T.O. and Jason Witten heated argument? That's the latest report

PrintThe Cowboys can't get out of their own way this week. I know most of you are upset with the media and think they are causing this supposed rift among the team, but I don't agree with that assessment. Seriously, the media, while exploiting the situation for ratings and eyeballs, is not making up all of the stuff that is going on. The Cowboys are a team on the brink, the locker room obviously has some issues, but they can save themselves with one simple act - beat the Giants.
If they win, they can concentrate on the playoff push and some of the problems they're having will recede into the background. At least until they lose again. I've already stated what I think, if the Cowboys do not reach their ultimate goal of the Super Bowl or even getting deep into the playoffs, there's going to be chaos anyway. So while some of the stuff going on is unsettling, it can't trump what happens on the field. If the Cowboys start winning, all of this junk will go on the back-burner. If they start losing, they were going to have a meltdown anyway and this stuff will just be part of the bigger picture of re-structuring the Cowboys for their move into Jerry World next year.
For those of you who don't want to read about this aspect of the Cowboys, I'm sorry, but it's news and I feel obligated to cover it on this blog which covers all things Cowboys. So feel free to pass on these types of posts if they are not your bag.
Make the jump if you want to read the latest which includes an alleged confrontation between T.O. and Jason Witten in the locker room.
So what's the latest and why am I going back to this subject again? From the Star-T:
..but it didn't come without a near altercation Friday between Owens and Jason Witten in the Cowboys' locker room. According to two sources, the two exchanged words before being separated. Both players acted as if everything was fine when the media was allowed in the locker room. But Owens was still clearly miffed.
What the? Hmm, makes you wonder about this report, hat tip to BTB-reader quincyyy, from PFT. I have a few issues with that report. One, are we actually supposed to believe that the song Backstabbers by the O'Jays just happened to be playing when Andre Gurode and Roy Williams supposedly called out Jason Witten for ratting to Ed Werder about T.O. I mean come on, that's stretches the boundaries of believability. Also, why the heck are they trying to bring Bill Parcells into the discussion? That was just plain stupid. The whole PFT report is very questionable.
Meanwhile, T.O. is sort of miffed and confused about the whole thing.
"I'm trying to figure out how I made headlines and I don't even say nothing," Owens said. "I haven't even said nothing. These are rumors of what I've said. I haven't said nothing of the such."
But, the whole situation took on such a level of importance that Wade Phillips felt the need to call a team meeting to clear the air somewhat on all the rumors, anonymous sources and the Cowboys players feeding the press.
"I have talked to the team, I have been with the team, I think the team has talked together. We have all talked together," Phillips said. "There is enough talking. We need to get it done. That's the most important thing. All this talk, or non-talk, whatever. We have to go out and do it on the football field. Part of it is practicing and meetings today. I think they have a good attitude about what they are doing and ready to go."
No disagreement there, it's all about what they do on the field Sunday. As previously stated, win and this stuff becomes an afterthought, lose and it will probably build on itself.
Then there's Terence Newman who managed to take a shot at the coaches on Friday.
"When coaches make mistakes around here, there's nothing said about it," Newman said on ESPN. "They just go and try to defuse it and try to put that blame on somebody else rather than owning up to it."
When asked Friday afternoon to elaborate, Newman didn't back off.
"If you preach accountability, you should at least adhere to it," he said. "So that's just my biggest thing."
Yikes, come on T-New, and the rest of the Cowboys, just quit talking to the media for a little while. You are not helping yourselves. If the players absolutely feel the need to air their dirty laundry, it should be done in the offseason. Preferably they would keep it all in-house but if they can't manage that, at least wait until we aren't in the middle of a playoff push.
Tony Romo, being the one guy in the middle of all this mess who has the intelligence to not talk to the media, did talk to somebody this week. He called the QB of the Montana Grizzlies before their playoff game in Division II to offer some advice. The one thing we know he said:
"He said a lot of nice stuff, including 'good things happen when you throw to the running back.'"
Oh no, I can see a new controversy claiming that Romo favors Witten and doesn't dump the ball to the running backs enough. I kid! But Barber and Choice should pin that quote to Romo's locker.
The injury situation; the only things we really know are Adam Jones and Montrae Holland won't play.
CB Pacman Jones (neck) and LG Montrae Holland (ankle) are out. RB Marion Barber (toe) and WR Miles Austin (knee) are questionable. The rest of the Cowboys on the injury report, including both starting safeties, are listed as probable.
Giants WR Domenik Hixon (ankle/foot) and DT Fred Robbins (shoulder) are questionable. RB Brandon Jacobs (knee) is out.

