End of Season: Lions, Cowboys, Different Directions

I never thought I would read a negative story about WR Calvin Johnson from a Detroit Newspaper Columnist. Calvin is a load of talent, but up until now he seems to defied any negative analysis of his play. More times than not, he could use injuries as a crutch to any lackluster play. Terry Foster of the Detroit News came out swinging after yesterday's game and took a haymaker towards CJ.

What is this Year 3 of Calvin Johnson? He is leaps better than Mike Williams, Charles Rogers, and "Dropped Pass" Roy Williams. I have hopes that he can gel next year with Stafford while having alternative players bring their effort/talent/playmaking/energy up. Stafford & CJ have to lead this team from the doldrums, if not them..then who?

Oh and by the way, Roy Williams. I caught 5 minutes of the Cowboy Game yesterday, and saw a classic play by Roy. Roy had 5 yards of buffer on his CB and the ball hit him right in the numbers while Roy turned his head upfield, ending result: Dropped Ball. What does he do? He smiles, laughs, that got really old in Detroit. (how bout you catch the darn ball??) I wonder how long in Dallas that behavior will be tolerated in big D. The Cowboys had made the Playoffs this year, but face a huge game this weekend to end the season against the Philadelphia Eagles for the Division Title, and a chance to hold a playoff game. Sunday Jan 3, Eagles-Cowboys, it looks to be a must watch game for next weekend. McNabb,Vick, Romo, Williams, Austin, it should be fun.
