I’m dreaming… of an explosive offense…

Just like the teams of yesteryear... La La La...

 

With the defense playing so dominant it would be incredible to see the offense find a way to get Roy Williams involved.  If they can do that I am certain that it would open up everything else for everyone else.  Week in and week out he is consistently facing single coverage and should be able to beat that every time.

 

Part of the issue may be with Romo.  Williams’ strength is not in creating a ton of separation like TO does but rather in getting position on a defender by placing himself in-between the DB and the ball and using his size to his advantage, (much like Irvin used to do).  Unfortunately it takes time for a QB to develop a rhythm with that sort of wide out and alas it may be next season before we really see this combination work.    

 

Just imagine for a moment though what would happen if Roy caught 8 passes for 110 yards and two touchdowns this Saturday against the Ravens.  The following week, the Eagles would have to account for that as part of their game plan.  What would they do?  Double Williams and single cover TO?  Double both wide outs and leave the middle of the field wide open?  Blitz like crazy and leave the whole field open?
