The Dallas Cowboys have had a number of the finest offenses within the NFL over the past half decade. An enormous contributing issue has been All-Professional broad receiver CeeDee Lamb. In his first 4 seasons, he was named to the Pro Bowl thrice and in addition racked up a number of All-Professional nods. Merely put, the man is particular.
Lamb is having one other big-time yr as he enters Week 16 third in receiving yards (1,089) and receptions (94). Talking of receptions, with three video games left within the season, Lamb has a shot to set an NFL file. He presently has 489 receptions all through his first 5 years within the league. He wants 22 catches earlier than the tip of the season to interrupt the all-time file set by Michael Thomas (510).
That signifies that Lamb would want to common simply over seven receptions per sport the remainder of the best way to set the file. By way of 14 video games, Lamb is averaging just below seven catches a sport. So, he is mainly on the precise tempo he wants to perform the benchmark. When breaking his profession down, it might be fairly spectacular if Lamb did rewrite the historical past books on this class.
In Lamb’s rookie yr, quarterback Dak Prescott missed the final 11 video games with an ankle harm. Nevertheless, Lamb nonetheless hauled in 74 receptions on the yr and simply missed the 1,000-yard mark. In 2022, Prescott was out for 5 video games with a damaged thumb. Lamb caught 49 passes over that span, which included three video games with double-digit receptions (completed the yr with 107). As soon as once more, Prescott will miss vital time in 2024 with torn hamstring. Within the six video games he is missed thus far, Lamb has amassed 41 receptions with Cooper Rush on the helm, which is in regards to the tempo he must set the file in query.
Crucial factor for the Cowboys is to shut the season robust regardless of lacking the postseason. If Lamb can set a file within the course of, that will be candy as effectively.
