DMN Blog: WR Roy Williams says that sometimes you have to 'dial up 9-11'

[CaptainMorgan]

especially considering how great Romo was his rookie season.

Oh wait. Nevermind.

Acutally considering the laundry list of scrubs before him, Id say he was pretty great.

 

[theebs]

Roy talks to much.

Just shut up already.

He is just a good player, not a great player, Why do people continue to go to him and ask about his stats.

Roy williams stats should not matter. Winning should be the only thing that matters. This guy seems to be infatuated with having a big stat day so he can say see I had a big stat day.

Enough already, every day he has a new story about why he doesnt have jerry rice numbers.

No one cares, there not important. Just frigging win. Roys stats dont mean squat.

The rest of the team is finally talking about the important things, learning to win ugly, just win.....Roy is the only offensive player worried about his personal numbers. Everyone else gets it, that personal numbers do not matter....the group as a whole needs to just do enough to win..

9-11.


I like it.

 

[Hook'em#11]

Its funny how Tony came in the league as a starter not knowing any reciever yet lit it up. But now according to RW its just a case where Tony has had problems "getting to know him" and his body language. Excuses man, it gets old.

I wouldn't say right away,but, I agree with this.

I think #11 is a bunch of talk, that is about it. The other guy talked and *****ed and moaned, but, atleast made plays.

9-11, stupid is as stupid does.

You know why Roy talks about his stats and other personal numbers? It's because his lack of numbers are the lead story on almost every sports syndicate. It's because he's probably asked in almost every media encounter how does he feel about not getting numbers. It's because fans everywhere dog him out because he's not putting up huge fantasy football numbers.

No one judges receivers on their blocking. They judge them on their stats.

An excerpt from another blog.

Yet, fans are on Williams.

Last Saturday when Williams was on the sidelines during the Oklahoma-Texas game, OU fans yelled at him.

"An OU fan said, 'You suck. You get paid $40 million. You suck.' I said, 'Actually I got $45 million.' '' said Williams, who attended Texas. "It goes back to my film. I put my film out across the league every week, and I'm happy with my film. If they weren't happy, they would sit me down or talk to me and say I'm doing something wrong."

Now should Roy probably stop talking about it? Probably. But maybe some people should stop reaming him about it.

 

[Hook'em#11]

Fans should stop reaming him about it. Agreed.

He can also tell the "media" to look at his film , since he is so proud of it.

Or just say "no comment".


And also, don't make up moronic sayings. Get on the field and get better w/ Romo.

Interesting suggestion.

When he implied that he was going to be silent for the season, then there were a TON of articles and threads posted about Roy being too sensitive and that him not talking to the media won't help his case.

The man cannot win.

If the man has been asked about time and time again. And has already answered those questions. Yes, the "no comment" is a good one.

I would rather NONE of the players talk and was all for him not talking to the media.

No, the man cannot win when he is on the sidelines when the Cowboys are at the 2 yard line in Denver and Romo has to throw to HURD.. This doesn't work with me. And never will, he needed to be out there.

Based on how the media works in Dallas, I don't think "no comment" would've worked.

Is that his fault or the OC and HC's fault?

 

[superpunk]

I think it was Champ Bailey's Pass Interferencing fault.

True, true. But, He should still say it.

OC's fault? Nope, HC's? Hmm nope.

I could just see anyone trying to hold back Irvin from playing with the game on the line like that. Wasn't gonna happen.

Did we have time to get him back on the field?

IIRC, he played another play or so after the injury, caught a pass, then went to the sideline and we used our last timeout? We might have also caught Denver with favorable personnel on the field - and if we had subbed Roy back in we would have had to allow them a chance to substitute.

I don't know if any of that is true. But there are more possible explanations than "Roy is a wimp".

I disagree with everything you just said.

Roy is very concerned with his statistics and his image.

If Roy stood up in front of the media yesterday or today and had a good solid 2 or 5 minute statment about not caring about his stats and that no matter what other people think of him and write about him winning and losing is all that matters.

If he could stand there and do that, and be sincere and say look I dont care about my stats, individual stats mean nothing. Winning is all that matters he would end all this talk. This is all carry over from the last guy here going to the podium after games which never made sense at all in any team structure and talking about his individual accomplishments that day.

If Roy were sincere about it he could end all this talk in one good shot. Hey look I dont care about that, we win and lose as a team and That other stuff isnt important, I am part of an offense, I am not the offense etc.

But there lies the problem, I have heard him enough to this point to know that he does not think this way and could not be sincere about it. So everyday he continues this tightrope act of passive/aggressive comments about his coaches and quarterbacks.

He wants his stats so he can point at himself, You dont go on the radio after you missed a game and say you consider yourself elite and want to be the elite of the elite and then in the next sentence say I had bad numbers because the qb doesnt throw me the ball.

Be a team player. Your a wr. You are part of a group,not the whole. There is only position on offense that only one guy plays at a time, QB and roy williams is not that. So he should stop all this talk about his stats and what his numbers would look like if....blah blah blah.

Just do your job and help the team win. There are no great wr on this roster right now. Just a couple of good ones. They need to be selfless and fearless and work their tales off and only view stats collectively. Like the Running backs do.

The media keeps going back to it, because he keeps talking about it.

I didn't state he was a wimp in my last post or posts. He just should of been out there. But, maybe he couldn't. And personnel? LOL. Champ was already on the field, there is your personnel. Nothing is favorable when your so called #1 is on the sideline.

 

[WoodysGirl]

Of course you disagreed, its because I disagreed. It's a vicious cycle.

All players are stats junkies because that's how they get paid. That's how they get the big contracts. That doesn't really bother me, but he probably should stop talking about it.

His numbers are what they are. So saying the right things or saying nothing at all is not gonna stop fans and media alike from attacking him. Simply because he hasn't produced according to expectations.

If Roy said everything you suggested he say, which sounds really good, BTW, he would STILL get dogged out for not producing...and that's the bottom line.

...it's never going to stop...the media and fans will always compare what Jones gave up to bring him to Dallas against his production...it won't end unless he suddenly becomes the reincarnation of Micheal Irvin and Romo suddenly becomes Aikman-like in efficiency and accuracy...

...it's hard to stop talking about something when that "something" is the only thing people want to discuss and brood over...

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

Sunday he has 8 receptions for 107 yards and a TD.

Not a guess. I'm from the future.

There is no reason why Tony cant hit him 6-8 times per game. None.

If our line continues with its poor pass protection I dont see him getting 6 - 8 catches a game. Hes not as quick out of the break as the other guys and Tony has had less time this year than the past three to scan the field.

"It's frustrating, but at the same time I'm satisfied because I know what I'm doing out on the football field. I know that I'm doing things I'm supposed to do. I know when you cut the film on on Monday, No. 11 is showing up to play."

Roy Williams needs to stop taking the bait from the media. When he tells the media that his current situation is "frustrating", he is just giving them exactly what they want, something negative to focus on in their columns.

However, I think there is a lot of pressure on Roy Williams, whether by the fans, the media and/or the Coaching Staff after the game Miles Austin had against the Chiefs and personally, I don't know if he is handling it well.

Saying now he had have a 251 yards game, saying the situation is frustrating and even though I didn't think it was a sleight at Miles Austin, basically saying Miles Austin was suppose to put up great numbers against the Chiefs.
