As a person, Terrell Owens had lot of flaws ,but just as a player , he had a good work ethic and prepared his body to recover quickly from injuries and played full effort. Of course like all Diva WRs he was always open and cant have enough balls thrown his way.
Other than the drops, there was nothing wrong with his game. He is an all time top 5 WR in the NFL, imo.

I had him on my fantasy team when he had 22 catches in one game and damned near won the week for me single handedly. He was as much a force as any WR that ever played the game.

Moss and TO had nearly identical stats that game. TO had 6 catches for 66 yds and a TD. Moss had 6 catches for 59 yds and a TD. Don't think TO was the reason Dallas lost that game. Wes Welker and Stallworth killed us.

The 21st century Cowboys defense crapped the bed in a big game, again. Visiting team came in and put up 48 points.

Agreed. I don't care if players chirp a little just back it up. Jimmy guaranteed a win versus the 49ers and I loved it. Jimmy promptly thanked the players in the lockeroom afterwards for backing his mouth up.

More guts, attitude, and nasty is required for a championship.

Guts, attitude, and defense. Jimmy's Cowboys held those explosive Niners to 20 points in their own house.

Seriously? A bracelet? I just hope this doesn't backfire on him and make him a target for the opposing teams.
I just hope it doesn't become a thing, I am still behind on tats, piercings and backwards hats. I do have my wife's old charm bracelet that I could wear in a pinch. It's understated and can go with a casual outfit but if I go all black, gotta be pearls.

Do Cowboys fans remember this quote fondly? It was made by one of the lesser liked stars of the team right before a game you got blown out in. Seems like an odd mantra to channel
......he was never a star. Great receiver.

From the article:

As good as Lamb's 2020 season was, it could have been better if not for Prescott's compound fracture and dislocation of his right ankle in Week 5. In 19 quarters together, they combined for 412 yards on 27 catches and two touchdowns. Projected over a full season, Lamb would have had 86 receptions for 1,318 yards and six touchdowns.
So you are saying Andy Dalton sucks??:muttley::thumbup:

Lamb needs to stay quiet, do his job. Not become a Jaylon & Dlaw mouthy, look what I can do MEDIA attention disorders.


While I'm generally of that opinion, if he can walk the same walk as he talks and backs it up (unlike Jaylon, Dlaw, and others), then let him talk some... but prove it.

Not a fan of the quote, but I think Eagles fans commenting about Lamb are just a tiny bit bitter they didn't get to draft him. ;)

so already the kid is infected by the culture? Look at us, we are special....on the way to another
8-8 season....man, I can’t imagine what real championship teams and players, who do their talking on the field with results, think when they hear this Cowboy garbage every year. the kid is going to be great, no doubt, I feel bad his career won’t include any rings if he stays here...lots of popcorn and bright lights though !

Dear Lamb, catch the popcorn. You dropped too much of it in your lap last season.

Leading the team in drops with the most drops doesn't deserve talk.

Like to have seen them show one of those end zone drops and said "you saw it" and smiled and waited for a response.

You have one job, catch the ball, that's it, one job. Do that and then talk.

Yup that was my main knock on him as a rookie, he had way too many drops.

It's not my favorite quote but I like it better than, "what do voluntary mean?". I like to make fun of Hambrick and that quote but not a fan of it. I'm also not a fan of "get your popcorn ready" cuz of the results of the game.

I do like Lamb getting an edge and confidence about him. Lamb and Dak for a whole year with a healthy offensive line is scary for the league. I'm liking that action. They're going to be scary good.

Oops, here I go again, being optimistic and positive. I'm ready for the naysayers to pound me with negativity and pessimism. It won't work, Lamb and Dak is going to destroy the league.

Go Cowboys!!!!!!!!

I worry more about guys who were available when we picked than guys we didn’t have a shot at without giving up assets.

For instance, we chose JJ Arcega Whiteside over DK Metcalf, and I was the biggest DKM proponent on the Eagles board. We’re probably cutting JJAW next offseason, he’s like 5th or 6th on the depth chart….
