Roy Williams Takes Swipe At Garcia
18th October, 2007 - 9:05 am
St. Petersburg Times - Lions receiver Roy Williams, speaking to a Detroit radio station this week, was asked why former Lions quarterback Jeff Garcia struggled there. He responded by criticizing Garcia's handling of certain situations.

"He blamed everybody but himself," said Williams, who was in his second year in the league in 2005. "I respected the man. I just didn't like the fact that it would be (the receivers') fault and never his fault. It's always the receivers' fault."

Williams downplayed Garcia's command of the West Coast offense, saying, "My son can run the West Coast system, and he's only 2."

Asked Wednesday to respond, Garcia said: "As a quarterback, you're always shouldering the blame. I had no problem absorbing whatever it was that I had to absorb. ... We play this game as a team, and everybody's responsible and everybody has to have accountability. That's where I felt that, at times, there wasn't a whole lot of accountability among everyone in that locker room." [READ]
