Roy Williams Filling in for Sean Taylor in Pro Bowl
 

Cowboy's safety Roy Williams is filling in for Sean Taylor at the Pro Bowl. If someone already posted I apologize. Wish someone else could have filled in for him than that dirty ass guy.

I hate to say this, but I personally think Roy Williams feels quite honored to be selected to fill in for Taylor. I read somewhere that Willimas said he was looking for Taylor on the sidelines after the first game in Dallas to encourage Taylor to take care of that knee.

Williams aint my favorite player, but he damn sure plays hard every down.

As much as I detest the Cowboys and Roy Williams, I must admit that I gained some respect for them after ST's death.

I agree with you.

I guarantee you Williams will honor Taylor in his own personal way.

I can see that. Williams might be the king of the horse collar tackle, but he is a stand up guy. I actually respect him.

Re: Roy Williams Filling in for Sean Taylor in Pro Bowl
 

I've seen interviews with him and he seems like a stand up guy, as for his horse collars that's another story.

Hate to be sour grapes, but I'd have preferred Landry. RW has done nothing this year but make an ass of himself, continually horsecollaring his way to mediocrity. If he didn't play for the Cowboys, he wouldn't even be among the top half of the league in votes at the safety position. I can think of 5 more deserving players, easily.

Well put

Personally I feel that there was no need to select anyone. Just leave the spot open in honor of Taylor

You are right 12th. Here's Williams quote on being added to PB roster:

"I appreciate being the first alternate to go," said Williams, who is going to the Pro Bowl for the fifth straight year. "We are going to do something special for Sean and his family."

I wonder what he means? I know the NFL was already planning on flying ST's family out there...

Had no idea Williams said that. You know, many of these guys have a ton of respect for each other away from the grid iron. Without knowing for sure, I really believe Taylor had a lot of guys around the league that really respected him for the way he would bring it on Sundays. Conversely, and it has nothing to do with this thread, that's why Philip Rivers jawing is leaving a bad taste in peoples' mouths after he was talking smack last week.

Maybe he'll wear ST's jersey and helmet?

Re: Roy Williams Filling in for Sean Taylor in Pro Bowl
 

He has mad respect for Sean Taylor.

Every once in a while I find myself still in disbelief that ST is gone.

Anyone else get the 2008 Redskins calendar? Sean Taylor is January.
