That's tough to say because RW and Romo were new to one another last year. This offseason thay are working overtime together. And from what I read, it's not just them two; all WRs are wrking with the QB to get their timing down. It defenitely will be interesting to see who Romo trusts most coming out of thoe workouts, but for now, i think it's too early to tell.

I think that was sensationalized a little bit by the local media. Word was that Roy wasn't even able to cut, or run full speed or something like that.

The real work gets done in TC, which Owens managed to miss almost every year in some capacity. And it was evident on the field. Look at Romo and Witten, Tony can put the ball exactly where Witten is going to be. You can only develop that chemistry through repetitions, see Michael and Troy. If Roy and Miles can have a solid camp with Tony we will have a much more in synch passing game. They just looked lost a lot last year, especially in Philly.

Thanks AC for clarifying. I don't live in Texas so I can only go by what the local media puts out. Looks like they got a case of the Ed-Werders (isn't that where the swine flu came from? LOL).

At any rate, I agree! This offseason will be HUGE for the passing game. Since that has yet to hit full-swing, there's no real good basis for determining how good or bad the passing game will ultimately be.

And we also don't know what philisophical changes, if any, Garrett will wrinckle into the offense. Will he still rely on the pass to set up the run, or has he finally figured out what a running back is, now that Dllas has 3 good ones staring him in the face???
