TO, clearly the inferior receiver. Lets go get Rice instead.

We get it, you want TO. You always have.

Actually I wanted to see "statisically" what he really brings to the table... I was somewhat suprised... look at the first down...

HOW MUCH would those stats have helped us last year... I am being serious...

I dont want TO so much as I want a dominant #1 game changing PLAYMAKER Wide Receiver.

Yomick...Adriiiiaaannn I did it !

Are you by any chance from Philly ?

If so, do you listen to local sports talk or read the local papers ?

 

[demdcowboys#1]

Hey Jarv!

Gotcha, pretty good at photoshop too !

Really, comparing TO to Rice is blasphemy. Rice wasn't a cancer in the locker room and thinking of new touchdown celebrations.

Rice was the real deal with all the intangibles; TO is an athletic marvel with the mental ability of a gnat.

I need a drink.

 

[Tricked]

theres no question about TO's talent, he's without a doubt the best WR in the league, with his determination, running, and catching ability.. the best thing to do to TO is wrap an entire roll of duct tape around his head (excluding his eyes and his nose, focusing mainly on his mouth) and everyone would want him on their team

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

Umm really comparing Rice to T.O. is very accurate, he's a game changer and breaker. I hope he doesn't go across the middle against Roy Williams in practice though, we all know how that ended in 2004.

 

[CrazyCowboy]

Wow....very close......did not really expect that?

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

T.O. and Randy Moss are very close in production compared to Jerry Rice at this point in their careers, it's amazing how good they are!

please...no offense but stop making a fool of yourself

I hated Jerry Rice, but the guy is 10x the WR and team player Terrell Owens is, was or ever will be...you can compare numbers all you want, but Owens is not even close to being in Rice's league

And this update: He's also out of his freakin' mind... I mean, a total whack job who destroys the teams on which he plays...

Why do the TO supporters always leave out that part?? Either that, or they dismiss it with a breezy wave of the hand and a cheery "oh, Parcells can handle him"...

Well, Parcells couldn't handle Antonio Bryant, and he's a choir boy alongside of TO...