Grizz, I fully agree that winning cures alot of ills
I said it to deke in the last post, the fire in the lockerroom will either bring this team together or burn them alive. A loss will trigger the inevitable meltdown; but I still think it was cool how Killer Davis gave the media nothing, and he did it with a smile; the did not even bother to ask if he was going to play in the game, hell they almost forgot to ask RW2 in his interview.
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
None of the news sounds good, and even less of it we can know for sure, but..
Winning cures all ills, period. The cowboys win on Sunday night, and this stuff becomes a memory. It becomes the story on ESPN that says “the cowboys were an inch away from beating arguably the best team in the league on the road in bad weather, and follow that up by beating possibly the best team in the league at home.” They go from not being able to get out of their own way, to cracking ESPN’s top five of the power rankings and to being a team that everyone in the NFC should fear in the playoffs.
Lose, however, and we’ll really start to see the wheels fall off of this wagon..

The Panthers could have home-field throughout.
Steve Smith punched Ken Lucas.
The Broncos are going to win their division. There’s definitely been some arguments between Cutler and Marshall.
All I’m saying is these things happen, but because it’s the Cowboys, because it’s T.O. and because they lost to the Steelers on Sunday, things are being over-covered or blown out of proportion.
That’s not to say that these things shouldn’t be covered by the media, but 99% of the media has something negative to say about the Cowboys and T.O. and they’re not shy about it.
Winning tomorrow night is the only cure all this garbage and if Dallas somehow found a way to pull together and win the Super Bowl, it’d be an incredible added bonus that the media would have to eat their words and we would get to shut all the Cowboys haters up for good, or at least until next September.

I know this game will be heated, I just got into a heated discussion w/my dad on thurs
My dad cannot stand sheli and fully believes that pressuring him is the top priority to winning on sunday. I contested that stopping the run should be 1st then 2nd is pressure sheli, but he was so hyped for this game and mix in the sheli-hate he would not let it go

I'd say they are 1A and 1B
Because if we don’t do both, we’ll be in trouble.

Yeah
I think Sunday night will be as fired up as I’ve ever been for a sporting event of any kind, in my entire life.
Emotions have been building all week. The Steelers loss was insanely painful and then I had to deal with all the people who hound me about the Cowboys, and hounding has been at an all-time high this week.

all this energy to Sunday night’s game. Take care of the task at hand and the rest will take care of itself!

Lets hope MB3 plays and goes all waterboy on the gints D. I can just imagine him
pretending that all the players looking like JJ saying “its just a pinky toe mary ann”. I hope he is mad and fired up I want to see some hitting.

Just hope for another good game from Choice
Barber can’t cut. They need to let him rest that toe more. If they overwork it, he’ll be hobbled the rest of the year. I saw no evidence that Choice can’t carry the load in the short term.

MB3 can rest all he wants if we lose tomorrow because we will be out of the playoffs.....
It’s a make or break game tomorrow and if we can at least use him on goal line situations they should. There is no tomorrow IMO……

You mean tomorrow after tomorrow right? lol

unless there's good evidence that barber on a bad wheel is better than choice at full speed...
i say rest barber. we’ll need him the rest of the year; rushing him back is counter-productive, especially given that choice has played well. he’s certainly not the problem out there.
now if barber could play in place of proctor, i’d almost consider it…
I'm really counting on Marion Barber and Tashard Choice to power this offense
Brian Westbrooks quickness did the Giants in down the stretch, I bet Barber’s bashing can do the same
AustonianAggie
Remember,
Westbrook toasted Antonio Pierce, who’s going through a lot of controversy himself, with the NYPD investigating what he did and whether he broke any laws stashing Burress’ gun in his glove box.
There are lots of distractions, on both sides of the field.
It could be worse we could be rooting for the Lions
This is what the media does, they build you or a team up, just to tear them down. Everyone slows down and pays attention to the wreck on the side of the road. Well we just wrecked, hopefully we have a great insurance policy!
I have no problem with what Newman said
He is speaking the truth about the coaching and it’s clear coaching has been part of the problem this season from Wade, Garrett, Stewart, Houck on down.
2009 Draft here we come........
The more
this stuff happens, the more I just want year to end, have the Boys reload a tad * cough * head coach cough , and start the year all over again. GO COWBOYS!!
It's called Sex Panther by Odeon. It's illegal in nine countries... Yep, it's made with bits of real panther, so you know it's good.
He's got that defense playing light out, with the best rush in the NFL right now
and you want to start over.
Be careful what you wish for.
I have lots of problems with it.
You air your dirty laundry in house.
And Newman has no right to be pointing fingers. He completely bungled his injury and cost himself and the team half a dozen games of health performance. Had he been more aggressive in getting his hernia treated, he could have been back healthy maybe four or five games in and not missed or been hobbled for the first 11 games.
When you’re culpable for hurting the team’s performance, you have no right to call out other people, IMO.
And lets not forget, that in ’06, Terence made a grandstand play for the press, saying that teammates needed to play better. Then that same week went out and was abused by Roy Williams in that awful Lions loss.
If you can’t back it up, shut up.
Terence hasn’t proven he can back it up.
Raf did Killer Davis' inteview put a smile on you face, because it did for me,
they were so focused on anything but the upcoming game that they did not even bother to ask him if he was going to play sunday.
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
There's not ANYONE on this team, coaches or players
who has the right to call anyone else out, period!
No one here has ever won anything of importance.
I mean, really, who on this team has ever done anything when it all really counted?

