Roy Williams is an Animal! Be Afraid...Very Afraid!

Ok we can keep on talking about who will win and why they will win how close and a blow out,,,,but the fact is that Lion fans expect the LIONS to win and, the texans fans expect the TEXANS to win. So let me make my guess.............hmmm..............tough decision.......................ok...........

I'm really looking forward to scoring 30 points or more. Correct me if I'm wrong, but we haven't yet right? I'm also looking for Carr to throw for more than 300 yards. Not yet either right? I would like for it to happen this Sunday, but I'm not counting on it. Matter of fact the edge goes to Detroit because of Ford Field. I think it's a winnable game, but it concerns me.
 
We have never scored 30, but Carr has passed for 300. It was last year @TEN, I think he had 371 or something like that.

Carr has had one 300 yard day, 19 sub-200 yard days, and 8 200+ yard days. His big day was 371 yards with 2 TD's and 3 INT's

And for the guy that said AJ was a classy and quiet dude. Please he was a loud mouth cocky player at Miami and nothing has changed. Maybe he hasn't done anything in Texas yet, but he is far from a Choir Boy.

Kingz, with all due respect, you're totally off the trail on this one. As someone who lives waaaaay too close to the Cane Nation, I definitely recall Andre as being one of the few Canes who had his head on straight. He IS a relatively soft-spoken guy who focuses on the business at hand. His comments on Joe Horn's ridiculous celebrations last year confirm that he's still that way. Don't let the Cane stereotype (which I think is VERY valid) get in the way of your opinion of AJ.

Now, how he managed to STAY quiet around the bunch of loudmouths at U-M remains a mystery to me....I just hope your boy Roy follows the classy road, because I loved to watch him dominate in Austin! I also hope he stays healthy--but has a really bad day Sunday. :hehe:

First off Glenn isnt even a top 20 corner, because he is over the hill... and second my point is that any shmoe can jump in and play WR, but you need ALOT of technique to play CB, hence AJ couldnt play CB...

How do you guage this? Which criteria do you use to 'rank' a cornerback? Unless you have the previous 5 years of game film on Aaron Glenn, then you need to retract that statement. Age doesn't equal effectiveness, and last season, Chad Johnson and Marvin Harrison both said he was one of the best in the league. I trust their opinion on him much more than yours.

Detroit Lions suxors teh big one!111

HEY I GOTTA QUESTION??????? HOW WOULD HE BURN AJ IF HE WOULD NEVER ESCAPE THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE????? THE GIANT IS NOT A SOFT PERSON, HE WOULD PUT ROY ON HIS @$$ BEFORE HE COULD GET OUT OF HIS STANCE.

NOT SAYING HE CAN PLAY CORNER. IT WAS A BIG JOKE THAT I PUT ON THE FIRST PAGE ANYWAY. GO TEACH YOUR QB HOW TO NOT INJURE HIS RECIEVER/RECIEVERS WHEN HE THROWS THE BALL. (CHARLIE??????)

Roy is probably strondger then AJ... plus he runs a 4.4 40...

You lose a lot of credibility when you make a statement like that. Look everyone around here likes RW a lot, but one look at the two of them shows a marked difference with AJ appearing much stronger (might have something to do with the almost 20 lbs of extra muscle AJ has on RW)--and by the way AJ runs a sub 4.4 40--believe he ran a 4.38 at the combine and 4.28 at his pro-day.

The Texans were fully represented when Johnson ran a 4.28 and had a 41-inch vertical at his March 6 pro-day workout. GM Charley Casserly was in attendance and could very well use his team’s No. 3 overall pick to select a top target for David Carr, like Johnson.

and one of you lions fans said that roy is faster than glenn? well glenn is one of them players that i dont think has lost a step. he is just as fast as he was in 02 and no one just ran straight past him in 02 and the only person that might have a chance of doing that this year is randy moss. i know glenn is faster than dre bly though. haha roy wasnt even faster than his own in collage QB . ANDRE IS FASTER THAN ROY. andre won indor 60m and 100 meter outdoor titles in collage the big east championships in 02. i dont have official times but it had to be around the 10.2 range. thats pretty fast for a 6.3 230 dude plus andre ran 4.38 in combine

Roy Williams was third at the Texas state high school championships his senior year in high school with a time of 10.48 in the 100 meter dash. He also set a state record in the long jump with a leap of 25-6. He also finished second in the high jump by clearing 6-10 (although he had the same height as the winner, he was second because he had more misses during the competition). All by himself, he finished in fourth place among all 5A schools at the 2000 meet.
Roy's 2000 state meet

Roy also ran a hand-timed 10.08 that year.
Roy's 10.08

Andre Johnson was first at the Big East conference championship his junior year in college with a with a time of 10.59 in the 100 meter dash. If he had run in the same high school race as Roy Williams, he would have finished tied for fifth place.

Actually the Bears Defense was really impressive. They have very good LBS, They have a shutdoen corner in Tillman and Mike Brown is a really good safety. Both are rated higher than any of your guys. They also have a Pro-bowl LB in Urlacher so I am not sure where you get your info from.

On offense you guys might be slightly ahead of them, but not by much. Davis is still a 2nd year player, same for AJ and Carr well he is in the same boat as Joey H. You forget you are coming to our house. We are a much better home team. Also last time I checked it doesn't matter if you win by 1 or 100 it still is a win.

Just an FYI, I think overall we are pretty even talent wise, but I don't see you guys beating us at home. We should prevail 28-14.

