2,000 Yards for Dez?

I can't imagine worse news for Dallas Cowboys fans hoping to rebound from last year's bizarre season.

A wide receiver who wants the ball during crunch time is admirable.  But a wide receiver who demands the ball constantly to help back up his trash talking?

Dez Bryant said he can haul in 2,000 yards receiving. Now he has to back his bragging up or face the ridicule of his peers. 

But here's the deal.  Receivers are 100% reliant on quarterbacks for "touches."  Kind of like how centers have to rely on point guards to get them the ball in the NBA.

The team concept already seems out the window in Dallas, and training camp is still months away.  I don't know how you foster a team concept when a guy is busy working on his stats, and blatantly bellowing it to the media during the off-season.

I'm glad J.R. Ewing isn't alive to see this.