Like it’s Newman’s fault he suffered a hernia injury. It’s on the Dr’s and trainers treating him to locate the injury and treat it. They reportedly thought he had a groin pull, then they shifted that diagnosis to ab strain, then it became a hernia. As soon as they said hernia, he had the surgery.
I’m noticing a disturbing pattern emerging from you regarding Newman. You seem to want to place a lot of blame at the feet of one of the best defensive players on the team.
I didn’t see anything wrong with him calling out Stewart (that’s who I think he meant). That guy sucks, and is the real reason the defense was not playing well early.

A disturbing pattern?
Take your Newman undeross off.
I’ve written LOTS of offseason pieces showing he’s been one of the best and most consistent CBs in football. Go back and read the argument on my site when his contract was up. There were a lot of people saying he should be traded or let go because of his age. I wrote a lot of pieces showing he was worth his deal. I wrote a glowing piece after the Redskins’ game arguing his value.
When Newman does something stupid, and this weeks’ comments were stupid, I’m saying so.
They’re football players, which means they’re talented athletes. Just because they can run fast and hit people doesn’t mean we have to listen to them.
And Newman himself has told the press he wishes he had had surgery sooner
Doctors can advise. It’s up the players to make the call. You do remember Shawn Merriman trying to play with a torn ACL, right? When two doctors were telling him to shut it down?
Because he wishes he had the surgery sooner
Doesn’t mean he was aware of the hernia before the season. You’re implying he waited to have hernia surgery for the purpose of screwing the team. I submit that as soon as he found out, he had the surgery, give or take a few days.
Yeah, Merriman was a totally different situation. It was widely reported that he knew exactly what the Dr’s diagnosed him with. He was afraid of losing his job to a back up who had just been signed to a lot of $$$$. So he put off the season ending surgery as long as he could.

You never call out your boss in the papers
And Newman wasn’t referring to Stewart. Why should he? Stewart was demoted weeks ago.
Newman is likely mad because Wade Phillips said in his Monday presser that Newman giving up the 42 yard bomb on 3rd and 16 “was inexcusable.” He called out Terence, by name.
And Wade was right. That play was a game turner.
Terence is talented but his comments, in that environment, were stupid. It shows that when things are going bad, he’s ready to pile on, rather than work quietly to fix them. That doesn’t make him any less of a player, but it shows he’s not mature enough to claim any “leadership” role, such as it is.
Which reinforces my claim that he should shut up.
He was saying there wasn't a rift between players.
I don’t know why he threw in the little coaches comment after. That wasn’t the point of his statement.
You don’t know what coach he was referring to, because he never named them.
That’s fine you just keep bashing him, I’ll keep defending him.

nope just seen this unfold before. I would never assume to be able to hold anything of Rafs.
Lets just hope T.New was paying attention in the practice this week. I think giving up yet another 40 + yarder could spell doom for the whole team. How many has that been for our intrepid “shutdown corner” this year? I can remember at least three +40 yarders that went for scores that we’re his responsibility. BTW we lost both of those games.
Don't believe everything you think.
Your causes are cute!!!
I have heard numerous times this year that the slot is the most dificult
position in the secondary to play. T. New used to man the slot? What happened? Our intrepid shut down corner was replaced by a rookie not even our highest drafted rookie from the secondary.Hmmmmm .
Don't believe everything you think.
Your causes are cute!!!
So what
Scandrick has shown he can man the slot. That’s good. Now they can keep T-New out on the corner. That doesn’t mean he beat Newman out, if that’s what you’re trying to say.
Wow, our CB got beat on 3 40+ yarders that went for scores. Yeah, they went for FG’s. That really lost the game.
Come up with a good point before you post next time.

