Kalisto2010 12-20-2009, 02:51 AM Well, at least the good news is that jerry jones won't think about firing Wade this week, so that makes us just inch even closer to Shanahan.
Exactly, however, it would be interesting to see an epic bidding war between Snyder and Jones to land his services.

* Miles Austin is obviously the Cowboys' No. 1 wide receiver at this point. He had the big touchdown early in the game but his catch and run on a third-and-long with 6:28 left in the game held the Saints' comeback at bay. You can tell Romo has so much faith in Austin. Conversely, why would anyone have faith in Roy Williams at this point? His drop on a quick slant in the fourth quarter allowed the Saints to continue their comeback. I'd bench the guy. He really has no business being on the field -- especially with players such as Kevin Ogletree and Patrick Crayton making clutch catches.

Mosley covered Roy Williams in college, if I'm not mistaken.
Kalisto2010 12-20-2009, 02:59 AM Anyway, hard to argue with other-Roy-Williams as an ideal example of someone who never really earned pro bowl status. Drafted high and playing for Dallas is a near certain ticket to get to the pro bowl.
IMO Sean Taylor was the best Safety I've ever seen. However, If you compare Roy Williams stats to Sean Taylor's they're almost identical. To insinuate the the NFL players and coaches were wrong by voting him in is non-sense.

GTripp0012 12-20-2009, 02:59 AM I think, and I'm doing this at the risk of 10-odd games worth of evidence, I would have to conclude that between our game with the Cowboys, and each of our games with the Saints, that the Cowboys have a better defense than us for the first time since...2006.
We needed to close at the end of a great defensive performance in Dallas, and couldn't do it. They did. We needed to close after our kicker shanked it, and didn't. They could have hung their heads and gone to the locker room, but instead, their defense manned up and got it done.
He's kind of a joke as a head coach, but I don't think I'd mind Wade Phillips here next year as our DC.

Sean Taylor Stats - Washington Redskins - ESPN (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/stats?playerId=5530)I think this is a more anti-Sean argument than a pro-Roy Williams one.
Sean definitely didn't deserve to go in 2006. In 2007, he was by far the best safety in the league for about half a season, but he didn't play in the second half of the season. He didn't play for the Cowboys, so it's not unreasonable to suggest that if he had missed the second half of the season with injury, as opposed to tragedy, he would have been passed over despite leading the league in INTs at the midway point.
SmootSmack 12-20-2009, 10:00 AM Is it wrong that when Kalisto made the obviously fallacious statement that bums don't get voted into pro bowls, that I immediately thought of D-Hall?
Am I really that bad of a fan, or do I just not really associate him with the Redskins fully yet?
Anyway, hard to argue with other-Roy-Williams as an ideal example of someone who never really earned pro bowl status. Drafted high and playing for Dallas is a near certain ticket to get to the pro bowl.
You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch
joethiesmanfan 12-20-2009, 10:03 AM fuck miles austin
My sentiments exactly
dmek25 12-20-2009, 10:10 AM WR 19 Austin, Miles ACT REC 65 YDS 1,138 AVG 17.5 TDS 11 DAL
WR 11 Williams, Roy E. ACT REC 37 YDS 592 AVG 16.0 TDS 6 DAL
these are this years stats, with Austins first season as a full time starter. i guess facts are facts, and Williams sucks
dmek25 12-20-2009, 10:13 AM then compare him to Fred Davis, who has only started a handful of games
TE 86 Davis, Fred ACT REC 35 YDS 369 AVG 10.5 TDS 5 WAS
and you realize he REALLY sucks

Seeing that Roy Williams was drafted 2 years before Sean Taylor and they have identical stats just shows that Roy Williams didnt earn anything
