Watch this video. Listen to the tone in Roy William’s voice. He could care less that he dropped a crucial pass. All he does is harden himself and act like he doesn’t care.
Dallas doesn’t deserve an insult like this. Give us Sam Hurd. He’ll catch at least the same percentage and he’ll care about every single opportunity.

Take that sorry attitude back to Austin, Roy. This game here’s for professionals.
I’ve noticed several mainstream cowboys blogs of late that are more about access, “look at us hanging with Marty B” than writing anything critical of the Boys. I’ll let you figure out who I’m talkin’ about. The only access I need is a television, preferably an HD one, carrying the cowboy game. Seriously, access is so overrated. I’ve been in enough pro sports locker rooms to know that it’s all cliche talk. And quite honestly none of these guys are Rhodes scholars, which is why they always just say “we just take it one game at a time”. Yeah, I know its a tough concept for you to have an opinion about something further in you life than a week.
Pretty amusing how these news personalities go at it over the issue of Roy Williams. Hope you get a kick out of this.

Some people will read that title and before reading this post, send me a tweet that “duh, Roy Williams was injured and didn’t play.” Thank you, Captains Obvious. Now, for those of you who actually READ articles before responding, here’s the REAL question:
Why wasn’t Roy Williams at the game and on the sideline? Roy didn’t even make the trip to Kansas City. Do what?
The most encouraging notes from training camp and preseason belong to Kevin Ogletree and Gerald Sensabaugh. These two key additions to the roster, in addition to a healthy Barber, Romo, and Felix Jones, makes for a potentially exciting season.
Last year, Dallas was plagued with injuries at the wide receiver position. Both Miles Austin and Sam Hurd were out with injuries for significant portions of the season, leaving Dallas somewhat thin at receiver with Terrell Owens, Roy Williams, Patrick Crayton, and Isaiah Stanback. With those first three, you’d think the Cowboys could’ve done just fine. But we all know Romo and Williams didn’t click and T.O. was too busy creating conspiracy theories to focus on silly little things like running routes.
The rumor is flying around twitterville that Roy Williams broke his collarbone in a collision with Orlando Scandrick. This rumor has not yet been verified, and the consequences of this is as of yet unknown.
If Roy is forced to sit the first few games of the season, expect Sam Hurd to take the lion’s share of Roy’s receptions, while newcomer Ogletree may yet find a place on the roster for at least this season.
According to Gina Miller, for now, all the Cowboys are willing to admit is that Williams suffered a “shoulder injury.”
DallasCowboys.com posted a rare interview with Roy Williams earlier today. Topics ranged from Tony Romo to handling media criticism.
Here’s an excerpt:
What’s your reaction to the negative comments from guys in the media?
Williams: It’s funny to me. I mean, it really is funny to me. I love it and everything, but it’s funny.
Don’t kid yourselves. Roy Williams is a HUGE gamble at #1 receiver. But let’s ignore that fact. Let’s look at better reasons to bring in a REAL #1. First, the Cowboys already have injuries. Local ESPN Radio hosts Randy Galloway and Brian Estridge noted earlier in the week that both Sam Hurd and Miles Austin are recovering from injuries. That makes the Cowboys’ wide receiver lineup dangerously thin leaving Roy Williams, Patrick Crayton, and Isaiah Stanbeck as your starting wide outs.
Terrell Owens, Patrick Crayton, Miles Austin, Isaiah Stanbeck, and Sam Hurd. This was how the wide receiver corps for the Dallas Cowboys started out this year. Throw in the tight ends – Whitten, Bennett, and Curtis – and the running backs – Barber, Jones, and Choice – and this Dallas offense was loaded with potential. As the season kicked off this year, they were picked by everyone in the league as the most dominant offensive grouping that the league had to offer. Tony Romo at the helm gave us confidence, and his “miracle worker” style had everyone picking these Cowboys to go all the way. As we all know, the hype that is the prelude to the season is seldom as exciting as the reality of it.
