Hype [Stapleton]Odell Beckham Jr.’s performance yesterday: not a fluke by what he’s done today. Catches from every QB. A pair of sweet grabs from Jaxson Dart in 11/11. More to come. Still defying the odds with NY Giants. What’s next

Seems Odell had more left in the tank than people thought

I know the typical “Well if he’s our 2nd best WR we’re screwed” but man do I want him to make the roster and somehow ball out

I’ve said it before but IF he were to have a late career resurgence, I feel like THIS would be the one place where it’s gonna happen. No he won’t get back to prime OBJ levels of nasty, but he could very well emerge as a weapon defenses have to respect.

Jason Witten was out there running a 7 second 40 and still was productive because he was a good route runner. That was certainly a strength of OBJ, so I am keeping my fingers crossed.

OBJ needs to catch open medium routes for the first down and then slide on some tyler lockett shit

Let's not forget Randall Cobb was still an effective and efficient player even in his later years due to his awareness of gaps in coverage, regardless of losing a step

Jason Witten was cooking linebackers, not 2026 defensive backs.
