We Inch Closer To The Inevitable T.O. Collapse
Posted by kevin on November 11, 2008
As each day passes, I feel like we’re closer and closer to seeing Terrell Owens again laying on his front yard, doing crunches saying no comment. It’s a day I certainly am looking forward to, and if the Cowboys continue to struggle (and with Brad Johnson or Brooks Bollinger at the helm, they most certainly will) then this T.O. meltdown could happen sooner than expected.
The signs of this implosion have been long in coming. Even though the Cowboys started the year off hot, Owens wasn’t getting as many passes as he would like (all of them) and judging from his past, it would seem we’re nearing the end of his tenure with the Cowboys.
Then there was the Tony Romo injury, and things went from bad to worse. With an incompetent, should be retired has been throwing him the ball, the outlook was bleak. And when the Cowboys got Roy Williams from the Detroit Lions, the question wasn’t necessarily was it a fair trade, the question was how is T.O. going to react. That isn’t normally a good thing. And we know Williams is going to take catches away from Owens, that’s what happens when you have two good receivers on the field at the same time.
Now Owens is telling the coaches how to do their job, that is, to look back at 2007 and see how they got him the ball, and replicate that in 2008. Owens appears to be re-realizing that the world does in fact revolve around him. I would suggest getting your office pools going about when this train wreck happens. In the meantime, I’ll be getting my popcorn ready.
