  • he's like a linebacker that plays safety.......and that was the downfall of his career sadly

  • Roy was a freak at OU. Unstoppable!!

  • You know you're a badass when they put in a rule just because of how you play!

    Roy "Horse-collar" Williams

    Loved watching RW play! Great Vid LAS.

  • man among boys.. GET OFF ME CHILDS PLAY!

  • he is a hybrid blended between a lb and a ss

  • roy williams rocks!!!

  • Wtf enjoy the video!! Going to med school but acting like a little kid.

  • At :54 Is That L.T.?

  • @URD34THWISH looks like north texas so no..

  • SOONER FUCKING NATION!!!!!

  • Roy Williams was an axe-murderer straight up when he played for OU ! Man, I miss watching him on Saturdays.

  • You people talk like you think he was trying to put on a show for you. He was trying to get tackles and help his team win and I'm pretty sure he did both at Oklahoma.

  • The guy has skills but he needs to stop that damn horse collar tackling. In this whole video he does it more often than not. Shit is dangerous. Matter of fact he broke T.O.'s ankle doing that crap. Learn to tackle Roy. Right now Ed Reed is the shit at safety!!

  • What i hate about this tape is that almost all his "spectacular" hits are hits aimed for the knees:S

  • @nietstedoen so?

  • @makram85 So....that's how careers get ended! Come on man!

  • @makram85 careers get ended that way.It's much more fun to see somebody flying because of a hit to his upperbody. Then your showing that your man enough to take it head on

  • @nietstedoen if you tackle their knees, they cant run anymore right?

  • Nietstedoen.

    Your an idiot. A few careers may be ended through some leg injuries, however recent statistics are showing that all the repeated head injuries occurring from your "much more fun" way of tackling, causes serious mental issues later in life, and has killed players. SO... to reiterate, you're an idiot. I'd much rather have a few players twist an ankle or sprain an MCL or ACL than die, or suffer mental retardation the rest of their lives, but as long as watching it is fun for YOU. idiot

  • @igotsachubby says a guy that likes to make movies about his drunk friends,

    listen buddy if you think upperbody is only your head than you must have fallen on it when you were little.

    hits leading with the head and aiming for the head is illigal, so what you talking bout?

    i don;t think you know what you are talking about, i understand man.

    hey i respect that you are not so smart, you can;t do anything about it

  • If you are seriously too stupid to understand that hitting the upper body will lead to an increase in head injuries, regardless of whether or not the player was leading with the head, than you are mentally deficient. If you knew ANYTHING about football, you would know what a form tackle is. Hitting the player in the waist, or lower, wrapping them with your arms is a form tackle. It is the safest way and most efficient way to tackle. You are a RETARD. BTW I'm a senior bio/premed major, idiot.

  • @igotsachubby

    formtackeling below the waist? ahahaha c'mon man. if you think you're that smart your mother should learn you some manners. you just go on youtube start making people out for idiot and stupid.

    hey good for you that you study bio, can't understand that they let retards like you tru though.

    and don;t throw around wih random statics and then say that your right. you don't prove anything!

  • "your mother should learn you some manners" WTF are you talking about. The vast amount of misspelled words and poor grammar leads me to believe that you are simply an uneducated, worthless, puny, little man. You know nothing about football. You talk out of your ass, and think you're intelligent. You are pathetic, every person who has ever played football, knows that hitting a player in from the waist to the knees is the proper way to tackle. Be a man, and admit your stupidity and ignorance...

  • @igotsachubby

    haha you crack me up, you think your john madden or something. i'm asking you to show some statics and you don;t know what to say haha.

    my bad that my english isn't the best, but you understand what i'm saying. don;t try to act all cool. if you are as smart as you think you are then you wouldn't try to insult people you don;t know. don;t talk the talk if you can;t walk the walk.

    some me some statistics you tough guy hahaha. i only you see you say that your right witout any proof

  • Here is a medical journal on the effect of head injuries in NFL football players...

    Also, you should already know this; but, the NFL did (finally) change the policy on concussions received by players. If you haven't noticed, now when a player receives a concussion, they can only return if Medical Doctors say they can play, this is different then previous years when players would return the next play. They changed this because of the large amount of former players suffering from diseases...cnt...

