Lomas not a fan of Roy's practice habits.

 

[Hostile]

I just finished watching the Seahawks game on Game Rewind. Towards the end of the game the announcers, Dick Stockton and Charles Davis, were talking about Kevin Ogletree and then Stockton said something about how the Cowboys coaches think all 5 of their WRs are gym rats who work extra hard.

I so respect Lomas Brown, but he is going by what he saw on the Lions. Not what Roy is today.

I don't think Brown questioned his work ethic. I think it was the whole didn't pick up the football when he dropped it.

 

[Eskimo]

Picking up the ball after you drop it in practice is something for mere mortals - not the ultra elite #1 WR that is Roy Williams. Besides, the ball was obviously not thrown correctly since he didn't catch it as Roy does not drop correctly thrown footballs - so the QB should pick it up and then apologize to him, of course.

Well put.

I readily admit I was a big proponent of the RW trade. Unfortunately, he seems to keep showing and saying the wrong things. I hope he turns it around, but I'm having my doubts. He comes off as a sensitive prima donna and the numerous reports over the past year about his questioonable work ethic are looking more and more valid.

 

[Hostile]

I don't think Brown questioned his work ethic. I think it was the whole didn't pick up the football when he dropped it.

The question posed was "does he need to put in a little more time?" In other words, work harder. Lomas' response was "he does."

I watched the game on Game Rewind last night. 8 passes were thrown Williams way. The first 2 hit him in the hands but not in stride. One was high, the other behind him. 4 others were not even close. He caught the 2 that hit him in stride and scored on one of them with 2nd effort. Even Dick Stockton and Charles Davis announcing the game made comments to those effect as the passes fell incomplete. One of the 4 not close could have been a miscue. Tony threw it as if he expected Roy to come back, Roy turned upfield.

I'll regret mentioning it, but they also talked about his downfield blocking on runs. As did Bryan Broaddus last night on dcfanatic's radio show.

Bottom line, as some posters have been saying all along, it is not all on Roy here. They both need to get on the same page. They don't even know why they aren't. But the ideas that this guy sucks are plain foolish. The ideas that he is a malcontent are even more foolish.

People are up in arms over nothing and the media is looking for every new angle so the fans can jump on the pile.

I'll agree that Roy does run block well. My question is, why is Roy the only WR that Romo seems to have chemistry issues with? They've had almost an entire year to figure it out. We've seen rookie WR's come into the NFL and produce right away without having the time Romo and Roy have had together.

Preach Brother.....

 

[DCBoysfan]

If the Cowboys are going to go where everyone wants them to go, we are going to need Romo and Roy Williams to make some plays..period. Roy doesn't suck and is still a good football palyer.

No one knows why. Roy and Tony don't even know why.

They will get it worked out. In the meantime, both are more team oriented than I oriented. That is helping the team.

BTW, I don't think Tony's chemistry is all that great this year with Bennett or Witten either. I think his throws to them are sailing high and wide more than last year. Witten only has 1 TD in 7 games. Yet no one is up in arms about their chemistry.

Can I get a hallelujah Brother?

As far as Witten goes, he had 2 drops against the Seahawks that hit him right in the hands (very odd for Witten), so I think he would have had 6 or 7 catches that game. Also, for whatever reason, we seem to keep Witten in to pass protect in the red zone A LOT more than in previous seasons.

 

[Smith22]

Speaking of which, we have stayed away from the deep seam pass to Witten that seemed to work pretty well in years past. Again, I have no idea why. Not that I'm complaining, but just curious as to why that pass seems to be missing from the arsenal.

 

[Hook'em#11]

I still think it is more on Roy. Come on, This ain't Q. Carter throwing to him. It's Romo, the guy is accurate for the most part. I can see Roy's point if the other WR's, who weren't drafted highly, and don't have or had the "talent" that Roy has. If they were having issues with Romo as well. THen, he has a little more to stand on. But, it's only him. I agree, they both need to figure this out. But, Roy needs to shut up and just put it in gear.

I don't think the guy sucks. Not at all. Neither of them suck. All this chatter, no matter how it is taken, needs to stay IN HOUSE. The media doesn't need to know everything going on. You think the higher ups would of nipped this in the bud considering last season and all that crap that went on.

I am not saying Romo is inaccurate. I am saying it factors into what is wrong that some of his throws to Roy are not on target.

I am curious, does a few bad balls give him the right to point out the quarterbacks mistakes? Because I havent heard romo say one time what williams did wrong specifically, and its pretty clear he has made numerous mental mistakes.

So if romo always says we and team, why is it ok for roy to point fingers at romo? Cause I dont get that logic at all.

and throwing romo under the bus for last seasons failures two weeks ago on the hardline was pretty low. Yet I didnt hear a response from romo pointing out roy's flaws.

Why is it so hard to see that no matter whos at fault, roy shouldnt be so worried about protecting his own reputation and statistics. That is where this all comes from.

You haven't once said roy is wrong to keep passive aggressively blaming romo, which he has numerous times. I dont get it, you know better than that.

Had Romo responded to roys comments on the hardline with " I didnt throw him the ball because....reason xyz" WHat do you think roy's response would have been.

He needs to play well and stop alluding to the fact that it is on romo, all his troubles. The team needs him to become a better wr to win down the road. He should just not say anything.

cue the your a hater and the media made it up comments.

The announcers in the game brought it up during the action. It was going to come up anyway. In fact, isn't the latest theory that these comments by him were in direct response to baited questions about this? I am still curious why no one has these comments on video or audio anywhere, but that is neither here nor there.

Neither Roy nor Tony are giving up. That is more important to me than whether the fans like what he said. I personally did not care for the comments (if they were actually said) but I also see them mixed in with a lot of comments about hard work, team first, and even some self blame from last week where he said "I was terrible." His comments have not been team shaking, nor did they seem newsworthy to me.

Certainly not to the tune of roughly 12 DFW media articles and 26 fan thoughts threads on what is wrong. Much ado about nothing.

From everything I read and heard, people were coming and going from his locker because he talked for so long, so it seems it was just by chance he wasnt on video saying it.

I hope your understanding what my problem is here. Its not about hate or anything like that. I dont think he is anything like buffalo bill.

However, he has to lose a little ego and not throw in those last comments. They cause trouble, romo and wade phillips had to be asked about those comments yesterday, thats not good.

Now once its a national story, True or not it doesnt matter. Now Roy is a percieved to be a problem. If we lose the next two games and he makes those comments again, he will cause as much a problem as the other guy.

My biggest problem with him is that he has to make sure and let the media know how good he is, I am not sure why he insists on that. If he is we will see it on sundays in the future.

Another thing about the guy that you dont see on tv. In the stadium when he feels he is open and the ball is thrown somewhere else, he is constantly throwing his hands up in the air and jumping up and down etc.....That is another form of showing up the qb.

he really needs to get in line because he is just another player here. I cant tell you how much it means that he got boo'd two weeks in a row at home, the crowd here does not boo players that often. He needs to be careful with what he says or not say anything at all, especially about the qb.
