Roy Williams

Other than that he was invisible. Guy is no longer a play maker. Cue the happy go lucky posters that speak of preseason and its lack of meaning.

Well he fits right in on this defense because nobody is out there making more plays the next guy.

I'd give him a B-. The stiff arm from slaton WAS humiliating. He'll hear about that in the film room. Terrible technique again from Roy on a tackle. Nothing new there............

that stiff arm said it all...

Wait. I thought we'd already moved on to saying how happy we are to have the old Roy back and how much we're hoping we were wrong about him all off season. Now we're resurrecting the notion that he can't tackle and blaming him b/c the announcers didn't like the way he covered on an incompletion? Why do I always seem to be zigging when we're supposed to be zagging?

My menstruation cycle is out of whack with the rest of you and it makes me feel lonely.

except Ware he seems to be the only true playmaker

No, but don't need to be at the end of a stiff arm to see that Roy just isn't Roy anymore.... Earlier in his career, that guy wouldn't have tried to stiff arm Roy, he would have run out of bounds to avoid a hit. Roy's got a big bullseye painted on him now'days...

Chris Brown planted him a few years ago in preseason IIRC.

I didnt get a chance to see the game, how did he do?

Made me proud to see him hustling out there. He seemed better in coverage except for big pass and helped contain near the line.

If he gets more confidence, he can definitely be a force again.
On a scale of 1 to 10, a solid 6.

I think that might be more ridiculous than the first comment about the stiff arm.
 
people are forgetting its football. its not always our guys getting the best out of everything. the other players count too and make great plays.

we talking about a stiff-arm?....a stiff-arm? ....(Iverson Voice)

Roy's got a bullseye on him, but it's not painted on by a Texans' backup running back.
 
You guys are ridiculous. Like someone mentioned, Chris Brown (a Titan at the time) put Roy on his back with a stiff-arm several years ago in preseason. And that was back when Roy was arguably the biggest hitter in the NFL.

No, Roy isn't above a timely stiff-arm, NOBODY is. Slaton timed it well, and it was affective as it is designed to be.
 
Did you guys see Roy blow up that offensive Linemen on that sweep play...I know that it went for like 15 yards but DAWM!!!..Roys playing with aggression again!!!

I'm definitely rooting for him this year.

Naw, we took a vote, and decided to let you Chicken Littles run the board for a while...

Then we're gonna have to report you to the moderators, and have you banned... ;)
 
It just amazes me the lengths some will go to in order to criticize Roy.

A stiff arm? And saying a ROOKIE should have run out of bounds in preseason to avoid a hit?

Oh yeah...and he was invisible. As someone pointed out, who made a standout play last night? Yes, Demarcus is a beast, but who made the standout play on D last night? (cue the crickets).

Simply amazing.

I agree with that. I don't have any problems with people losing faith in him, but to say a stiff arm is evidence he's done is simply beyond ridiculous. There is not a person on this forum who could not be caught off guard by a stiff arm and conversely not a person on this forum who couldn't use a stiff arm to their advantage. It's all about timing it right.

That crap was so silly it makes you wonder if they know anything.
 
I thought Roy played well and was very physical. He played with intensity and laid so me solid hits out there.

Well, Steve Slaton put him on his rear with a stiff arm.

Just one play, and boy did Steve Slaton get the better of Roy. To say Roy's career is over because of that is rudiclee.
Slaton steal of draft - we talked about him and Rice in draft topics. Unfortunately BIG 12/SEC gets too much run/pub in hearts of Texas.