Wade was way out of line
For calling the 3rd and 16 play “inexcusable.” How many times have we watched Henry (and a healthy Roy Williams) get burnt down the field without comment? And just because Buck and Aikman pipe up and say one big play can change a game, I’m not sold on that being what lost the steelers game either.
One of the last things you want a coach to do is call out individual players after such a painful loss – that kind of comment is sure to create some ill will in the locker room. And it takes away from a coach’s credibility when it comes to solving situations similar to what may be ongoing.
While I don’t disagree with you regarding the ilk of Newman’s comments, I was equally as disappointed by Wade’s pointing to that play and Newman as an individual after the game.

That just goes to show that both of them should have kept their comments in house WP to the msm and t-new to BSPN.

My biggest concern
if Tony Romo can clear his head of all this mess and follow up a horrible game like he usually does, with a good one. I think we should start with two TE’s formation, give him max protection, start slow and then find confidience and let him loose. I think he also needs to look a dumping off the ball to Choice, instead of forcing the ball down the field.
Duane Thomas said at some point that the Cowboys always win with some sort of controversy going
in some article at the begining of the season.
I’m watching a tape of this years Cowboys vs Packers game. I’m seeing a lot of stuff work. This team looked like it might never lose at the beginning of the year. They are still capable of that.
I think Kyle Kosier’s injury has trickled down to hurt the team through out, including Romo’s injury.
Come On Cowboys
This is getting ridiculous.. Easy fix, Romo spread the ball around, be less predictable, and we will dominate.. Dominating/Winning solves all of the problems..
Is it game time yet!!?
"If you see me up in the mountains with a lion, I ain't lyin
don't help me, help the mountain lion"
All this crap...........
Is sucking the fire out of this game for me. Don’t get me wrong, games don’t get much bigger than this. But its flat out disgusting that they are ALL acting like children and complaining about who hangs out with who, and who gets the ball, and who said what. I swear to god this is the same kind of stuff i hear at my daughters preschool. And shes 3 for crying out loud! I mean, how hard is it to just shut your mouth and play a freaking game that you are payed millions of dollars to play? I’m not defending Witten, I’m not defending Romo, I’m not defending T.O., they are all acting like a bunch of babies. You know the biggest problem I have with all of this? Other football teams are laughing at the Dallas Cowboys. That makes me sick. I take pride in being a die hard fan. And everyone of those guys that are involved in that little bitch fight deserves to be laughed at. As much as some of you think this goes away with a win, it doesn’t. Do you really think the media is going to back off? No way. The only thing they can do is rally around all this crap and win the whole damn thing. Thats the only thing that would make this go away. Because the minute they lose another game, Ed Werder will be waiting to talk to his “source” again.
I think there's a good chance Witten is one of the sources in all of this
And I hate to say that, as I love Witten.
And when I say I think he’s a source, I mean for the original Werder story and for the leak that he and T.O. had a near-altercation yesterday around the team meeting.
The reason I say this is both the PFT report and a writeup by Mac Engel and Clarence Hill today about the latter incident:
http://www.star-telegram.com/332/story/1091714.html
Mac Engel is an enormous pro-Witten, anti-T.O. guy, and I’m willing to bet that one of his two sources for today’s story is Witten, particularly given the PFT report. Can I prove that? Absolutely not. But the chips do seem to be starting to fall into place about who is talking to the press here and the motivations would seem to fit. We’ll see.
T-New: Don’t go on an obviously hostile network two days before the biggest game of the year. You know what’s going to happen.
Right now, I don’t care who did or said what. We need to win tomorrow, and that’s all that matters.