  • diseases, later in life. A quick google search will show you many articles about former players suffering from diseases resembling Lou Gehrig's disease. So shut you stupid fucking mouth and except that hitting players above the waist is not the proper way to tackle, it results in increased head injuries and is a simply stupid way to tackle! for fuck sake.

    Here is the medical journal I promised, you may not be able to access this type of literature, however try pubmed, it's free to use...

  • @igotsachubby

    now i can work with that, but don;t try to be so hostile if you try to prove a point.

    it's a really bad habit. but a lot of people told you that if i have to believe the comments on your page.

  • I don't care if I sound or act hostile, you said something stupid and I called you on it. And instead of either, changing your mind, or admitting you were wrong, you decided to stand by your really dumb conviction and become even more hostile than I was. Now, admit it.

    Really, I just like hearing that I'm right.

  • @igotsachubby

    just sad that you are such a anti-social person, i hope for you that you'll change one time.

    wtf am i saying hahaha screw you dude ahaha, that attitude is going to bite you rather sooner than later

  • If you think so. Next year, I'll be in Med school... What will you be doing?

  • @igotsachubby

    that has nothing to do with it.

    again you're such a random person.

    but if you wanna know, i study psychology

  • I'm a die hard husker fan, but I love watching Roy Williams highlights. Dude was a baller

  • At 2:42 the running back was Texas A&M's Farmer (last name),that was his 1st and only carry of the game.Roy put him out on one hit,if you watch the last of the play you can see him(Farmer) react to the pain.

  • He may have been a Hall of Famer in a different era. Although, some of the Pro Bowls he made weren't deserved.

  • Jesus.

    A great saftey?

    Thats a freaking understatement.

  • IDK what the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal was talking about, Roy Williams always sucked at coverage, the only reason he was good at all was for his big hits and athletecism, but he really couldnt cover a one legged stick figure.

  • nothing that the boys love more than wasting their time on roy williams'

  • BOOMER!!!!

  • gangster

  • I heard they renamed the old texas stadium roof after Roy Williams because it didn't cover anything

    :o)

  • Hey livin...fuck you.

  • He was a beast!

  • OU aint going no where after that lose to BYU =]

  • Do you mean loss dumb ass bitch.

  • Except to the BCS national championship, at least we lose to ranked teams, unlike USC losing to unranked teams two years in a row.

  • OU will play for another national championship this year. Thanks Roy for being part of the defense to turn the program around. GO SOONERS!!!!!!!

  • fuck oklahoma

  • great player.

  • he got hurt at practice.might miss 8 weeks.

    dam shame.

  • Its too bad that 2 years into the NFL he forgot what made him good. Awful waste of space in the NFL now.

  • he didnt forget what made him good. the cowboys forgot. they tried to make him fill woodson's shoes. roy was a ss for a reason: he was killer on run support, big hits in the underneath routes & a good extra blitzer. the 'boys never took the time to find a competent FS to balance out Roy. As sad as it is to say it, the 'Boys failed Roy. Now they have Sensabaugh, so it's a slight improvement, but they don't have Roy anymore.

  • 2:22 damn i remember that, he shouldve won the heisman

  • roy u my ni99a u had a good college career and a good 8 yrs in the nfl

  • Comment removed

  • 4:00 video with nothing but interceptions,

    bone crushing tackles, fumble recoveries and incredibly athletic plays. Not one horse collar in that video.

    You are a stupid mother fucker.

  • i fckin love this guy lmaoooo k u cant say he's shit ??? he went to the probowl every year before his injury

  • roy williams cant cover worth a shit. one third my ass.

  • they meant the field. roy williams was never a coverage safety. look where he is most of the time: helping out at the line of scrimmage. he's a run-support safety, not a coverage safety.

  • RUN STOPPER!!

  • ah right, run stopper would be a better term for his job.

  • He flies at 2:27

  • His game didn't change? Please explain to me how the secondary is any different in a 3-4 compared to a 4-3? I'll wait...

    I'm not expecting a response, so with that said, the front 7 scheme changed had nothing to do with his lackluster performance in the secondary.

