Roy Williams

So i was putting together a Christmas list today (actually just adding some stuff on), how is that relevant you ask?
Well I was looking at the Cowboys store online (the one directly from their site not the proshop, i dont know if theres a difference though), anyways I noticed a few things had dropped pretty far in price. However they were all Roy Williams jerseys. Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but usually these things coincide with the player moving on. Anyways, I just thought I'd point that out if anyone wanted to know.

It just means people aren't buying his jersey like they used to.

That shows that people are seeing him for what he is. He tries to be a highlight and not a fundamentally sound team player. He never aceepts blame, he does not handle criticism, and he beleives that he is above the team, Is that what he is?

My wife insists on personalizing every jersey for my son. Boy wants a Jason Witten for Christmas since he got to meet him last year at school.

just watching ESPN and saw that Roy may be suspended for the latest horse collar tackle...

do any other cowboy fans besides me really hope this happens... i have a very strong feeling we'll be better without him :nod:

Well that was kind of bull though, he had part of the jersey, but his hand was clearly below the nameplate, meaning theres no way that it was inside the pads. Donna Mcnabb is just a giant flopping pussy. They call 20x as many horse collers on Roy as any other defender. (Yea i know the rule was made because of him but they shouldnt let others get away with the **** he gets called for) I dont think i want him suspended though, as bad as he is, hes still a hundred times better than that punk ass Nate Jones. I know Watkins would fill in but it would eventually come to Jones getting more playing time which is bad no matter how you slice it. If he is suspended though i hope he doesnt appeal, just serve it right away against carolina.

Actually, I didnt realize Watkins injured his ankle and wont play next week, ugh.

And there it is, hes suspended one game.

The Cowboys will be without safety Roy Williams against Carolina. Williams was suspended without pay for one game Monday by the NFL after his third illegal "horse collar" tackle of the season.

Williams, whose use of the tactic led to the league passing a rule making it a 15-yard penalty, did it against Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb in Sunday's 10-6 loss. He will miss Saturday night's game, which will cost him $37,187 -- one game's salary.

Grabbing the inside collar of the back of the shoulder pads or jersey, or the inside collar of the side of the shoulder pads or jersey, and immediately pulling down a runner brings a 15-yard personal foul

Good. We need to revamp our safeties anyway after the season is over

Roy is a pinhead. The horsecollar penalty is based on his excessive use. The JJT note was barely english. He does not ever accept blame for anything. He wants to make every highlight film. As I have written this, My opinion changed. He is a 5 year old, base need monster. Immature, naive, ridiculous.

When does that contract expire?

I have not been impressed with Roy this year at all. Outside of that horse collar tackle, what else did he do in that game? Or the previous one? I don't remember anything he's done in a while. Nothing consistently well for the season. When was the last time he layed out some receiver over the middle? Much less bat down balls? Blitz? He had that one big hit on a RB (GB game) for run support, but he used to do that once a game before.

Hamlin has been the free saftey prototype we wanted and Roy is still the lost guy out there having no impact.

I was reading back trying to figure out his contract. Many blogs told us about this "great" move, resigning him for 5 years. I think the look back will show the mistake it was. He cannot tackle, cover, or think on the field. If he cannot do any of those, then what good is he?

This is also from a guy who believes he is a team leader. Team leaders take responsibility for their mistakes and shield their teammates from the criticism. He takes n o such responsibilities, and as I have seen it, blames his teammates for his failures.

well with pat watkins out this may actually hurt us... honestly i think pat watkins + hamilin is better than hamlin + roy

Can someone play Ro Sham Bo with Nate Jones before the game? (Just make sure you get to kick first). Or just chloroform him?

Seriously, an untrained Monkey would be a better DB than him.

Hamlin has proven to be a good cover safety. rarely burned. That was supposed to be a fault of his. His price just went up with this Pro Bowl announcement
