Terrance Williams was awesome

In limited opportunities tonight was awesome- that toe-tap reception in the back corner of the end-zone was phenomenal obviously, but we might forget that his release and speed caused a defensive holding penalty that might have been a cruise in TD if not for the d-back killing it with a tackle.

IMO, he has shown the ability to be not only a great complimentary WR to Dez, but on many teams would be THE GUY. He got off to a rocky start, but the kid is a stud in wait. He has a game that reminds me of Torrey Smith- (Smith is faster and bigger but Terrence has better hands) and will only get better.

In no way should the team consider moving Williams for Austin in the #2 role going forward. Miles should be an inside receiver in a 4WR look along with Beasley going forward. Miles beat his man and Hall made a great play, but part of me thinks that Miles should have mitigated Hall by leaning back toward the ball and at least be prepared to leave his feet. JMO.

TWill should be entrenched barring injury moving forward.

TWill has better speed than I thought. I look forward to seeing more of this kid. By the way, it's Terrance, not Terrence.

I love this kid. t will > austin

Oh come on, Miles has been doing it for a long long time, if two games will win you over a new kid, then you have short memory. Sure he can be a much better player, even in the short-term present, but Miles has also been a fantastic Cowboys through the years.

Throwing him into the fire from game one seems to have paid dividends. There is no better way to learn than being out there in the fight, taking lumps and bouncing back. Miles injury looks like a blessing because we still might not know what this kid can do if he only saw 1 or 2 looks a game. He looks like a hard worker and that is half the battle to becoming a very good receiver.

He comes back to the ball so hard on those comeback routes, that's pretty crazy to see.

I am loving how the kid is developing. Williams was in the same area as 2 WR's tonight on 2 plays, I sure hope if he is still running the wrong routes on certain plays, that it gets fixed fast b/c that should not be happening.

I always had no doubts about him,he was a monster yards machine at Baylor,we really need to use him more in the long game because he can win vs the opponents 3rd best CB every time.

I was worried about us forcing him in there too easily, but I'm thinking I was wrong on that front. He's starting to look pretty good, to the point that I'm cool with Austin getting bumped down on the depth chart.

I loved how he came back to the ball on his first catch like he was shot out of a cannon.

And he did an excellent job of improvising on his TD. He saw Romo roll out and turned his route upfield towards the back pylon.

Veteran moves from a rook.
