How about Joe Horn?

The Cowboys have made no secret of the fact that they're in the market for a playmaking WR to put opposite T.O. Joe Horn has made no secret of the fact that he wants the heck out of Atlanta.
Do we have a match or what?


If the Cowboys add Horn to the Valley Ranch Circus, they would probably have the most quotable receiver corps in NFL history. Horn could definitely help T.O. come up with a few more creative end zone dances, and he'd be pure gold on Hard Knocks.


Pretty much the only negative I can come up with is the strong possibility that Horn, a former Pro Bowler, is washed up (27 catches, 243 yards, 1 TD last season).

6 td's in 3 seasons does not equal playmaker. No match please turn over a different card

What a pointless move and wasted roster spot that would be.

I'm probably just another one of the many who would rather just keep what the team has and hope someone steps up. At least there is young talent that could develop on the team right now. I'd hate to lose any part of that no matter who only to take a chance on a guy who really can't be any better then what Dallas already has sitting at #3 or #4 on the depth chart without TG added to the mix.

Oh God no, Joe Horn is done. I'd rather have a gimpy Terry Glenn. We either trade for Chad Johnson, Roy Williams, Anquan Boldin, or we roll with the guys we have.

Clearly MacMahon thinks there won't be enough stories to cover this year. Interesting that he pushes the "quotable" and "end zone dances" and "Hard Knocks" angles over on the field production. When he finally gets to that he finally admits Horn is washed up. That is the bottom line for me not all that other stuff.

Is it just me or is Albert Breer the only real professional sports writer in the DFW area? I am so sick of Valley Ranch being referred to as a circus and Jerry Jones being portrayed as some hick owner who has just been lucky in life. They should all be forced to cover Barnum and Bailey and have to travel around writing about the freak shows and the colorful carney like workers. I don't really have a problem with them not being homer types like Spags, but I feel they should show some respect. It seems nearly every article screams of unprofessionalism.(is that a word?) Welcome to my rant...............peace ! :cool:

well if/when Terry Glenn goes down in Camp and the young WRs continue to drop passes I'm sure Jerry would think about making a move late August!!!

Unless he hits a fountain of youth or can turn the clock back 5 years, I'm not sure how this really helps

He's the guy we should have signed in FA instead of trading for Galloway.
