My only defense of him is that he was injured and just never able to develop the chemistry with Romo that he needed. He is going to have something to prove next year, and I'm not entirely convinced he will do it. But we will see.
The guy is just really, really talented. I'm not sure he's ever consistently shown it, even in college, but when you see the flashes you realize how good he can be.

That's what I'm holding out hope for. I've gotta wonder if maybe that plantar fascitis and hardly practicing didn't severely hinder him this year. I guess we'll see. But don't be surprised if he comes out firing on all cylinders next year. He's got as much talent as any WR in the league short of the Moss/Fitzgerald tier.
