DMN Blog: Deion filets Roy (WR) Williams

[Hoofbite]

So were none of these flaws evident as a Lion or did he suddenly become a turd after the trade? Why would Jerry trade for a player with this many (alleged) shortcomings?

This is also a question that needs a little answering from Primetime.

 

[theebs]

Yeah that is a little bit of a conundrum. Witten has been splittin defenses ever since he came into the league. Without TO and without a QB half as capable as Tony.

Yep, I honestly dont understand why networks employee deion or why anyone would listen to anything he has to say. He is always wrong and he only defends small pockets of people, usually ones that can help keep his name in the spotlight.

2004 with no glenn, and a wr core of keyshawn, copper, ward and crayton he had 87 catches for 980 yars with 6 td's, with testaverde throwing to him behind a very poor line.

Boy how will witten ever cope without the worlds greatest human to save him on the football field.

The reality is williams or anyone else do not have to be buffalo bill, they just need to be key contributors and do their jobs every play, when they get the ball and when they don't. Those are the teams that win.

The amount of time spent bickering over a numbered ranking of wr is absurd. I wish someone would go tell deion to stick his number 1 in his number 2 and quit making people get all riled up over this.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Can't say I don't agree with him.

I can't say that either.

He may be 100% correct.

I'm concerned about this team's ability to move the ball through the air.

 

[CATCH17]

Woooo theebs is not the man to mess with today.

 

[thechosen1n2]

who cares what that tard says. Go do another reality show and keep that spotlight shining right on your bald dome dude.

and in 2004, we lost dan campbell and terry glenn. Jason witten had his best season, he was basically unstoppable that year. So there goes that theory.

That little group from the nfl network is going to be impossible to watch just like espn this year. They are all mad the white guys didnt fired or blamed so they are going to have an axe to grind all season.

maybe they are not mad the the white guys didnt get fired or blamed, but maybe they are upset that the black guy did (since you want to make this racial)...or it could not be racial at all. It could just be him defending his FRIEND no matter the COLOR....or there could be some truth. Who cares if your are unstoppale if you are 6 and 10 (04 record)
That is not a knock on Witten. I think he is good...Dang good...Top 3 good, but I can see his numbers increasing (being unstoppable) but they may not make this team better, and on the other hand I can see him being focused on by other teams and his stats dropping and playing roy and austin man up. Its not farfetched for people to think that TO was a benefit for witten.

Keep in mind witten has made a name for himself since 04. He is not sneakin up on anyone, they know who he is.

 

[Doomsday101]

He may have been right in the past but by all accounts Roy Williams IS putting in the work it takes.

Hes made a pro bowl before so you can't act like the guy is not capable.

But Roy Williams does have a lot to prove.

I agree it is all up to Williams to prove to his critics that he is a legit #1 WR.

 

[theebs]

Woooo theebs is not the man to mess with today.

sorry I loathe deion, I dont understand why anyone gives an ounce what he has to say. He is almost always wrong and no one ever goes back and asks him what happened, since he seems to know everything.

My favorite rant by you though was the guy who posted the picture of the guy cleaning out TO's locker on Hard Knocks and he was saying it was him.

That was FUNNY.

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

Deion, who was well known for not only being lazy in practice, but also rubbing off on some of the lesser players who did not have his natural talent (Sherman Williams, Kevin Williams) is questioning Roy Williams who reported three weeks early to offseason work-outs.

What an absolute agenda driven moron.

Here's to a season of him ripping Garrett, Romo, Witten and Roy Williams until they prove him wrong.

In which case he will just jump on their bandwagon with no mention of him being wrong.

That's Classic!

Witten doesnt need buffalo bill to be a great player. End that right now.

and secondly, it isnt a racial issue and never has been.

Except for some reason in this market it has turned into one. And a small group of guys at the nfl network have outright said it and I think alot of people then piggy back on it.

The radio stations here have to deal with this all day whenever cowboys football is talked about. The minute football comes up, someone calls up whining about buffalo bill and how the white media couldnt wait to get rid of him and how garrett and romo suck...catch the drift.

So again, IMO it is not and has never been racial in any form. Its about 1 person, the same 1 person who has had the same problem in two other spots. That is why it is so frustating for me to listen to everyone calling the radio stations all day with their kill whitey mantra.

 

[Aven8]

When are we going to be through we Deion??? He played with us for what two or three seasons??? I'm sick of this guy. Go back to Florida!

Roy will be fine....he's got one thing that TO did not. He can catch, and will go up for the ball!!!

 

[CoCo]

I truly am glad that Roy is right now at VR on his own time, working with the QB. But that does not mean our worries are over.

Practice does not make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. More reps of sloppy routes will not improve Sunday results.

I like that Roy is putting in extra time. I just hope its with a passion, attention to detail, and openness to critique and change that yields improvement and results.

But frankly my expectations are that we have a very physically gifted WR who to this point has achieved at a level a few notches below those gifts for reasons that are totally his responsibility. I think he's a mediocre #1 WR at best.

My hope is that Roy can be one in an arsenal of weapons (Witten, Bennet, Austin, Crayton & Felix) that allows us to beat teams in multiple ways and therefore reduces dependency on any one player. I don't think he'll become a player that defenses focus on like they often did TO. I think some teams will be able to largely neutralize Roy with single coverage.

I do think that Tony Romo is a QB that makes those around him better players. Tony makes plays that allows other players to make plays. I think Romo will be good for Roy.

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

So Neon is either 5countem5 or Yo Mick.

Cute.


You just don't like the fact that others are pointing out the obvious. We could be in real trouble.


Double Witten, lazy Rw11.

Fracken O-line that blocks when it wants to.

Favre, Jr behind center.

Pillsbury Doughboy on sidelines.

Puppetmaster up in the box or down on the field.




This could turn out like an Inaugural season of a team coming into the league for the first time.



Call it gloom and doom. Thats fine.


The Cowboys havent shown us otherwise.

I dont think witten needs TO to be good, but I think he was better with another good player next to him, thats always a plus on the field.

As far as the "kill whitey" talk. I think that is extreme, but at the same time I think peoples take on TO or as you call him "buffalo bill" is extreme. Dude was in fairly good graces his first year...last year...when he was chasing down blockers in the middle of this year. He was the first person to defend Romo in seattle, and backed Romo in New York, but from the washington game to when he was cut he became the most hated man in Dallas. Buffalo Bill played hard for us, I dont get the Hate, but no matter how you feel about him...one things for sure. He was used as a scapegoat for the 9 and 7 season, when injured qb, bad 2nd string qb, bad playcallin and offensive line, and injury to felix all had more to do with it than TO. So thats why people feel like the dark skinned outspoken man was unfairly persecuted.

 

[Bass-Assasin]

Didn't Deoin think Adam PacMan Jones was great? His opinion means nothing when he likes Pacman

 

[big dog cowboy]

...your big fellow (Roy Williams) has got to win outside and that's not going to happen.

For crying out loud. If he did it in Detroit, he can here.

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

Roy Williams has a lot to prove... I can't wait to see how it works out. My money is on him being a 1,200+ yard guy with 10 TDs.

Roy Williams was clocked @ 10.22 100 Meters in High School. How is he not fast?

Weren't we all faster ten years ago?
