Has anyone charted TWill's body catches to hand catches?
Seems he has had some pretty dang good hands catches that bailed us out of many 3rd and longs, and to help us wins games.

But fans must hate. I even posted once he should be cut after the 1st NYG game when he didn't get out of bounds. But I am not going to continually hate the player for it.
Actually Romo cost us more games than TWill.

LOL…the thing some fans can't see is NO ONE is saying Twill can't ever catch with his hands.

Heck, the catch he made against the Seahawks was a great "hands" catch. What many are saying is that he's very inconsistent using his hands, which for a receiver is not a good thing.

The man himself knows it's an issue, which is why he's always working with the jugs machine to improve his hands. The drop, and it's terrible timing, against the Packers should be enough evidence to show why it's such an issue.

It wasn't Jackie Smith bad, but it was a dagger in that game.

I don't "hate" Williams, but I see him for what he is. The 97th ranked receiver in the league for 2016, and this team's 4th or 5th option in the passing game. It would make no sense whatsoever to pay that guy $6 - $8 million a year. And I would "hate" to see the Cowboys make that mistake.
This! Stop white knighting TRex!

I agree with that. All the nickname calling and whatnot is weak though. He brought it every game and was almost always available. Not to mention he showed up huge vs Detroit and Green Bay in 2014.
T-Rex bruh. It fits. :thumbup:

Dude just naturally prefers to catch the ball against his body. Hey. That's cool. I just happen to prefer to have a #2 that is equally talented and more comfortable catching the ball against and away from his body.

Terrance Williams catch rate in 2016 was over 70%, which is actually fantastic. But facts are like kryptonite for some "fans."

Dude is a JAG, don't anybody lose sleep over him walking.

Maybe he will learn some basic clock management at this new team, he was totally clueless here.

I'd rather keep working on Butler and bring in someone like a Kenny Britt vs paying TRill 6-8 mil per. Screw that.

Dez, Brice, Cole, & Britt. That would be a formidable crew to start with.

Can't say Britt is any improvement, but as usual it depends on the money.

I'm not in love with TWill, but we need someone to replace him.....and the Butler can't do it.

Williams gets a little too much hate from fans. Aim that stuff towards guys like Crawford, Lawrence, etc
One guy was playing in a position he was the best of the rest, and the other was injured. TWill was never injured
