He sounded like he was doing these interviews to answer criticism he received in the press. I think he’s too thin skinned.

Is this the behavior of a leader?

He wants to practice harder but felt that he looked stupid busting his butt in practice

A true leader wouldn’t care if teammates wondered why he was practicing harder then them. A real leader would have kept it up and encouraged others to push themselves.

There’s no denying he’s got talent, but insulting the play calling of your OC after half a season on the team, in public, is a pretty bad way to affect change. Then throwing the rest of the coaching staff under the bus by publicly stating that an 0-16 team practiced a lot harder is equally bad.

If he wants to be a leader on his new team, then he should lead by example like you said, and keep his opinions in house.

He had 13, 40+ yard catches in his previous 4 years but in this year ZERO

And from that deciding we werent using him properly is faulty logic. That is an average of just over 3 a year. When you consider he was with Detroit half the year and had BJ under centre for half his season here, it is not that surprising he didnt have any big plays. Come up with better stats if you want to argue getting rid of JG.

but then follow it with he had his worst year in receptions, yards and touchdowns. So when you evaluate him , what other criteria do you use ? His paycheckDo I like the way he dresses?? After 10 games he had 19 catches, not one play of 40 yards or more and 2 touchdowns for the low,low price of first round and third round pick in the draft and was made the second highest paid reciever in the NFL. The other part of your argument is"he was not used correctly" and how’s that?? If Owens dictates double coverage then an accomplished reciever should be able to get open on single coverage wouldn’t you think?? This is where route running comes in because if you can’t run the designed route then you are NOT open and therefore NO HELP TO ANYONE. So, RW2 needs to shut-up and try harder and learn something because that’s what he is so highly paid to do not run his mouth. He’s done nothing in Dallas to earn the right to complain yet but with everything he’s cost them they have a right to complain about him. It won’t take very long to see if he’s better or not in his second season with Dallas.Lastly, he needs to check the symbol on his helmet because there lies a star and I for one am sick of every time he opens his mouth he’s talking about the Lions. Learn some geography and you’’ll find out that you’re not in Michigan anymore Dorothy.

We should slow down and give both the benefit of the doubt THIS YEAR. No one will say that Kitna is as good as Romo so lets let Roy have a training camp with him so Romo knows his speed and when to look for him. And about Garrett it is his 2nd year calling plays and last year he was deemed a “Genius”, maybe a down year is the perfect thing for him to get back to his former play calling self. Another thing on Garrett, this will be his fifth year coaching period. He is still pretty new at coaching and he could be something real special.

not one person has defended Wade as the HC. While most everyone defends Garrett as the OC with everything they got. Garrett is the untouchable.

Over the past two seasons in the months of December and January, the Cowboys offense has averaged an anemic 15.5 points per game. That’s nearly 10 points down from their overall 24 points per game average. This is a clear indicator to me that d-coordinators are figuring out Garrett’s offenses as the season moves along and that he is not making any counter-adjustments. I need to see more from the guy before I become a believer. I certainly think that someone like Shanahan would have a field day designing and calling players for this offense.

that maybe RW2 is a follower, not a leader. As soon as it became fashionable to throw Garrett under the bus he fell in line lock-step with the rest of the receiver corp of similar ilk. What this team does not need it now has plenty of, and that’s receivers whose mouths are bigger than their hands.
Having said that, on the Roy Williams front, I think this guy is used to making plays using his superior size with little effort in separation from the cornerback . He may appear to be covered but he’s used to the throw coming anyway and muscles his way to the ball. I don’t think Romo got used to that this year. I don’t think Garrett got used to it either. Therefore I propose we stop all this nonsense about firing everyone but the waterboy and starting over from scratch and let’s see what kind of performance we can get this upcoming season. The team will have another training camp, intact, under its belt, the offseason workouts, the re dedication efforts of coaches and hopefully some decent draft picks/free agents. Now is not the time, when we’re arguably pretty close, to blow this team up.