Yeah t-new lockeroom interview was painful to watch, he looked like he tried to defend what he said
then caved and just started saying “are there any giants quesitons?” I still love the way Killer Davis handled it, the giants, the giants, etc and he did it with a smile.
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
But what are Witten's motivations?
What motive does he have?
Does he really think confiding in the press right now serves any purpose? Does he honestly believe that talking to the press will change how the coaches coach, or how the players prepare, or how his teammates perform?
Does he honestly think that this would get T.O. fired now?
Is that what he wants?
Seriously, what does Jason Witten want? I see no reasons for doing this. You work with your teammates. You don’t work with Ed Werder and you don’t work with Mac Engel.
I don’t care how good you are. Nobody likes a rat. Witten has a lot of fence mending to do.
I think the jimmy sexton angle is interesting on this one (Witt's agent)
And i wouldn’t put it past Werder to use comments that he got from Sexton and call them “quotes” that may or may not have originally come from Witten (as much as it pains me to think of Witten as saying anything like that).
by Charles Haley on Dec 13, 2008 5:41 PM CST up reply actions
This is what I'm going with as well
…as per the PFT report.
That is, I think that the main driver here, motivation-wise, may be the agent and not the player. Witten is a stand-up guy, and I don’t think his instincts are to be petty like this. In fact, I would be stunned if they were so and it would seem to go against his character. However, if you get a little bit of frustration going (remember, Witten struggled in the PIT game at a couple of key times) and you have a motivated person like an agent to stir you on, dumb things can happen like confiding in someone like Werder and/or Mac Engel.
The motivation by Sexton/Witten would be to take away from the Towsend INT and the last pass of the game when Witten wasn’t looking, and to put T.O. in his place after T.O. was bitching to the WR coach on the sidelines as the game was ending in such a way that didn’t make Witten look so good, particularly after the INT and the last pass.
I’m not saying this happened, but I could see it happening. And the whole agent backstory would fit in with this. Finally, if the PFT story is correct, and Williams and Gurode are calling out Witten, something is clearly up. Why would new-guy Williams take sides in any way unless something was going down or there was strong evidence to support such a conclusion? That would be foolish and counterproductive. Which may be par for the course for Williams, I don’t know. But I think there may be something to the “Witten as source” angle, sadly. We’ll see.
If we win tomorrow, we can sort all this out later. Guys are competitive and things happen, and people like Werder and ESPN are only too happy to exploit this stuff. If we take care of business, none of this will end up meaning much, I think.

I posted this below...
…but I meant to put it here:
*
I’m starting to think…
…that’s Werder’s "source who regularly talks to Owens’ teammates" could be Witten’s agent, Sexton. And thinking Mac Engel’s ‘two sources’ for the T.O./Witten scuffle could be Witten and Sexton. Just a feeling. I certainly can’t prove this, however, and could very well be wrong here.
Anyways, Werder’s and ESPN’s blatant agenda to try to hurt the Cowboys heading into the NYG game could not be any clearer than this BS question Moron Werder asked Newman as Newman wanted to end his interview:
"Werder: Do you think the drama of everything that has happened the last couple of days will affect you guys mentally…"
This is a reporter and an organization trying to influence and create a result they desire. Again, the analogy is with political reporting, as this kind of tactic is engaged in all the time.
ESPN is a joke, and they need to be marginalized. Werder is a rhetorical prostitute, and nothing else. A farce.

witten's motivation
If he was the source then he made a serious mistake speaking to werder, but honestly, I am sure he just got worn down by this guys BS. TO is not a team player never has been and never will. He started this whole thing by speaking to Deon, not to mention is anctics on the sideline. This guy is cancer, and he needs to be let go at the end of the year.

Stick a fork in these guys... they're done.
They’ll be lucky to win one of their last three games. Too much chaos in the locker room and nobody to keep these knuckleheads in line.
Ignorance is bliss in this fouled up locker room, it seems.
They're not done
Actually, I think there is probably a lot more chaos on sites like this than there is in the locker room. They’ll be ready to go Sunday night. It’s a home game against a division-leading rival.
Here's one instance, where I actually agree w/Parcells policy...
…to limit what his players could say to the press.
Can our Week 15 game get here already?
I HATE ESPN.
I’m tired of Wade’s lack of strict policies.
I’m exasperated with the stupidity of those players who actually feed mediots like Dead Terder info that disrupt team chemistry and unity.
Honestly, I don’t think this current group of Cowboys possesses the mental maturity to channel this off-the-field drama into a productive and winning on-field performance from here on out.
I’ll be hoping and praying, but I’m having a difficult time believing in this team.

Heard about the Ownes vs. Witten thing at a party last night
So what, is what I say. Just win the damn game tonight guys. I’m stoked, but I’m sad that most of the media ‘talk’ will probably be about the rift. I’m having another Cowboy fan from my neighborhood over for the game, so I can’t very well mute the talking heads out (as I would normally), so I’ll have to endure it. I expect a ‘chip on their shoulder’ win tonight out of the Cowboys. GO COWBOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
