Why do we regurgitate what we hear as fact?

I just saying that this Dbag isnt a Cowboy any more, and there is no point in defending him any longer.

He is back to being the scum bag that disgraced Texas Stadium.
that deserves a big QFT

The big blue one on the side of his helmet.

:laugh2:

And ask any coach and they will tell you he doesn't the same quickness he once had to avoid the press coverage at the LOS.

fellow cowboy fan, with all do respect:

you proved the other day you dont look at the whole picture with the whole Roy Williams video tirade you threw the other day.

with out analyzing and looking past the surface. I going to post some statistics

2007 receptions yards td

Crayton- 50 697 7
Witten-96 1145 7
Owens-81 1355 7
Roy (12gms) 64 838 5

2008 receptions yards td

crayton-39 550 4 (drop off)
witten-81 952 4 (drop off)
Owens-69 1052 10 (drop off)
Roy (10gms) 19 198 1 (drop off)

Just look over for a second while I rant. TO is gone...FINE...i dont like it but I still love the boys cause thats my team, BUT CAN WE PLEASE STOP WITH THE OWENS LOST A STEP BULL CRAP. Unless every Receiver on this team lost one. This shows me one thing Qb play was worse (injuries included) and offensive scheme was not adjusted to the adjustments other teams made (GARRETT). But if you put Romo back in the line up of the games he missed TO puts up similar numbers.

One more thing...If you notice Witten had a number of more catches than TO last year (same as this year). Never heard a word about it, so could it be that the team losing was more of an irritant than than Witten catching more balls. Just a thought.

I personally wish TO the Best and I hope we fix our other problems (scheme, and careless qb play) so that we can get six.

GO :starspin


:ralph: Forum members after watching ESPN?

Look at the completions per attempts for Witten and Owens, plus drops. Lets look at the injuries Witten played with and still outperformed TO. Notice the 3rd down conversion rate Sean Payton talked about today in regard to TO.

*Shrugs* I think it's now become useless to debate the point of rather he lost a step of quickness, or not, because he's not on this team anymore and isn't going to be so it no longer matters to the Dallas Cowboys.

that i can agree with, and I fully support this team, it just irks my nerves how blind people are and choose to be. All this crap about he never congratulated players when they scored and yada yada.Could TO turn into a baby when he lost, sure could, but he is not a bad as some make him out to be.

All you have to do is watch the film. He use to throw CBs around if they tried to press him and now he no longer can do that.

Do you remember back in 05 when Aaron Glenn tried to tackle TO by the sidelines, and TO took one hand and literally threw AG out of bounds.

I had never seen a receiver do that before. The man has lost some strength, but that is not to say he is not an elite WR - He is.

Nope, TO has not lost a step at all...he was still every bit the moron last year that he has always been.

i think he lost some strength. In fact I know he has. He stopped lifting weights totally, and went with strictly bands.

The big difference is with Aikman, Irvin and Smith, they want to win games no matter who scored the points, with TO it was you have to get me the ball to win games. It was always about me, me. The trio didn't let their egos interfer with the team, TO's did,

Like I said, We didnt hear a peep last year when witten got more balls than owens. Not a sound. TO hates losing, Period. Just like we hate it when they lose. TO didnt say anything that we didnt say, its just that he said it about himself.

We needed TO to get the ball for us to win (especially after Felix got hurt) What people fail to realize is...as great as Witten is, he is not a gamebreaker. With the bracket put on TO, Garrett should have killed teams with ROY, and that Bracket would have left, and we would have been playing pitts for the the rights for 6.

There aren't very many professional team athletes, regardless of a particular sport, who do not hate losing.

Question.

Why is Terrell Owens always the exception to this rule?

if he lost a step...thats fine, and i wouldnt care. All Im saying is be honest. Say I dont like him, but dont try to make it about football skills.

I don't think it's an either/or. It's both.

If T.O. were 28, the Cowboys would put up with him. He's not.

He's still a very good receiver, but he's 35. And you don't continue to get better at 35. You tend to decline no matter how hard you work out.

This was evident this past season, if anyone cared to pay attention. Whereas teams wouldn't dare put a corner on top of T.O. in press coverage, they did it often this past season, frustrating him and stifling his effectiveness.

Sorry, but he wasn't going to get better. He's reached the limits of his talent, and he's going to decline.

And when he declines, is he going to accept that? Or is he going to blame others?

Those, IMO, were the decisions that factor into his release.

At some point, the Cowboys were going to release T.O. Better now than later.

because some people get used to losing. some people wont speak up about the problem. Tell me one thing he said that was wrong.

Donovan didnt appear to hate losing...Neither did Romo. TO never through Romo under the bus. If he talked to Garrett about it (thats what he was suppose to do). TO didnt tell the media.

My question is Yeah, why is TO the exception. Romo, Roy, threw Garrett under the bus...TO is the only one you hear about.

There is a TO double standard...period. People wanting Boldon, after he acted an IDIOT on the sideline when his team was up in the NFC championship game, but thats alright.

Pulease. This team was not ready to beat the Steelers. We had a 13-3 lead on the Steelers in the fourth quarter, and we folded like a house of cards.

We keep imagining that if we did a few things here, a few things there, we would have been playing for the Super Bowl. Don't fool yourself. This team from the coaching staff on down was never in any position to win the Super Bowl.

That's why we're dismantling this team, getting rid of bad attitudes and starting a new leaf.

Are you going to THROUGH your Owens jersey in the garbage when he signs with the Raiders?

you continue to prove my point...I never had a TO jersey. I said I fully support and root for the blue and silver, so I am not in support of #81 over the cowboys. I love the cowboys...I like TO...Thats why post mentioned us getting 6 no him getting 1.

now about your tirade, the one where you told roy to shut up about detroit already, and I said his smirk at the end of the video was more telling how he felt about detroit, than his comment about detroit possibly being next years cardinals.

So then how did we win 9 games and he only had two 100 yard games all season?

And the second one was the 44-6 loss to the Eagles!

:lmao2: :lmao2: :lmao2:

I have to get out of this thread. I could get stuck in here for like 9 hours.
