If Someone Injures Every Single Cowboys QB, Dez Could Be Pretty Fun

Just sayin, you guys.

From Matt Bowen’s Cowboys-Eagles preview at National Football Post:

During my career (when we matched up with Vick and the Falcons), we would use a DB, WR or kick returner to play some scout team quarterback to get a look at an athlete under center.

The Cowboys solution this week? Let WR Dez Bryant run the scout team offense.

And how’d he do?

Here’s what Cowboys’ LB Sean Lee said about Bryant taking scout team snaps (via NFL.com): “He did a great job. He has that unbelievable athleticism very similar to Michael Vick. The surprising thing about Dez though, he also has a great arm; he can throw the ball 60 yards. So he was running around giving us a great look and that’s something we’re going to use on Sunday.”

Nobody’s advocating that someone injure Tony Romo, Jon Kitna, and Stephen McGee, because that would be horrible and, if you’re not a football player, probably against the law.

But if someone were to injure every quarterback on Dallas’ roster and force the Cowboys to become a thousand times more exciting with Dez Bryant moonlighting at quarterback for a few games, then perhaps that someone would also take out Jason Garrett, too, and Rob Ryan could finally ascend to his rightful position as the awesomest coach in the NFL. But again, nobody’s advocating any of this.

Nope.

Not one bit.