    He lost his drive, that's what happened. And it's a damn shame, because he was my favorite player for several years.

  • too bad he cant cover!

  • how many strong safeties can actually cover effectively in the league. hardly a few. even so, he averages three picks a season which is pretty good for a SS in the NFL. but yeah, keep watching espn armchair warrior. haha

  • wats the song called?

  • good in college, but he sucks it hard in the NFL. there's no room for him cuz he's so slow and he cant make a difference unless its a running down. no pro-bowl again

  • i hate roy williams hataz if he sucks why the hell r u looking at highlights of his u don see me looking at ryan leafe highlights

  • I don't. He sucks and was a waste of a pick....we could have traded down and gotten Reed. Damn we missed out on REED!

  • Hindsight is always 20-20.

    Roy looked like the next best safety since Ronnie Lott his first few years in the league. Besides, I think Reed is a bit overrated.

    In hingsight, I would've rather had Brian Westbrook who was picked in the 3rd round. Or perhaps James Harrison, who went undrafted in the 2002 draft.

  • lets focus on the new Roy Williams who hopefully will have a ridiculous year this year.

  • what about that piece of shit qb what excuse you got for him HOMO ROMO

  • You mean the QB who's started for a little more than 2 years, yet's widely considered around the league as a top 10 qb?

    I don't see what that has to do with Roy Williams, but whatever.

  • yea that fag he chokes in the post season like it was a porno cock. Dallas need to cut bait with that loser.

  • You mean the game in Seattle, after he led the team down the field and inevitably dropped a slick ball as a holder, which has nothing to do with his ability to quarterback a team? If so, he's no longer the holder.

    Or the game versus the Giants, in which the Dallas O-line played absolutely atrociously in the 2nd half? No QB is going to succeed if only given a second or two to pass the ball. Not to mention, we completely abandoned the run after half time, so he had to do it all.

  • no.... flash is right, roy did lose his coverage skills but dont get me wrong i live in oklahoma and i got to see roy play with ou and i still love him

  • its too bad he doesnt have very good coverage skills anymore

  • beastly. roy willaims is an defensive enforcer.

  • roy lost his game due to what i belive coaching changes and diffrent expectation from him. he is not a cover guy he is the guy who hammers and forces fumbles. with newman being one of the top corner roy should never stay deep like 20 yards. he should be clouse to line and knock people out! 2 late now cowboys released him. hopfully he find a good home and system that works with his game.

  • Absolute BEAST!

  • roy was a sick boi in college

  • lol

    I saw like a crapload of uncalled horsecollar.

    He's a solid tackler though.

  • This was before he was in the NFL. He was why they made it illegal in the first place They barely made the horsecollar illegal like last year or something in the NCAA.

  • roy is not even in the top 10 safeties anymore

  • man shut the fuck up and kiss my ass

  • we tryin to watch nfl highlights and you in here talkin about another man kissin your ass......you gay as fuck brah

  • yea he can play the box really wel at safety

    just hes not a coverage man

  • he is still hella good at killin that run

  • Damn Roy is good all he need is 1 sec to get someone down

  • i lol at the beginning

    roy williams cover?? nah

  • Im with you. strictly a box safety

  • Roy what a beast

  • no roy use 2 be a beast.....dats my nigga but he losin it

  • true but hopefully he'll get it back

  • yea he was good but bob sanders hits harder and plays better D

  • yea but bob sanders cant stay healthy dats his only set back

  • fuck bob sanders all he does is gets his ass injured for 6 games a season. Almost a lock to never play a full 16 games.

  • GO SOONERS!

  • Roy Williams is perhaps the most disruptive defensive player in NCAA history. Was a freak of nature ~ plain f'n awesome. BOOMER SOONER

  • this is awsome roy williams is a fuckin g

  • ha 1:43

  • i like tht in the begining

  • whats the song called and whos it by, for my high light reel

  • The quote is funny.

    Covered? Roy Williams is horrific at coverage, I'd rather see a Darren Sharper in my team than Roy Williams.

    P.S. I'm Die Hard 'boys fan

  • Roy Williams has NO coverage skills! His foot speed is bad too. He's overrated for a DB

  • Roy Williams is to Rocky Marciano as Darren Sharper is to Muhammad Ali...

