Confidence is a hallmark of NFL receivers, and Dallas Cowboys star CeeDee Lamb exemplifies this trait with bold self-assurance. Following the Cowboys’ commanding 49-17 victory over the New York Giants, Lamb asserted his belief that he is the premier wide receiver in the NFL.
“I’m the top receiver in this game, and there is no question about it. If there is, I’ll see you again next week,” declared Lamb, as reported by David Moore of the Dallas Morning News.
Lamb’s performance against the Giants underscored his proclamation, as he dazzled with 11 receptions for 151 yards and a touchdown. Notably, he made history by becoming the first player in NFL history to achieve at least 10 catches and 150 receiving yards in three consecutive games. Adding to his versatility, Lamb also scored on the ground in the matchup.

Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott unequivocally supports Lamb’s claim to the top spot among NFL receivers. “No. 1,” affirmed Prescott when asked about Lamb’s ranking, according to Jon Machota of The Athletic. He praised Lamb’s talent, emphasizing the connection they share and noting Lamb’s youth and ongoing potential.
With the Week 10 triumph, the Cowboys secured a two-game season series sweep against the Giants, outscoring them 89-17 in 2023. Lamb, consistently exceeding 100 receiving yards in five different games, has accumulated 68 catches, 975 yards, and four touchdown receptions this season.
Postgame, Lamb expressed confidence in the enduring success of his connection with Prescott, stating, “We’re going to continue to do this for as long as we can,” as reported by Fox Sports.
Looking ahead, the 6-3 Cowboys are set to face the 1-8 Carolina Panthers in Week 11. While CeeDee Lamb is undeniably showcasing elite receiver skills, the challenge lies in sustaining this level of performance over seasons to solidify his place among the league’s most esteemed talents.
