Terrell Owens(notes) and Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo(notes) never really seemed very connected while the pair shared the Lone Star State, even though this was supposedly Romo's No. 1, go-to receiver. And you can be sure Owens took note of that fact.
Now Roy Williams is doing the same thing: taking note that more balls are headed in the direction of the supposed No. 2 receiver than to him, the supposed No. 1 receiver. "It's just not even close," said Williams to ESPNDallas.com. "It's not even funny. Not even close. . . . I'm the No. 1 receiver. But things are just going No. 2's way."
No. 2, otherwise known as Miles Austin(notes), has 563 receiving yards this season and six touchdowns. He's averaging 80.4 yards per game. Williams, meanwhile, has 249 yards receiving this season, good for an average of 41.5 a game and two touchdowns.
Williams lays the blame on Romo. "(Austin) gets the ball thrown correctly his way," Williams said. "I'm stretching and falling and doing everything. Everybody [else] who's been here's balls are there. Our footballs [from Romo to Williams] are everywhere right now."
Others are thinking it could be Williams' fault. It's safe to say there is a new No. 1 receiver in Dallas, though.
