Former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Drew Pearson is widely-regarded as one of the best players to ever play his position in the history of the NFL. So when he talks, current Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant should listen. Even though the things he's saying are things Bryant probably doesn't want to hear. Specifically, Pearson called Bryant out this week for not bringing his A game to the 'Boys matchup against the Jets on Sunday night.

"You saw what happened in the fourth quarter," Pearson told a Dallas radio station. "We had wide receivers that couldn't finish the game. Come on! Jeez!...The first quarter was spectacular. Great job, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. But now we need you in the fourth quarter and you can't even run? You catch three passes in the first quarter and then you get targeted five times after that and you don't make any catches? Let's not be so high on this guy who hasn't really done anything. He missed four games last season, he comes in this game, and he can't finish it out."

Hold up: Did this guy just "nah, nah, nah, nah, nah" you, Dez? Naaaaaaah, son! Let's see you respond on Sunday. [via The Dallas Morning News]