    Get the simile?

    Roy overcompensates his lack of coverage speed by showing his presence in the secondary and that is a fact. Rocky overcompensate his lack of boxing skill due to brute strength and that is also a fact.

    At the end of the day, who has no loss in their record?

    That's right...

  • Fact is he's overrated, which i'm sure you can agree with. Needs to play linebacker

  • Was Rocky Marciano overrated when they said that he fights with his strength than with his mind? You really don't get the simile but that's ok.

    He is rated the way that he should be rated. He might have no coverage at all but if the receiver knows that Roy is where he would catch the ball, its just as good as a coverage safety because the receiver would hesitate and consequently not catch the ball.

  • Oh i get the simile alright. I like the Cowboys from way back when they had Deion but at the same time i won't be blind to the fact that offenses go right at him in a passing situation. Hell, i haven't even heard Roy's name during a game this year. He's an ok player that they tried to make into a superstar, which he's not

  • He's one of the best players at safety when stopping the run, and he's below average in coverage. The problem is the system has changed quite a bit lately and they've been asking him to do more coverage. When Darren Woodson was there he could creep up into the box and he was a pro bowl caliber player. Not as much anymore. Also, the reason that you haven't heard his name much this year is he's played very little due to breaking his arm, and then rebreaking it soon after he returned.

  • I can agree with you on some of those points. I remember them saying that he would get taken out in 3rd down situations cause offenses would single him out knowing he was the weak point. I think i posted that last comment prior to him breaking his arm though

  • Probably so. I'm not sure when he broke it the first time, I just know he hasn't played very much at all this year.

  • now dallas has two roy williams

  • go dallas

  • too bad he cant cover a tight end in a division where everybody uses their tight end.

  • why cant he play like that for dallas

  • ROY CAN HIT...But has the covering ability of a lineman

  • he should have beem a line backer

  • Sean Taylor was a herder hitter and a better player

  • skins fan?

    sean taylor is a better player, we know that but the word "was" defines it all...

  • roy is fucking beast

  • funny how in all those plays he isnt covering anyone downfield... Sean Taylor was over rated and then glorified cuz he got shot....prolly by doin some shit he didnt need to be messed up in. Roys playin ball...even if its on 3rd down....Taylor is in a coffin....and your bitter and have a small cock and need to shoot yourself for bein a redskin fan. Eev if the skins beat dallas they still go 7-9 and pay too much for old men. Hows Jason Taylor workin out for ya?

  • seriously dickhead you should hang yourself

  • he should be a linebacker

  • Is it just me or has the Cowboys secondary been playing a lot better without Roy Williams ever since he got injured????

  • he's garbage and he's a bust, a safety has to cover as well as being the 8th man in th box, if he was gonna be LB then he should play LB. Have fun being a 2 down safety and have fun knowing that Phillips has no confidence in you playin in 3rd down passnig situations...hahahahahaha fuckin Cowboy scrub. Sean Taylor was 1000000000000000000000000000X'­s better, fuck you faggot ass Cowboy fans, TO sucks Romo's cock and Crayton is just down right pathetic. Go worship your crack smoker some more. hahaha

  • roy williams is a beast .... cowboys will win the super bowl

  • get off hes shit

    hes a great person and can and most likely will improve!

    if he continues to play like he did in his first year with dallas he could be the greatest safty

  • You are right. Im a Cowboys fan too and he has became a big liability to us. Everybody knows when you need a big play to go deep down the middle and test Roy Williams. Nickel LB would be perfect for him.

  • Roy will make the Pro Bowl no matter what you all say. LOL

  • shit that quote is for ed reed only xD

    even if its not made for him it fits the way he plays. i agree with 11roywilliams11

  • Roy Williams can cover? That's news to me, I knew the guy can hit but he is otherwise heavily overrated!!

  • ya i know wat ur sayin he does suckim not a fanboy but i liked him & taylor, but 2006 & up he just blew.

  • Some badass hits but too bad he's wearing that ugly as uniform.

  • As a dallas fan im giving Roy this year to prove himself back to his old form. I cant even remember the last time he made a big play. Roy better be ballin' this year

  • he sucks ass in everthing now....