Alot of you guys are predicting beating us by 10-14 points. I doubt that at all maybe 2 or 3 at the most, if you win. You won't though! :thumbdown

Holy Smokes! How do the Lions fans come off as If they are the defending SB champs? They won a road game and it is considered a huge milestone. The Texans beat Miami on the road for there home opener last year and went 5-11. The patriots went 0-2 to start the season and won the SB. If we are even talent wise why do you have the Lions scoring twice as many points as the Texans? The Lions havent won a playoff game in what...35yrs? Your coach said that both of our teams are similar in that they are both developing clubs. What?! almost 40yrs of existance? You guys have no idea what its like to be an expansion team with NO debth. Also, EVERYBODY thinks that there home field is brutal. It just another road game bro. Also, at the RB position tenure is not as important. Earl Campbell won the rusing title his rookie year. And Oh Yea that Chicago defense is some powerhouse Im sure we suck compared to them. Bottom line is you SHOULD win this game easily considering the Texans are in there 3rd yr. and they are on the road.
 
This "Ford Field is a tough place for visiting teams" is a cute idea and all, but it didn't seem to stop the Chargers from whipping the Lions in Detroit last December, did it?

So before we continue with the "nyah nyah, Texans lost to SD" stuff, let's remember that the Lions laid an egg at home against the Chargers too, late last season. Back then, there was NO DOUBT that SD was horrible. Heck, I think they even coughed up the ball more than Detroit, and the Lions STILL lost. Anything can happen.

Lions beat the Cowboys 38 to 6 in 1991, in the Divisional playoffs, after a bye week from their 12-4 record, and proceeded to lose to the Redskins in the NFC championship game, who went on to win the superbowl against the Bills, a team the lions had just beaten a month earlier, at Buffalo.

2000 was a bad year. Coach gone, lost a lot of players, had to completely rebuild the team from the Bobby Ross power football to west coast offense. You are developing, we are re-emerging after a rough stretch, something all NFL teams (including the 4 time world champ Detroit Lions) go through. Team has been in existence since 1930, and in Detroit since 1934.

I see this as a close game that the Lions win.

AJ's strength allows him to retain his speed while wearing pads. :boxing:
 
Kingz seems to be overconfident, its True we didn't look that good. But it was 2 weeks since our starters ha played. No excuses this game will be tough for the Lions. Should be close, but we usually play well at home. roy and Andre are very similiar both will be pro bowl WR i think. Once Joey and Mooch open things up on Offense it should be interesting.

Roy has shown some amazing skills thus far. I only hoped we drafter Andre instead of C Rog. Would be nice to have the two lining up this year.

I think this game will go into OT. By no means are either of us where we want to be.
 
Personally.... I think Dunta is gonna have trouble covering Roy, or hell, even Glenn is. I think he has 100+ yards and a TD.
 
Texas never played South Carolina while Roy was there.

In fact, I don't know if the two schools have ever played each other. I know they haven't played each other over the last 15 years.

again, the Lions and Texans seem to shadow each other again... The Lions nor Texans got best by the San Diego Chargers... they both got beat by LT... the best PLAYER in football...

You think Aaron Glenn isnt still a pro bowl type corner ? He's still just as quick as ya boy Roy. And i bet Williams wont burn off and get a score on A.G. Your guy plays ONE game and you think he's ready to burn the top corners in the league ? I admit he will be good but he still has a lot of learning to do ,,,,,expect him to be shut down by Glenn !
Click to expand...
Yeah, Aaron Glenn really looked like a Pro Bowler today against Roy.
 
jacquescas said:
unfortuneatly we have a weapon to stop Roy. Aaron Glenn. Say what you want, but a rookie WR starting his 2nd game of the season is going to have trouble matched up against an all-pro multiple probowl corner all night. Glenn will shut down Williams and leave Dunta to hand Tai Streets.

Roy Williams will have a tough time making an impact this week. As for the rest of the season, i think he will be a stud, this week he will learn alot since he will be the key focus of the defense.

Yeah, Aaron Glenn really shut down Roy Williams today.
 
Roy Williams is even better than I expected. I like Andre alot but......Roy Williams has awesome hands, both have terrific work ethic and overall professional behavior, class acts. Detroit clearly had the class draft of this past season, the Texans fared better than average both Robinson & Babin are solid but the Lions have a #1 WR with a #1 RB plus extra #1 pick next year. At least they (Lions) can take solace in the fact that while Charles Rogers is a bust (Twice broken collar bone) Roy Williams is not only the equal of Andre Johnson he looks to be worth that #2 overall pick.
 
Even though I pretty much expected this from Roy, I was still a bit surprised. The Longhorns non-use of Roy last year really did a number on our collective memories.

I didn't realize that Detroit had drafted 4 Longhorns in the past 4 years. It's easy to find bargains from Texas, I guess. The coaches at UT have no clue how to tap into the talent they recruit. It's such a waste.

How is he a bust exactly? Most WR's don't go nutz until year three, and Rogers has shown he can dominate at the NFL level.

Bust implies he has no talent....if you want to say injury prone, I fire back. It's the "SAME" injury, and now they replaced that injury with metal

We can rebuld him

Thats not his contract, I was just picking a high number, but if you want a lions bust

Stocker McDougal Right Tackle

20th selection in the 2000 draft

Big Disapointment, is only an average player.

(then you can look at recent history :rofl: Gisbson, Fair) Anyway, I know what a bust is. Rogers is way too talented to be a bust based only on his collarbone injury.
