(And anybody else that gets in his way to)

He does look a little less fat.

His weight has always been mostly in his lower body anyway..

Some people gain wieght first in the rear and legs and he is definitely one of those guys..

I'm just hoping the weight loss, and the packages that are taking him off the field on Dime Packages, are motivating him to bring back the big time hitter that he once was. I miss those huge hits he used to lay people out with.

Arggh. Are was supposed to make fun of him for being too fat? Or now for being too skinny? I get so confused on these Roy Williams topics. Someone please PM me and let me know so I don't have to ask.

I think the posters that took the horse-collar angle got it right. The guys preparing to backtrack in advance, just in case, also make an impressive showing in these threads. There's nothing safer than saying 'I used to love him, but now I don't, but maybe someday I will again.' That way everything's covered.

From these pics I ascertain that his hips are quicker.

Like a doormouse.

Ditto...And it does annoy me that it looked like some kind of reverse horse collar there in the pic...Still not wrapping up on tackles?...I mean I know it's Barber but isn't tackling like one of the keys for being a SS?...And isn't that one of the big criticisms on Roy?...In addition to the pass coverage one :eek:

Have they even been tackling and taking people to the ground in practices yet?

So much can be read into even a picture.

From looking at that picture--he misread the route and then took a bad angle and then got there late but was too light to tackle him the regular way, so he had to try a front horse collar. If only the salary cap hit weren't too high we'd just cut him now, because Jesus told me he sucks.

I've been saying it and WG thought I was nuts.. There is a reason he wore those sleeves...

You wear the tight compression sleeves to keep your upper body tight. Especially your shoulders when you play. Keeps you snug and body feels more 'controlled' when you are hitting.

I could see why Roy or anyone would wear the tight sleeves then.

But...........

When you wear the long sleeves (and your are not trying to loose weight by sweating off extra pouns) that are'nt compressed there is no benefit to it.

I hypothesized two years ago as I do know that Roy has a complex or is a little self conscious about his arms. Most of Roy's weight is in his butt and legs and his arms dont look very defined. In an attempt to keep his image of being a tough SS , he sported the loose sleeves so you couldnt see his arms. And all of this started when? When he blew up.

Well, I did a stupid and insensitive thing once (well that day). Came to Dallas for a game and went to one of the known eaterys afterwards. RW was there. After he had eaten I went up to him and gave him a friendly pat on the shoulders and said good game. It was rude but he didn't seem to mind or was nice enough not to show it.

He doesn't have a soft upper body. As good as mine ever was when I was lifting. But that was awhile ago. But he's never really been fat just large for a professional FB player at his position. Getting his weight down will make a difference in how fast he runs and reacts but it won't turn on the lights. He'll have to work at that assuming it really is a problem.
