Romo: Cowboys core too strong to be divided

Quarterback Tony Romo fielded several questions about his inability to click with Roy Williams. After answering two of them, he was asked why he believes Williams' numbers are so low.

"I don't look at the numbers,'' Romo said. "I don't know what would be good numbers and what wouldn't be.

"You know, we've been through this before with people trying to intersect and divide us as a football team. This team is too strong from the core.

"I know the media is going to make certain things appear what they may not have actually been or things of that nature. This team is too committed to winning and too committed to improving to let anything like that or anything you guys may present to us divide this team.

"We're just going to keep improving and getting better and we'll be ready to go this weekend.''

Roy Williams, Tony Romo throwing after practice

Todd Archer/Reporter Bio | E-mail | News tips

In an attempt to jump start their production, Roy Williams and Tony Romo stayed late after Wednesday's practice to improve their on-field chemistry.

"We worked extra after practice yesterday and we're going to do the same thing today," Williams said. "That'll be our trend for the rest of the year until that light switches over."

That's a good thing but I know some people will say, Why haven't they been doing that all along? Big deal. It's important that they recognize it now and they're doing something about it. Much has been made about what Williams said Wednesday - too much in my opinion - and some have painted him as another Terrell Owens.

"I'm not saying it can't be fixed," Williams said. "That's what we're doing. I'm not a T.O. I'm not trying to be a T.O. I'm happy to win. I've said that a hundred times. I don't understand why people don't say, 'OK.' I'm a football player, and I'm trying to get this thing working."

Romo on Roy Williams: it will come

Since we've all been sucked into the why doesn't Roy Williams catch more passes vortex, here is what Tony Romo had to say on the subject Thursday.

"You've just got to keep working,'' Romo said. "You just have to keep getting better and keep throwing footballs. That's part of anybody's quarterback-receiver position.''

Romo has completed 61 percent of the passes he's thrown to Miles Austin, 52 percent to Patrick Crayton and 38 percent to Williams.

"Sure, there are stats like that you could have made up last year for somebody else on the team,'' Romo said. "Every year, it's always going to be something. He can go on a tear the next five or six weeks and it will be a new story then. He's working hard, he's doing a great job in practice. It will come.''

And how is Romo's relationship with Williams?

"It's good,'' he said. "We have a good relationship. He cares about the game and is out here practicing hard.

"He's getting better every time he steps out there, and that's all you can ask.''

They don't care they like getting sucked. RW and Tony are trying to work this out in the meantime the Cowboys are winning football games.

Huh? No one got "sucked." Archer confirmed that the controversial quote was true. It's his opinion alone that "too much" was made of it, as if that's even possible. No wonder Todd's so beloved around here; his blog posts sound like they were cribbed from a Valley Ranch press release.

You being a Yankee fan and all and us winning the WS. I would just like to say and I believe you can verify this.

The difference in this Yankees team and winning this year wasnt really about the players they brought in.

It was about the way this TEAM gelled and fought for each other. A tightly woven group.

If the Cowboys get there and I believe Romo is possibly headed in that direction then we can do ALOT... maybe even win it all.

I heard this clip on the Fan a few minutes ago and was LMAO.

I love it. There was some talk that Roy was a real TO follower... This should kill any idea of that still going on.

Well Done romo.

That is how you handle the situation.

Numbers dont matter. Who is the 1 or 2 doesnt matter.

Did you watch the interview?

The writer clearly pulled a couple of quotes and put a big shiny controversial bow on it (Accountability 101) and fed it to you guys and you chowed down.

Way to go, Tony. They keep on trying to create distractions, but don't let them do it.

Mac's story was not a mere transcript of the video. Believe it or not, conversations continue when the cameras stop rolling. Is it plausible that a long-time whiner like Roy would say something that? Yes. Is it plausible that Mac would jeopardize his job by cooking quotes? Not really.

I love this teams attitude this season. They really don't care about anything except winning from what I can see. This team could have very easily just gave after that Denver game but they have fought back and shown some resolve.

Roy comes off as a whiner because our media absolutely hammers him because of Jerry trading for him.

Is it possible that Mac's bias slipped into the story? Yes. Is it possible that his interpretation is slighted skewed from what Roy intended to deliver? Yes. Is it possible that you are biased that you will believe what you want? Yes. Is it possible that writers like to create controversy? Absolutely. We all have biases, you, me, Mack and everyone else. Can we put those aside to form a clear opinion? Some can and some can’t. I can. I’m no Roy homer. I think he is frustrated. I don’t think he’s a whiner. I think he is embarrassed by his lack of production. I think he wants to win. How many times has that fact been stated? Yet, most Roy bashers fail to bring that very important point. This is such a none story that bashers have championed. The media created this. Romo is killing it. Good for him.
