The Seahawks have officially released veteran safety Deon Grant the team announced this afternoon. Grant joined the Seahawks back in 2007 when he signed a six-year $31.8 million dollar contract which at the time made Grant the third highest paid safety in the NFL behind the Ravens Ed Reed and the Cowboys Roy Williams.
Grant was a part of that "home run hitting" free agent class that Seattle attempted to bring in which also included defensive end Patrick Kerney, guard Kris Deilman and tight end Daniel Graham. Graham and Deilman rejected offers to come to Seattle and instead chose Denver and San Diego respectively.
Deon Grant was scheduled to make [...]

When Jerry Jones originally traded for Roy Williams, everyone I corresponded with that knew anything about the Dallas Cowboys thought that Williams was going to be opposite Terrell Owens.
When Owens was released, I was shocked because not only did we let go of a guy who is a Hall of Fame receiver, but we now had Roy Williams as our number one target.
It made me very nervous to say the least because when you look at Roy Williams in a uniform, he reminds you of Owens and Hall of Fame Cowboys receiver Michael Irvin.
Tall man at about 6'4 and 210 lbs, long arms, broad shoulders, [...]

The Redskins and Cowboys have feuded with each other just like the real settlers and indians of the 1800s.
Also, like their predecessors, they have been strong and have won major victories. The Redskins have three Super Bowls to go along with their two NFL Championships and Dallas' five Super Bowls.
However, to my great delight *wink wink*, the Redskins have struggled greatly due to an owner who makes Al Davis look not half bad and a general manager that neglects key positions along the team.
The Redskins have had a repugnant offense this season. Before the Cowboys game, they had 140 points over nine games. That's [...]

I repeat: Roy Williams is not a bust!
Anyone who watched the Dallas Cowboys game on Sunday would see that Roy Williams is far from a bust, but rather an outstanding quality receiver.
He has not had a great year. He has 19 receptions for 324 yards and two touchdowns. He is the guy you don't want on your fantasy team, but he is the guy I want on our Cowboys roster.
Passing is all about timing. If you don't have it, you work on it and it takes time to get it right.
The Romo to Williams passing combination has not been as explosive as the Romo to Owens combination that just lit up the [...]

There was a section on MSN.com about Roy Williams possibly being another Terrell Owens which we can all sum up in a few words like selfish, whiny, and destructive.
The quotes given were taken from a direct article by Tom Orsborn on mysanantonio.com
Roy Williams said, "I'm the No. 1 receiver, but things are just going No. 2's way.”
Immediately, one could think that he is complaining about the ball not being thrown to him, but that isn't the case here.
This rumor here needs to be blown into tiny little pieces before ESPN starts acting [...]

The Denver Broncos loss did not just affect the Cowboys overall record. Injuries are a big thing in this sport, and the Cowboys have their own share.
Safety, Gerald Sensabaugh, broke his thumb last Saturday. Andre Gurode hurt his leg as well, but the biggest injury to the Cowboys was to Roy Williams.
He was going out for a pass, and he got hit in midair, right in the chest, by Broncos linebacker D. J. Williams. It was a very clean hit, and it also bruised three of his ribs and some cartilage.
Top it all off, Felix Jones, the X factor in the running [...]

The Dallas Cowboy fan base has taken a lot of abuse over the past decade. The evolution of the internet and blogs just adds more ways for the Cowboy fans to be told how they have not had a playoff win in over a decade.
After a 9-7 season and a loss to the Seahawks, Jerry Jones wanted to get this team over the top. He "fired" Bill Parcells (Parcells retired but I'm not sure if he was tired), hired Wade Phillips, and gave Tony Romo a chance to prove himself.
After a miraculous 13-3 season, the Cowboys lost to the Super Bowl [...]

The Dallas Cowboys have been making a lot of headlines these past few weeks. Here is a chronological overview of the news from Valley Ranch, along with quick, to-the-point reaction? You’ll notice that most of the stories – especially those toward the middle and end – are like a slab of ribs: juicy in appearance until you pick them up and realize that there is actually very little meat on each bone.
