Roy is still the best WR on the team

Well, you are completely disregarding production.

I think the problem is he's completely basing it on career production, just not this year's production.

At what point do you stop living in the past?

You gotta go all the way back to 2007 to find a year where he had good numbers and 800 yards and 5 TDs isn't exactly world beater material.

Julius Jones had a hell of a rookie year, I don't see many people holding high expectations for him.

I think when you have to reach back more than a couple seasons, you're probably reaching a little too far.

I'm not certain what year you stop looking in the past. But if you have a 27 year old receiver, I'm pretty sure you don't draw the line before looking at what he did when we was 25, or even 24.

Please keep in mind, I'm not arguing that he's better than Austin. I actually said Austin was our best receiver back in training camp and people laughed.

RW is not as quick in and out of his breaks. He does however have the speed to run the deep routs and did so in Det. He is very good on post routs as well. He is not Keyshawn slow he has good speed right now the only problem is him and Romo putting it all together. As for the last comment get out here guys coasting or taking it easy do not go out and put in the extra time.

He's fast, but has no quickness or acceleration.

And I said he did not have the same quickness in and out of the breaks. To say he is slow is a flat out lie or it is talk from those who don't know jack about RW to being with they only parrot what they hear. RW has had some big play and big games over the years including over 200 vs Philly. I do think RW and Romo will get this worked out and he will show what many of us already know about RW he is a very talented WR. For those who want to doubt be my guest it was not far back when people were doubting Romo as well.

Roy and Romo just need to get on the same page. Basically Roy needs to be where Romo expects. I think even if Roy goes back to what he was he'll just be a compliment to Austin, but I think he could be one heck of one.

I agree. Many of these routs we are seeing are option routs depending on where the CB is lined up or the safety can determine where RW should be. Last week when RW would cut off the rout Tony was going deep and when RW would take it up field Romo was throwing it short. They need to continue to work and I have no doubts they will. I also think RW may be pressing right now but feel once they get in sync with each other RW will become a big asset for this team.

I'm excited that our offense is rolling without our "#1" receiver contributing much--if he and Romo start clicking, look out

I agree. Romo's throws to Williams weren't as on-target as those to Austin, although, Austin made a couple of grabs that were similar to William's misses.

 

[Cochese]

No more players named Roy Williams.

:laugh2:.

Ill co-sign that.

...well i've defended Roy for a while but after reading Sturm's blog, the writing is on the wall...the only receiver under 40% catch rate on the team...like i said before, this won't play out like it did with Owens and if Ogletree emerges it would just put more pressure on him...i'm beginning to think that there's a reason that Detroit could afford to part ways with him...it seems he still has that "Detroit" mindset...

Detroit ran all the way to the bank on this one and still probably have a good laugh over their rape of the Cowboys FO on that deal.

They won by gotting rid of RW and his bad attitude.
They won by not paying him gobs of money he doesn't deserve.
They won by getting extra draft picks.
