Much has been made of the failure of Roy Williams and Tony Romo to establish a bond, a connection. We're told they're "not on the same page."

What we've dome is put together a complete log of the numbers of times through 7 games that Romo has thrown to each receiver. My intern Travis Jones has then extended that research to give you percentages and just what kind of yardage occurs when each of the 4 top receivers are targeted in the Dallas passing game. Here's that table:

PLAYER......TARGETS........CATCHES.....YARDS......% Target will be Catch......Yards per target attempt.....

Witten..............48                    37                    348                   77%                                         7.25 yds.

Austin..............42                    26                    563                   62%                                         13.4 yds.

Crayton...........39                    20                     291                  51%                                         7.5 yds.

Williams.........37                    14                     249                  37.8%                                      6.7 yds. 

Right now it's very easy to see why Romo would prefer distributing the ball elsewhere. He simply has a much greater  expectation of success in doing so. A QB's goal is to move the ball. All three other options increase significantlt Romo's ability to drive the team downfield. Until Williams begins making such plays, running better patters, producing completions, Romo musy send the ball toward receivers more likely to make plays.
