Fantasy Football Cut-N-Go: Roy Williams Jealous of Miles Austin?

Roy WilliamsCut-N-Go is Fantasy Football FanHouse's weekday roundup of the NFL news with fantasy football impact.

You can take Terrell Owens out of Dallas, but apparently you can't take the immature and disruptive conduct, that Owens was known for, out of the Cowboys locker room.

Clarence E. Hill Jr.of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram knows that Roy Williams is frustrated with his numbers as a receiver this season. And Williams is quick to tell everyone who will listen that it's not all his fault.
But he wants everyone to know it's not all on him -- especially when passes are high or behind him.

"It makes me look like crap," Williams said. "The only thing that keeps me going is cause I now I'm not. I know what I am. I know what people are trying to make me be. I know I'm not that."
And if throwing Tony Romo under the bus wasn't bad enough, Williams had to make sure that he tried to alienate as many members of the offensive first string as he could.

Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk wrote about the continuation of Williams' tirade, claiming that he had a little more tact that Owens when T.O. spouted off last season.
"It's not even funny. Not even close... I'm the No. 1 receiver. But things are just going No. 2's way."

"He 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."
Williams may have been a little more diplomatic with his knife in the back of Romo and Miles Austin (Dallas' No. 2 wide receiver) but there is still no good that will come from lashing out. Dallas is on a three game winning streak and Austin and Romo are big parts of that success. If Williams wants to be revered as a No. 1 receiver, something that he's not even close to becoming for Dallas or for fantasy football GM's, extra work on the practice field and in the weight room may be in order instead of crybaby antics.

Other Fantasy Football Notes
• I'm not sure what's more deserving of a yawn. The fact that Cleveland actually will play in a Monday Night Football game or the fact that we still have to talk about Eric Mangini and his inability to stick with a decision at quarterback. Mary Kay Cabot of The Plain Dealer says that Mangini won't name his starter at quarterback until early next week. The Browns are currently in their bye week but play Baltimore on Monday night in Week 10.

• David Moore of the Dallas Morning News is the provider of music to the ears of fantasy football owners who have held on to Marion Barber. According to Moore, head coach Wade Phillips raved about Barber after practice on Wednesday saying, "More and more, I think we'll see the Marion Barber that we know and love."

• Even though the 49ers offensive line is shuffling a bit, Matt Maiocco of the Santa Rosa Press Democrat says Vernon Davis will not stay back to help in pass protection. Davis has exploded onto the scene this season and his pass-catching skills are too important to San Francisco to take him out of his route running duties.

• Josh Looney, who is the Kansas City Chiefs Insider, says that newly acquired Chris Chambers could see action this week.

Nate Burleson leads the Seahawks in receptions and receiving yards this season and has sporadically returned punts, but Danny O'Neil of The Seattle Times says that he'll take over full-time punt return duties starting in Week 9. This is great news if you're in a league that awards fantasy points for return yards.

The San Diego Union-Tribune is reporting that center Nick Hardwick will return to the offensive line for San Diego in Week 9. This is great news for LaDainian Tomlinson.