  • I agree. I like Roy and think he is a great player and a very solid guy, but I can't name one NFL receiver that he can cover. This year's defense should finally get him close to the LOS on rushing downs. Other than that, he watches from the sidelines.

  • i agree with both caca and wrestle.. roy needs to be put a lb and he is so overrated. he only goes cus of the jersey he wears. put roy in a browns or seattle uniform, he wont make it every year. not a top 10 safety in my opinion.

  • why is he always going to the pro bowl? I swear to god, he is one of the most overrated players in the nfl, hes terrible in pass coverage, is always getting beat, and is easy to fool on play action passes! Adrian Wilson of the cardinals is very underrated and is better than roy williams.

  • ok everybody roy williams is a good tacklers (some of the times) but not a good coverage and ss usually arent and hes old ok thats why he may not start but we dont want him to retire without him starting alright? he can tackle just not as good anymore

  • Roy Williams is a decent tackler but is horrible in coverage, though at first he was decent at coverage, and usually safties are actually good cover guys, not to mention Roy Williams is only 27 so i wouldn't exactly say he's old. He's middle aged for NFL players, but not old.

  • wow when he was good at football

  • yeah, since he's so bad and everything...no.

  • wasn't he a linebacker in college too?

  • Even though I'm a Cowboy fan, I promise you that he's going to horse collar someone during the season at least 3 times. Its so sad, its in his blood and that's how he was probably taught to tackle and since he did so much its impossible to change. I guess the fines and suspensions will make him wake up, but I'm not sure about that. Usually when he horse collars people like he did with McNabb he was out of position which when he does it because of that reason most of the time.

  • can't remember the last time williams was able to cover anyone.. don't wear collars around the guy.

  • sean who

  • Have you ever even WATCHED him? I think not. He misses almost every tackle he attempts...gets dragged/driven backwards on the ones he does manage to "make." He's an absolute non-factor around the line of scrimmage. He makes Pro Bowls because of his reputation from his early years.

  • ahh...the good ol days

  • EmceeNolan is a great example of an armchair quarterback that has probably never actually played football.

  • What difference does it make if I've played football or not? Your statement is so cliche that I can't even figure out why I'm responding in the first place.

  • Worst play in NFL history lol, what Roy do take your girlfriend Nolan? Sure he hasn't been great the last couple years but he's now way is he worst player in NFL history. Why would he still be on a team if he's the worst ever, are you just a better talent scout then NFL coaches?

  • He is still great, he just needs to work on his coverage. He will improve dont worry.

  • So coaches are never wrong, huh? I can't possibly be right while they're wrong?

  • It won't work because he's the softest, worst tackler in NFL history.

  • You're a fucking idiot. The rule was put in place because it's a dirty tackle that talentless pieces of shit (such as him) have to resort to because they literally can not get anyone down any other way. He is absolutely awful. Nobody who knows ANYTHING about football thinks he's anything better than the worst player in NFL history.

  • not hating good player good run support...just wish he didnt horse collar so many people that shit gets guys hurt

  • He's AWFUL in run support--worst in NFL history. People need to open their eyes and stop thinking that he's the same player he was his first few years in the league. He's played worse then last two years than any player in the history of professional sports. The softest hitter in history...and a worse tackler than anyone else is at anything in life.

  • I remember that whenever someone got hit by Wiliams, they almost always never got up or never got up straight afterwards.

  • That's because he would horse collar them and break thier ankles. You have to love a player who is so dirty they make a rule specifically because of him.

  • That's because he would horse collar them and break thier ankles. You have to love a player who is so dirty they make a rule specifically because of him.

  • wow! good plays against North Carolina, Air Force, and North Texas! play real teams OU.

  • 02:21-02:22: There's your real team being thrashed.

  • dont be mad

  • barthlow hes typin not talkin

  • hitting a guy coming full speed right at u in the chest is rarely goin to bring him down. you have to drive through him below the waist

  • masss puto

  • he's gay

  • fuck u yr gay puto

  • look whos talking

  • bigcbizzle, ur a fag. grabbing sumone's legs is a bag way to tackle. retard, maybe u shuld know wut ur talkin about before u talk.
