Romo is missing passes to Witten now too... It's not just Roy.

Well Witten dropped a few today, not sure what was up with that.

Look, the math is simple - a vet receiver with single coverage has trouble getting open and making plays when all others don't - same QB, different results. Roy has problems in this scenario, not Tony.

very flawed logic, Roy is getting open

Early in the season, with Romo being a little off, it was hard to tell who is to blame.

There is still no way of telling 100% one way or another who is to blame (and most likely; its a combination of the two)... but Romo is hitting Hurd/Crayton/Austin/Witten accurately... but is missing with Williams.

They panned to the sideline to show Williams and Romo talking; wonder how that conversation went.
Romo didnt' take his helmet off until the converstation was over, but that isn't saying anything. I love me some Roy 11, but what is up?

I hope that Roy (and Tony) get it together, the team is bending over backwards to get him involved, but we cant afford to force it to him next week. Every 3 and out against Philly could be a quick 7, I think that we played nice with Roy this week, but it has to stop. The guy is incompetent in his current form.

he is getting open, but is he running the right routes? is he doing what he is supposed to?

if you do what you are supposed to, Romo will get you the football.

According to Romo this past week Roy is doing what he's suppose to.

Or more accurately, Witten dropped a few and Tony missed him once or twice. But please don't count the hail mary to Witten as a miss. Tony is not a 100% completion passer, last I checked, but I think that you'll discover that Roy has the lowest catch % among our starting receivers.

then i guess he's supposed to fly some of his routes and run some of them under ground cause a lot of the passes his way are just poor throws.

This site never seizes to amaze me a few weeks ago people where screaming for Kitna cause Romo was "useless" now Romo can do no wrong and every poor throw he makes is on the WR :laugh1:

Me neither. He's been open too. I don't think Romo is completely ON at the moment. He's on target with Miles, but the rest of em are pretty hit and miss. I swear on some replays there are just WRs running wide open that he doesn't get the ball too. For example, he took off running on one play after stepping up in the pocket. Got about 8 yards. They showed a replay and Hurd was all alone down the sideline.

I don't feel like Witten is in a rhythm either. He's been schemed for and he's been staying in to block quite a bit.

Romo's first coupld to Roy today were way off. Then I think Roy is still not seeing the way things Romo sees them on the option routes, etc. That is not something that can be developed overnight. They have to sit down and watch film and Romo has to trust that. I think today they were making a conscious effort to get Roy involved early, but if you're going to kind of force it (for lack of a better term), if you struggle with it early it's not going to work.

But like I said, Romo has missed a few to Witten, one to Tellus today that I thought he should have hit.... I'm pretty excited when I think about what this offense COULD do if everything starts clicking on all cylinders. I think we're getting close.

romo has played pretty much flawless football for the past 3 weeks - 8tds 0 ints 918 yds - a few may be thrown off a little but over 7 receivers last week and 10 today shows it unlikely to be on romo

Roy's also got the least amount of time working with Tony in this offense. It's the nature of the beast. Option routes take familiarity between the QB and WR, and execution DURING THE GAMES.

He's been good but he's been far from flawless there's plenty of room for improvement, kinda scary isn't it? :D

At least RW can downfield block. Well worth the $45 million dollar contract and multiple draft picks we got him for.

Some of you are straight up clowns.

They're not in sync, but both of them are working damn hard to correct it. Today was a step in the right direction. There were a couple bad throws by Romo, and also some bad reads by Roy.

The huge positive to me is that both were willing to not only admit as much, but take the proper steps to get it right. Romo said it will come with more work and time in. In fact, he sounded supremely confident that they will click at some point. They're not perfect, hell they've only spent one season together, while Romo has spent his entire caree with Austin, Hurd and Crayton.

It will come. And when it does, this offense will be damn near unstoppable.

The constant whining from you guys is really pointless. What do you want to happen?

You are right. Anybody got Jerry's email adress?

I think the one where Roy went up and Romo threw the out route was on Romo today. Roy made the right read and had a step on the corner. Romo wen the wrong way.

And that's why I don't think you can sit here and just blame Roy. Its bigger than just Roy. I think its both parties involved that just aren't clicking but at the same time I do think they will and can start clicking at some point.
