Roy Williams not happy with Cowboys role?

Cowboys sources say WR Roy E. Williams is starting to show some frustration over the fact that he hasn't been used more in his three games with the club (three catches for 38 yards and one TD), which already has to raise doubts about a Williams-Terrell Owens pairing working over the long term. With so many mouths and egos to feed, it might be difficult for QB Tony Romo and coordinator Jason Garrett to make everyone happy. -- Pro Football Weekly

Even if he is, so what?

He's played, what, 3 weeks with us, with Brad "The Absolute Worst Employed-NFL-Quarterback" Johnson starting every game? I'm sure he didn't exactly expect to be getting 10 receptions for 150 yards every week while that was the case.

He'll see what our offense is all about here shortly... His complaining now (if it's even taking place) is immaterial.

I have gotten to the point that I don't buy into the Cowboys sources BS. If someone has something to say, then say it don't hide like some coward. I'm starting to think this is just a lazy reporters way of coming up with a story.

Former Lion remains frustrated

Roy Williams is happy to be back home in Texas.

But nearly a month after he gained his freedom from Detroit, Williams isn't happy about his role with his new team, the Dallas Cowboys. The former Pro Bowl receiver, traded Oct. 14 for a package of draft picks, has caught just three passes in three games, and has been used mostly as a third-down possession receiver.

"It's frustrating for me, because I'm on the sidelines," Williams told reporters this week. "You can't do nothing on the sidelines."

Asked if he was possibly hurt, Williams replied, "Hurt? Yeah, my feelings."

He's not the only one grumbling, of course. As the Cowboys have struggled without starter Tony Romo (broken finger) the last few weeks, Terrell Owens has expressed his continuing frustration with the offense. The team went 1-2 in Romo's absence. And even in the lone bright spot, a 13-9 victory over Tampa Bay, it was ugly -- Dallas set a franchise record for fewest yards (172) in a victory.

"From here on out, all I can do is just run my routes and put what I do on film," said Owens, who has 136 receiving yards and one touchdown the last four games. "If I'm open and I don't get the ball, then I don't get the ball. There's nothing really I can do. I can't throw and catch the ball myself."

Williams, who signed a $45 million contract extension as Owens' heir apparent as the Cowboys' No. 1 receiver, sounds similarly resigned.

"I'm just doing my role -- that's my role (as the) third-down guy, red-zone guy," said Williams, adding that he hopes Romo's return will change things. "I'm on the sideline waiting. I feel like I'm in high school."

"Hurt? Yeah, my feelings"

:laugh2:

One of the funniest lines ever?

Anyway, who can blame a wide receiver for being a little upset with not getting playing time. Especially a wide receiver of his caliber.

I don't blame Roy one bit, but I also don't expect the situation to continue; he'll be getting plenty more playing time soon. And he'll be able to do a lot more with the playing time he does get since he'll have an actual quarterback. Also, his offense will be on the field for more than 3 downs at a time, which should help out his badly aching feelings.

Way to put things into perspective... :rolleyes:

How about maybe waiting a little while to judge if he's worth 9 million a year, rather than judging him on the three weeks our starting quarterback has literally been a man who is the worst employed NFL quarterback.

Andre Gurode not happy with Cowboys role ?

Cowboys sources say Center Andre Gurode isn't happy with his Center role. He wants to catch passes and be involved in defense plays also. Wade Phillips told Garett to find ways to involve big time thread Gurode in the passing game. Sources also say that Romo is very unhappy with this move because he will miss Gurodes luscious butt.

this story is getting some legs.
The Detroit media was all abuzz on the talk shows today about this story. Absolutely giddy
I guess anything to take the focus of the absolute worst franchise in all of sports history.

This. When Romo went down we handed the keys to this ferrari to an 87 year old Vietnamese woman. Frustration is inevitable.

Fortunately we can start to put that behind us.

Yeah, with half of it's cylinders not firing.............:banghead:

Speaking of offenseive frustration.......Being here in Charlotte funny watching the Panthers-Raiders game yesterday I thought we had traded Brad Johnson to Carolina the way Delhomme played. I hope Williams and TO will have success this week. We have to win this football game.

I watched that game yesterday. That had more to do with oaklands defense which was flying all around.

Namdi asomugha is absolutely fantastic. He just took smith out of the game all by himself.

Oh dear god.

Maybe he's frustrated because of the lack of even average qb play?

Wait till Romo returns, until then this is a non story.

Everyone seems to think all our problems will be solved once Romo returns.
I hope that I'm wrong or maybe we've worked out our problems with this bye week.
I have my finger crossed, but.....

Something else was also obvious...the Raiders were better without Deangelo Hall in their secondary.

My only hope is that our inept coaching staff won't screw this up:mad: and not use him and T.O. at the same time to stretch the field and start some fireworks.

Screw the third down BS, line em up and let em go!!!!!!!!!!!!:starspin:starspin:starspin

right. Roy understands that things are going to be very different with Romo under center.

At some point Roy #11 needs to snare more than 3 catches a month to merit the $9M salary that we traded half 2009 draft to get.
