5 Players With Crazy Touchdown Potential in 2014
Dez Bryant, WR, Dallas Cowboys
Over the last two seasons, Dez Bryant has 14 touchdowns on 35 red zone targets. That 40% touchdown rate puts him second in the NFL among wide receivers with 25 or more.
With Scott Linehan's arrival in Dallas, Dez will have a ton of opportunities to show off this efficiency. During Linehan's time with the Lions, they were the most pass-heavy red zone team in the league, throwing the ball on 63% of their red zone snaps compared to the league average of only 52%. And the Cowboys' 57% over the same time period.
On top of this red zone efficiency, Bryant is nearly unstoppable on the goal line. On plays run from the 5-yard line and in, Dez has 10 touchdowns on 14 targets over the last two seasons.
