Roy Williams: 'Wide receivers ... were terrible today'

It would be kind to say the passing game didn't click during today's OTA workout, when Roy Williams and Patrick Crayton were the only receivers available who have played a down for the Cowboys.

"It was sloppy," Williams said. "I can't talk about everybody else. But I know the wide receivers, we were terrible today. We've got to get the young guys better prepared -- tell them to put their PlayStations down and get in their playbook. You've got to come out here and be prepared to practice."

Good point, but it wasn't only the young guys.

Williams and Tony Romo had trouble getting on the same page, too. The most glaring instance was a play on which Williams ran a post, Romo threw a corner and S Pat Watkins made an uncontested pick.

It won't be a big deal if Kevin Ogletree, Manuel Johnson and Julian Hawkins aren't prepared. They just won't make the team if that's the case.

If Williams and Romo continue to have issues after a full off-season of trying to build a rapport, the Cowboys will have some serious problems.

This is not good news but that is why practice is conducted. We have a long time to clean up some things provided that the talent is there.

there is an irony in your post that I don't think you intended.

Was your name Rampage in college by chance?

Indeedy. If it were August that would be one thing. NO need to be alarmed......at this point anyways.

Not worried yet, though I have serious doubts about our WR corps. Now if we get to TC and things are still the same I'll start to panic a bit.

cause we already had one Roy Williams do it and he failed. I'm not exactly seeing or hearing anything different about this Roy Williams. in all honesty i'm scared to death that this trade will bust and set us back so far that our Window for a Superbowl will be closed by the time we can get some wrs if it does bust.

The year that the Cowboys went 14 - 2...T.O. wore a Spider Man costume in practice... (or was it 13 games...i forget)?

It's a piece of freaking cloth...!

THE SKY IS FALLING...THE SKY IS FALLING!!!!!
Everyone calm down for chrissakes.
If Roy Williams is saying this now I take as a good sign....Irvin probably said something similar when he was playing.
I like the reference to putting down thier playstations and getting in thier playbook. If Roy hadn't said anything he would have got ripped by everyone...the dude is trying to get to a level of excellence for the offense and I am glad he was not happy. We need more dissatisfied players who want to improve.
