NFL.com: Austin, Bryant better than Megatron? Cowboys' Ryan says yes

Love it. Who coined "Megatron" as his nickname? Is there a story to the name or is it simple because he just destroys everything (defenses I mean)

I believe Roy Williams (the receiver) started it waaay back in Johnson's rookie year when they were teammates. Just because he's bigger than everyone.

Particularly, his hands.

When Roy Williams gave Calvin Johnson the nickname “Megatron” during their 2007 season with the Detroit Lions, he was referring to Calvin’s size—particularly the size of his freakishly large, “Deceptacon-like” hands.

"Megatron is a different athlete," Roy Williams said back in his days with the Lions. "He's bigger and faster than me.”

The dude is just .. my god. I had no clue he would be this good.

Megatron is the best wide receiver in the NFL right now. He's putting up numbers at a RIDICULOUS rate. And the results are more of a product of just being bigger, faster, stronger, and simply BETTER then every defensive back hes playing against. No other receiver in the league has the type of speed, hands, strength, and size of Calvin Johnson.

You can say Larry Fitz, Andre Johnson, Randy Moss(in his prime).

Megatron has the hands and jumping at the point of catch like Fitz, the size and power of andre, and the speed and fluidness of Randy Moss. He's on a different level right now.

Especially since he finally has some legit QB play. No shot at Shaun Hill intended, but Stafford can get him the ball downfield in a way Hill couldn't.

I didn't think anyone would get close to Moss's 23 TD's he caught back in 07, but if Stafford stays healthy Megatron has a chance.

Man, I used to say without doubt that A.Johnson was the best WR in the league, but Megatron is giving him a serious run for his money. Those two touchdown catches he caught were crazy.......

Oh yeah, T.Newman is a little *****. He tried to rip Johnson's face off after he got Moss'd yesterday.

If he keeps up his pace, he will shatter the record.

Before anyone reads this can you please make a new thread of this for me because for some reason I can't post new threads and entitle it : I GIVE UP

I give up.

I have been a cowboys fan since i was 5 years old. I have tried so many times to stick it out with Romo sits to pee

Well Mr Clutch, Mr Meltdown, etc... does it again. As soon as he threw that first pick for six I started to get the old feeling back -- you know the one --where Tony blows the game. Of course it's a team sport so he had a lot of help. Like the offensive coordinator and head coach Jason Garrett. Why with 10 minutes left in the 3rd quarter (with a 24 point lead) do you call sideline pass plays and why would Tony ever think he is good enough to pass into double coverage? They already had a fairly decent running game established. They should have just ran the ball down Detroits throat until they figured out a way to stop them. But no, Garrett lets good old Tony start slinging the ball around and those two pick six's brought life back into Detroit. I realize that we don't have any better options at this time than Tony but with luck someone in the Cowboys organization will start thinking about drafting a Quarterback. Romo sits to pee isn't a starting Quarterback but he would make an OK backup or third string Quarterback. Jerry Jones, it's time to start thinking about the team and not Romo sits to pee's feelings...

Im so sick of Jerry Jones defending him and Jason Garrett saying " We beleive in Tony this team beleieves in Tony" JUST STOP im DONE.

Atleast when the Eagles lost yesterday this is what Andy Reid said:

"It was terrible coaching and we played bad, it was a terrible coaching performance"

Mike Vick went on to say "It's something I need to do better I take the blame"

Romo sits to pee can't even say "I'm sorry to the fan's Im sorry for blowing this... not once.. unreal. Im DONE.

I CANT WATCH A TEAM WITH A DELUSIONAL OWNER ANYMORE.. HE IS WORSE THAN AL DAVIS

“There’s no issue about faith in Romo sits to pee in any place in this organization, period. Any place. There’s no issue regarding Tony,” Jones said. “I had all the confidence in the world on the last drive that he gives us the best chance to go down and score a touchdown. Didn’t get it done, but we have a lot of faith in Romo sits to pee.”

"As Romo sits to pee goes We go"

Well guess what? Not me.

Redskins fans can complain all they want about 5-11 season or 6-10 season the past 6 years...

Well guess what having a mediocore team and not having 1 playoff win and boched snaps in Seattle and the chokes by Romo sits to pee vs philadelphia to get in the playoffs couple years ago.. Seattle.. Minnesota... IS 10 TIMES WORSE... gives us ****ty draft picks and rips your heart out.

I'm done I'm following the Redskins now... I can't take it anymore... Just out of spite to Jerry and Tony, its going to be so hard to quit on the team I have loved for 20 years but I just can't take it.... as much as I hate doing this...

I GIVE UP The Redskins FANS are 100% right YOU WIN I GIVE UP

I have already thrown out all of my cowboys gear.. 1000's of dollars worth of stuff after the press conferences last night...

I speak on behalf of most cowboys fans... but I'm willing to give in and give in to the redskins.

No thanks, I'd still like to be able to start threads. If you can't figure out why you were NNT'ed you really haven't tried very hard. Read the Rules. Your thread title alone is enough to lose the privelidge. :doh:

No Romo sits to pee is a train wreck and jerrry jones is delusional... and Jason Garrett is the biggest excuse for a coach...

I SWEAR TO GOD... I wanted mike shannahon so badly... I would take John Beck and Jim Zorn over those two.
