A few weeks ago, CeeDee Lamb got a massive four-year, $136 million with the Dallas Cowboys. However, the wide receiver hasnât fulfilled the expectations during the start of the 2024 season.
The Cowboys hold currently a 3-3 record and their upcoming schedule is really tough after the bye week with games against the 49ers, Falcons, Eagles, Texans and Commanders.
On offense, Dak Prescott has been the one to blame by fans and experts, but, a legend of the NFL thinks the narrative should be different. Itâs not about the quarterback in Dallas.
Who is the one to blame for Dallas Cowboysâ record?
According to Troy Aikman, CeeDee Lamb and the group of wide receivers are responsible for the lack of production on offense for the Dallas Cowboys. It all happened during an interview with 96.7 The Ticket.
âI think the routes are terrible. I think they run terrible routes and Iâve thought that beyond this year. I think CeeDee has got to improve in his route running. As a quarterback, if youâre not certain where guys are going to be consistently, itâs hard to play the position. Thatâs what I see. I see guys lazy coming off the line of scrimmage. Sometimes they run, usually if they do, itâs because theyâre anticipating theyâre going to get the football on that play, but if theyâre not, they donât. And it all ties together. Iâm not impressed with that part of it.â

Aikman is absolutely convinced that Dak Prescott is not the reason to explain the bad performances by the offense. âItâs hard to play the quarterback position if youâre not certain how guys are going to run routes or where theyâre going to be. And Iâm not speaking for Dak. Dak may say, âHey, I think their routes are amazing.â But as a former quarterback watching it, itâs gotta get a lot better.â
