Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo and receiver Roy Williams are spending more time together in their attempt to fix a broken connection. Romo and Williams had their second consecutive post-practice workout Thursday. Williams said the extra work will continue "until that light switches over." Williams insisted comments about the inability to mesh with Romo should not be viewed as something out of the Terrell Owens playbook. Owens last season repeatedly complained about Romo's direction of the passing game. "I'm not a T.O.," Williams said. "I'm not trying to be a T.O. I'm happy to win. I've said that a hundred times. I don't understand why people don't just say OK.

Wasn't this a story on ESPN yesterday?

T.O. has proven himself on the field with three different teams, and is a future hall of famer....

No you're not.

Williams: 'I'm not a T.O.'
....cause, you know, TO actually has the numbers to back up the divattitude

That's true, you have less actual talent. Looks like you are adding the "team obliterator" to your resume though.

The boy couldn't catch the swine flu in a hog pin.

It's just not in people's DNA, Roy.

Oh - and that contract...

Dumb article.

But, much like T.O., Williams got baited by a reporter's question and is paying for his lack of foresight.

I was just about to say that.

November 6, 2009  08:02 AM ET

You know, I'm not TO either...go figure!

Richard Nixon: "I am not a crook." Roy, you need to watch what you say to the press.

November 6, 2009  08:04 AM ET

"until that light switches over."

How about switching it on instead?

If Roy wants to make a connection he should try eHarmony. The ladies will flock to all that money he isn't earning.

November 6, 2009  08:10 AM ET

You watch, he'll injure himself trying to catch a pass this week so he can prove his point.

Yep... and one comment is getting played into something it's not.

I cannot defend Roy's play on the field, but he has been a model citizen off the field. It's up to him, Romo and the Red-Headed Genius to fix their on-field problems, but it isn't like the Cowboys are averaging 2 yards a play.

It is peaceful, however, to not have to listen to the T.O. act during the week, and to see the ball getting distributed evenly during the games. TOwens is not missed by ANYONE here in the Great State.

ahhh my Eagles are gonna feeed feeed on Romo plus it's gonna be cold & we all know how Romo hates the cold I feel a 40-17 game something like that Birds !

Until 44-6 is wiped from the memory banks, you certainly have the floor on this one.

What he should do is just say I need to work more with Romo to make sure we are on the same page and admit it is his fault.
