Bills O-Coordinator must have his work cut out next year, TO will throw a massive strop if he doesn't see the majority of passes his way
This is pure speculation, but knowing Owens' desire to be in the spotlight, is it at all possible that he chose an AFC East team because he wants the spotlight that will come with two games against the Pats - and Randy Moss?
Remember how he was in Dallas with all that 'I'm the original #81' and 'get your popcorn ready' when the Pats played the Cowboys? Of course, the fact that Owens' team lost by three touchdowns and two Pats receivers each had twice as many yards as him probably doesn't matter as much to Owens as the facetime he was able to get in front of all the cameras that week.
Even smaller corners were having alot of success jamming TO at the line(for example, Pitt's Ike Taylor, who's not terribly good playing press, still had alot of success doing so). The big reason why he had a monster game against SF last year was b/c Mike Singletary was *stupid* enough to play his corners 10 yards off.
Again-trust me-Hobbs and Springs will have no problems.
To steal your phrase...HUH? I can't stand the guy, but IMO, I think he's the next best receiver in the AFC East after Moss. It can be said that several others like Evans or Welker are better, but simply I disagree.
Hey, I respect your opinion, but I have to disagree. I was half listening to ESPN's thoughts on the trade and overheard that Owens was second in the league with dropped passes (I tried to google and came up empty). Don't know what context that was in, but he did drop 10 last year. Now he's going to Buffalo which is a whole lot worse conditions then Texas Stadium. In another post someone mentions how great he was in that Superbowl game. Time flies, that was five years ago. If you had to get a first down to make the playoffs, you would rather be throwing to Owens catching then Welker?
This is the last place I would have guessed TO would have ended up. When I heard it, I had to listen a few times before it sunk in. TO in Buffalo ? Why ?
What's the draw ? Trent Edwards ? Horrible climate, mediocre team that is pretty far away from doing anything. I mean why ? He very easily could have waited this out for a week, still got his price or more and went to any one of a number of teams that are better than the Bills with a better QB and situation. I'm shocked. Drew told us there were a number of teams interested, if that was the case, I'm surprised a shrewd guy like Drew didn't wait this out til next Saturday.
Owens, I love Welker but he is always open because Moss demands so much coverage.
yeah, I guess that's why he caught 70 balls from joey freaking harrington while starting only 2 games in '06.
lolz
Having seen what TO did to two teams with well-respected QB's and veteran HC's, I can't wait to see how he messes with the heads of Edwards/Lossman and an experienced but insecure **** Jauron.
This is a very good thing for the Patriots and shows that some franchises just don't get it when it comes to putting together winning combinations on the field and on the sidelines.
