telling him he doesnt give a f**k how the ball came down.
Morgan looked like he just gave up today. So much for being a "winner". Hopefully Crabtree has more of a thirst for excellence.

5th round..

He is producing the most in our receiver corp in only his 2nd season, thats not hype, thats a pleasant surprise..

he never has been a burner, so folks that expect that of him are going to be disapointed and its as simple as that..

Not a burner but should have had a TD today. Lazy is a better word.
i think he just got tired

He doesn't have to be a burner...but I've seen lineman run the same speed.

as much as dez bryant and michael crabtree make me get a boner, we need an offensive line to at least give the scrub under center a chance to give them the ball. oh, and fire jimmy raye because he absolutely sucks a fat nutsack -- with him playcalling niether of them would get targeted more than like.. ohhhhh, 3 times?

Wow.......if we went Dez Bryant, Michael Crabtree, and possibly Nate Davis......we are officially in rebuild mode. Which means another 2-3 years of sucking before anything gets better. Which means a lot of guys like Clements, Harris, Bly, Spikes, etc. are gone by the time that era comes.

It's a tough thing to swallow. Do we give up success NOW for possible success down the road ?

Morgan is becoming a "practice player" to me - has a "great camp" but the results aren't showing up on the field.

Morga should sit along with Walker and Bly
he gets yac and jump balls, and he is fast enough to beat db's and score so i'm not worried and he is a good player. Great as a #2 wr i think

I wouldn't go that far, we need weapons on offense and whose to say Crabtree and Bryant don't start contributing immediately like Jackson and Maclin. We will be losing 3 WR's this year, he if is available he does become a serious option.

The bottom line is he got caught. lazy or slow, he didn't deliver that time. Having said that I like Morgan.
No reason he shouldnt have scored on the play.

Morgan should have scored on that play. It looked like he was just jogging and he was just waiting to get tackled. He should have been running like he stole something and at least dive when your inside the five. That play showed that he lacked the desire to be great.
The way he was running looked as if he was almost walking to the endzone. I think he was tired but in top of that he isn't fast so it looks extremely slow.
