Why do people get mad when the next man steps up? This is what football is all about. Make the most of your chance. I don't understand the logic sometimes.

H & H is miles better than Bumton and Glassheen. Without doubt, you can see a huge difference.

In addition to this, Gabriel was obviously holding this team back.
If Gabriel and Burton and Shaheen are riding the pine all year, this team could have a win or two more right now.

It's gonna be a TE with a "M".. for the HHM club, @HeHateMe . CCS would be complete.
Seriously thought, idga-flying-F which TE it is, as long as Pace hits gold on our 2nd round TE selection with our first pick.

It’s amazing how this offense opens up when the tight ends get involved and when Mitch uses his legs.

I think we should temper our expectations guys. Not with Horsted and Holtz, but with Pace actually keeping them rostered. He'll probably trade a 2nd for Hunter Henry or another dumb TE with 2 first names.

Both Horsted and Holtz played very well. Holtz made a couple of big plays early which forced the Cowboys to spend capitol defending the TE position. Which, of course, meant less coverage on Robinson, Miller, etc. I thought Horsted's catch in the fourth was his best of the night. He caught the ball (a rarity for the TE position), turned up field to ensure the first down and then, most importantly, stayed in bounds. Horsted has to clean up the false starts but I believe he is a keeper.

1st year at the position. Maybe he just had to learn more about blocking and stay in the weight room a little longer to become this effective. He came out of college as a big WR that runs a 4.75. He went undrafted for a reason but is a perfect fit here for the receiving TE position. I'm sure he had a lot of teams wanting to sign him after the draft. I think Pace deserves more credit than disdain over this. Hey, Pace signed our next starter... what an idiot!
2 crappy teams waived Holtz and he wasn't even on a practice squad for most of 2017. Pace put in the claim on him after the season started and Washington waived him. What an idiot for not starting a guy who didn't know the schemes, routes or reads in Sept. He's a serviceable player.
The problem is this staff willingness to play injured players when their backups could offer more. It's an NFL mentality that I strongly disagree with. Milking an injury with poor play for sometimes entire seasons instead of sitting and getting better.

TE usually takes 2-3 years to master at the NFL level. Even top rookies often struggle early on. So to get this much out of 2 new guys in their first year...thats impressive.
And to think they should have, or even could have, had success earlier...foolish.
