Roy Williams is an idiot - Aggiefans.com
Anyone catch his comments to the press yesterday???
Quote: : Now Roy Williams is doing the same thing: taking note that more balls are headed in the direction of the supposed No.
2 receiver than to him, the supposed No.
1 receiver. "It's just not even close," said Williams to ESPNDallas.com.
"It's not even funny.
Not even close. .
. . I'm the No. 1 receiver.
But things are just going No.
2's way."
No. 2, otherwise known as Miles Austin (notes) , has 563 receiving yards this season and six touchdowns.
He's averaging 80.4 yards per game.
Williams, meanwhile, has 249 yards receiving this season, good for an average of 41.5 a game and two touchdowns.
Williams lays the blame on Romo.
"(Austin) gets the ball thrown correctly his way," Williams said.
"I'm stretching and falling and doing everything.
Everybody [else] who's been here's balls are there.
Our footballs [from Romo to Williams] are everywhere right now." http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/rumors/p...urn=nfl,200355

I wish a reporter would've asked him if he thinks the balls would be on targert if he ran the right routes and was in the right place when he was supposed to be.

TO was an idiot when he said things like this, but at least he had the stats/history to back it up.
Roy Williams hasn't been **** since college.
Ironic that the sip WR's that got away with so many illegal pushoffs in college don't amount to crap in the NFL.
Look at Sweed on the Steelers.
He has been inactive most of the year and only has 1 catch this year.

That kid turned the bubble screen into a hell of a college career.
Never could figure out why teams couldn't stop it.

In terms of Roy Williams, if he tried half as hard as other WR's he'd be a beast...but he doesn't.
I will say that Romo seems to me to be a QB that feeds the balls to guys in streaks based on trust or gut or whatever...be it Witten or the new wr or whoever...maybe that's just my perception but he seems to almost force the ball to whoever his reciever du jour is until the opposing team figures it out and then starts to punish him for it via INT's and such.

His comments he made in the off-season about never having to do as much conditioning in College testify to this.
Jerry Jones (like him or not) tries to make Dallas better with his moves.
He wants to win, and quite often (when it comes to players) will get most of his moves right.
But this is not one of them.
Roy didn't do much for Detroit towards the end & in Dallas he's done nothing.
Quote: :
Roy finally hitting the weights
Roy E.
Williams | Cowboys
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Roy Williams will finally be taking part in a serious weightlifting program this off-season, as reported in the Monday Morning Quarterback column by Peter King.
While most football players begin this fairly vital activity at some point during high school or college, it'll be a virgin voyage for Roy.
Whether this is an indictment of the man himself or his former teams -- the Detroit Lions and the University of Texas Longhorns -- it could be a harbinger of a breakout campaign in 2009.
So much for that breakout campaign...
I guess he didn't like that workout or thought "Ta Hell With This"....

I don't know if I agree with you on that one...the team hasn't won a play off game since what 1996?

And that has what to do with him performing well as a WR???
Miles Austin seems to be doing alright.

If you are refering to JJ wanting to win.
He does. Especially with the new stadium.
I can't find the link, but a friend of mine had sent me a link a while back showing everything & anything that Jerry Jones is involved with.
He strives to be #1 24/7.
Is he always #1? No, but he strives for it in everything he does.
Why it would be different with Dallas I don't know.

Striving to be number one and ending up as an average franchise at best over a 12 year period are two entirely two different things.
Given the salary cap, CBA, etc...having the biggest and best stadium doesn't=winning.
From that perspective the NFL is a level playing field.
I just don't think he's a very good prognosticator of talent.
I mean the best QB he's brought into Dallas since Aikman has been an undrafted free agent...the best 10 players of his ownership period were all brought in during the reign of Jimmy Johnson.
I think the new stadium equals big profits when/if he ever pays back his creditors on it.

I honestly, don't think Jerry Jones is as involved with player personnel decisions as people make it out to seem.
Does he write the checks?
Yes
Is he in the War Room?
Yes (like most owners/GMs)
But as far as input on who Dallas brings into the program, Jerry might make his opinion known on less than 5% of the players on the team in any given year.
For every move like a TO or Roy that has Jerry writen on it, there are about 10 to 15 moves (Draft & FAs) that he has little to do with.
No one heard anything about Jerry Jones when it came to Keith Brookings, Gerald Sensebaugh, Ken Hamlin, Stephen McGee, Matellus Bennett & so on...
None of those players were brought in because JJ wanted them.
THey were brought in because his coaching staff wanted them & in trying to win, JJ is paying these player as best he can to build a winner.
Does it always work out?
No.
But if anyone wants to sit back & say that every GM doesn't have a say in one or two player moves is kidding themselves.
From Seattle, to Tenn, to Dallas, to Pitt.
Every GM has some say in the biggest moves the team makes.
It's the 2nd, 3rd, & 4th tier players that they really don't put much say into.
Does anyone think Jerry Jones even knew who DeMarcus Ware was coming out of Troy???
Heee No... He does now though & is making the best effort possible to make sure he retires a Cowboy.

No, Roy is and always has been a lazy jackass that needs to go out there and play.
He needs to understand that he isn't in Austin anymore.
In the NFL you are #1 only as long as you deserve to be.
If he continues to run poor routes and not put in the work necessary he will find himself slipping to #3 or being #1 on a ****ty team like Oakland.

Not necessarily a bad thing.
If someone is hot, feed them the ball until they aren't anymore.
Same philosophy works in basketball.

I agree to an extent it just seems Romo does it to the extreme, but I think it might also seem more so because he also seems to me to be streaky as hell.
So when he's hot he's super hot and when he's not he's well pretty bad.
And in terms of player decisions, Jerry carries the title General Manager so by definition has final say and responsibility on all player/personel decisions.
It was the fight over said control that led to Jimmy Johnson leaving was it not?
In fact I can't think of many moves made since 1997 that's really worked out long term for the Cowboys.
