Roy Williams is irralevant

[Kwmike22]

Roy Williams the safety broke his arm again (3rd time) last month. Nobody is talking about him or his career probably being over. He epitomizes the athlete that gets paid. He liked the lifestyle not the game. I hope Roy Williams WR and Ken Hamlin don’t follow suit.

So how have you and Jack Daniels been tonight? Doing ok?

What the hell just happened....

Sorry,

irrelevant

Was there anything else you had a problem with?

Now those responses got a good laugh out of me.

He's on IR. I guess that tends to happen.

Are you suggesting he broke it on purpose to get out of playing?

I just think it is sad that he is irrelevant. He could have been a hell of a player.

Well, that's not what you said. You suggested he's bowing out because he got paid and he doesn't love the game.

Roy Williams was a great Cowboy and will always be appreciated as far as I'm concerned.

That is a sacrifice. Breaking ones own arm just to sit around and get paid. Perhaps it broke because the medical staff in Dallas screwed Roy over by clearing him to play when his arm was not completely healed. That led to it breaking again and making it so it may never heal properly.

Very few players get a whole lot of pub when they're on IR.

Roy didn't go out and break his arm on purpose and from what I could tell prior to getting hurt he was actually have a nice season for the Bengals.

He WAS a helluva player for several years early in his career. He also did not seem like a bad guy, imo.

He had the most significant drop off out of anyone I had ever seen.

He literally went from being a dominant, catalyst type player, to a liability.... in the matter of 1 year.

He was an attacker more than a defender. First the horsecollar rule (and a kinder, gentler NFL) and then Parcells' 3-4...and you quickly saw a confident, attacking player turn into a tentative guy playing away from his strengths. Then a few injuries and everyone beginning to notice that he had real trouble covering guys....next thing you know he is a shell of his former self. He really was a linebacker in a strong saftey's body.

Getting blamed for most for most of the Cowboys woes for years didn't help him either. He would have had to be Ed Reed to silence the critics. Still I loved him for the first couple of years.

I hope that this wasn't intended to be a ground-breaking revelation, superior insight or nothing. If it was you clearly failed.

I'll agree with you on the "Roy Williams was a great-" prefix only if I can add "-ly overrated Cowboy." as a suffix.

I don't think it fair to consider a SAFETY great when he was consistently a liability in coverage.

Troy Polamalu is a great safety. Ed Reed is a great safety. Roy Williams isn't even in this conversation.
