If we win the Pro Bowl, ok. If we lose, ok.

"That production side will continue to grow each year with the more familiarity with the offense for me and him," Romo said. "There's lot of things that go into it. His routes could be a little different than somebody else's and sometimes you need more time to throw certain routes to him and sometimes there's less time. Whatever it is.


Been saying this since 2007 about the routes we run. Some of the routes just take way to long to develop and Romo doesn't have the protection to wait around. 2008 wasn't as bad but this year we obviously went back to this. There were games where TO disappeared and now there are many games where RW disappeared. We need to change this against teams with superior pass rush and coverage skills...

So is Roy now the cool guy to root for again? Someone wake me up when he gets traded.
I will record the 2010 season so that you will not miss a thing after you wake up.

I root for him to get it together and produce because it is better for the team if he does than if he doesn't.

Not me. I tried rooting for him and it got me nothing but disappointment. I am rooting for the other hard working WRs to over take his spot and him leaving the team. I want nothing more from this thief and liar.

Did not know he stole anything or lied about anything. I want him to do well because he is a member of this team.

You should be rooting for him because he is a Dallas Cowboy and is going to get snaps. We could be something else if he can live up to his potential and can turn it around.

No, i won’t root for him. He lost me as a fan and only way he can earn my fandom is to earn it back. Just like Owens lost me after the NFL Network interview so has RW after another dud season. He reeks like Owens did. He blamed Romo/Garrett all season...i am sick of it. He and Romo DO NOT HAVE TO CLICK...Roy Williams has to click, Romo is clicking just fine.

I also don’t think he is anything special. After watching him for a year and a half i believe he is terribly slow, has poor hands, runs poor routes and doesn’t understand coverages. None of these i believe he will improve on this season. And if his 7 TDs are proof of his production what does that say about Wittens lack of TDs? Defenses has zero respect for RW and so do i. I’m done talking about this guy for the offseason. I’ve said all i am going to say.

Draft a WR.

None do. I don't think most are worth the million they get but that is the NFL for you.

I don't fault RW for signing a contract anyone is their right mind would do the same but money does not make you play better, I wish it were the case but the game is still the game and money does not change it.

RW has continued to put in the work and has not been a distraction and if he does not get it going I would think next year could be his last.

As for me pulling for him why wouldn't I or any fan want to see a guy produce? Dallas did make a large investment and it serves us better for it to work out than not to work out.

I would have thought it would be because it would help the team have more success. However you want to look at it I think it is better for the Cowboys if he can get it together if not then as I said I would think he will be gone.

He stole plenty from us. On a cost per catch basis, he's got to be the worst starting receiver in the NFL.

He signed a contract money has nothing to do with the game itself, if things do not work out then that falls to the man who signed him. Hell this league is loaded with over priced players I would not call them thieves just bad moves by the organization.

"Honestly you're not going to be on the field if I don't feel comfortable in that regard as a guy playing a skill position," Romo said.

Dude is in total control of things in Dallas.

Its his offense.

Now sit back and watch magic unfold next year.

He's obviously being sarcastic...

No kidding. If he was a real QB, his hat would be worn properly, and he'd be brushing up on the Pro Bowl playbook. We need this win.

You've got to give Romo credit. He is towing the company line on the RW situation. Jerry isn't ready to give up on Roy so Romo continues to deceive the media about the no-talent hack of a starting WR he has to put up with.

Patch the hole in the OL, get him a proper #2 WR and watch him put up a 2007 Brady type season.
