Lions vs Bears Week 4 Game Thread

[jammertime]

Roy Williams is flapping his mouth again. Nothing to spectacular, but trash talk none the less. I like - and agree with - Urlacher's response.

Roy Williams, commenting on the injuries to both of Chicago's starting corners:

"No disrespect to those corners, but even if they were in there we would still take advantage of those two," said Williams, who has scored at least one touchdown in all three games this season.

Urlacher probably won't be surprised when he hears that statement. He already thinks the Lions players do too much talking -- from Williams' belief the Lions would score 40 points a game last year to quarterback Jon Kitna saying during the preseason the Lions should win 10 games this year.

Brian Urlacher's response:

"I think the last three years in a row now one of them has said something, so actually it does kind of amuse me," Urlacher said.
What exactly amuses Urlacher about the Lions' comments?
"The fact that they keep making them," he said, adding that Williams' math just doesn't add up. "Last year, let me see. The first game they had six (points), which was pretty close to 40. If you add the seven to that, it's 13. I'm sure by game five or six they had it."

I absolutely agree with Urlacher. I've said it before - especially with regard to Roy Williams - JUST SHUT UP AND PLAY!!!

That's just Roy. Trying to shut him up is like trying to keep Sheed from getting techs - just won't happen.

I don't mind the talk. The Lions just can't back it up. That's what is sad.

That's exactly why I don't like the talk!

NICHOLAS J. COTSONIKA: Roy Williams boasts, responds to Bears' Urlacher

Williams said he soon would win the championship belts for dominoes, spades and tonk (a card game), too, and be the "undisputed, unanimous" champ of the locker room.
"You've got to be the best at everything you do," Williams said. "Beating up on my teammates is a good feeling."
See? Williams doesn't talk like this just about the Bears or Urlacher. He talks like this about everything and everyone, publicly and privately.
"If we had a bowling champion, I would be the bowling champion," Williams said. "If we had a cooking champ, I would be the cooking champ. I'm good at everything."
It's just Roy being Roy.

Is it just me, or does Roy remind anyone else of the publicity magnets that Moss & TO are? Similar massive egos. And IMO Roy's mouth is bigger than the two of them combined. There's a part of me that wants Urlacher to flatten him on a crossing route if Kitna dares to put Roy in that position...and I don't care if it results in a turnover.

Those two were detrimental to their teams. Roy does positive things, other than dropping some balls because he's trying to gain yards before he catches it. I think those are primary differences.

I'd say his mouth is more like Chad Johnson's. T.O. & Moss are just plain crazy man. I think Chad Johnson is just an egomaniac.

saw an interview with Roy and he seemed modest and humble to me. I read the quotes, but I've seen a different type of guy.......
