Around SBN: Jeremy Lin And How The Pac-12 Missed Him

Roy Williams: 'Wide receivers ... were terrible today'


It would be kind to say the passing game didn't click during today's OTA workout, when Roy Williams and Patrick Crayton were the only receivers available who have played a down for the Cowboys.

"It was sloppy," Williams said. "I can't talk about everybody else. But I know the wide receivers, we were terrible today. We've got to get the young guys better prepared -- tell them to put their PlayStations down and get in their playbook. You've got to come out here and be prepared to practice."

Good point, but it wasn't only the young guys.

Williams and Tony Romo had trouble getting on the same page, too. The most glaring instance was a play on which Williams ran a post, Romo threw a corner and S Pat Watkins made an uncontested pick.

It won't be a big deal if Kevin Ogletree, Manuel Johnson and Julian Hawkins aren't prepared. They just won't make the team if that's the case.

If Williams and Romo continue to have issues after a full off-season of trying to build a rapport, the Cowboys will have some serious problems.

Gotta love it.  While the Cowboys receivers are slacking off and not caring much, our receivers are working their asses off.  Apparently Andy Reid was excited with what he saw out of Jeremy Maclin, and if we all remember last year, even after DJax had a good start, he still didn't get too excited. This is some great news.

i dont know

You could take it either way. AR might be overly excited because of what Jax did last year, but didn’t get too excited last year cus he didnt want to expect too much from a rookie WR.

"Eagles fans are a passionate group who love their team," said McNabb, "if not the actual players. It's not like winning a Super Bowl before the first month of the season is the hardest thing they've ever asked of me. That'd be all those times they asked me to go kill myself."

Water sucks. It really really sucks!

Is it me or does Wade Phillips remind you of that coach from the movie The Waterboy? — the one who asked if Sandler is “stu-stu-stupid, or what!?!”

Everytime I see Phillips, I go off on a idiotic diatribe repeating every quote from that silly-ass movie. i.e. “Gator-aiddddddddd.”

hahaha
