Official Terrell Owens Poll!!

[Reality]

Given the controversy caused by signing Terrell Owens, I felt it would be "interesting" to have everyone vote on their opinion of him now and then compare it again later in the season.

 

[ravidubey]

Yes, yes, yes. Great player, great addition.

 

[TheHustler]

Where's the Poll?

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

I am on board.

Only way I am not on board is if T.O. pushes me off.

 

[SteveOS]

Greatly help, no question. He keeps the safety back, no more 8 in the box for JJ!

 

[THUMPER]

Hey, I'm the lone dissenter so far! I do not believe it will be long before Owens shows his true colors once again as he has everywhere else he has been.

He might be a model teammate in 2006 but before the 2007 season is very far along the turd will start to stink.

 

[superpunk]

Isn't there a TO zone?

I keed, I keed.

 

[TonyS]

I think he will help the team, unless his groin injury somehow surfaces this year like it did in Philly.

Funny how I don't hear much talk about his groin that always seemed to be hurting him.

I didn't want TO and still will have a lot of strange feelings about seeing him with a star ... uke:

But I guess JJ and BP decided they could do something with him.
I'm a cowboy fan and since he is with the team I will just hope for the best...:

 

[Zippy Speedster]

He gets a 3rd chance from me. Great signing! Even better then I anticipated. Will be a great addition to our team once the playing starts.

 

[Hoov]

I voted yes.

TO is now the Holy Grail of the Dallas Cowboys

 

[baj1dallas]

He'll both help and hurt before all is said and done...hopefully if he starts causing trouble they just suspend him for the max (4 games?) and then cut him.

 

[Sportsbabe]

Reserving my judgement until Thanksgiving.

I feel the same way..... I could definitely live without him!

Not fair, that wasnt a choice

 

[1fisher]

I voted yes.

He'd better perform!!!!! All the pro TO'ers are saying SB......

 

[DBoys]

Umm shouldn't this be in the TO Zone? This should be immediatly deleted and Reality banned!

Joking..

 

[TheHustler]

Reserving my judgement until Thanksgiving.

That kind of ruins the point of the poll.....

 

[CoCo]

I have very mixed emotions about this. But I'll believe the best and vote pro-TO.

His signing is most definitely a big risk. But its a calculated one that I believe the org is set up to weather any resulting storm from - either cap wise or team chemistry wise.

Jerry has managed the cap to where we can afford to take the risk and recover quickly even if it doesn't pan out.

I think all key people (BP, Jerry, team leaders, TO himself) will be out to prove the naysayers wrong and keep it all on a very short leash.

Will our OL be stable enough to leverage TO? Will our QB'ing be strong enough to do the same for 3 years? Will TO at 32+ be physically capable of delivering game-breaking contribution for 3 years?

Those questions are probably greater in my mind than the cap hit & chemistry concerns.

This team is such an interesting mix of developing youth and aging stars.

I think for the next 12 months or next season, yes, probably a good acquisition with what he brings to the table (and his skills are considerable). In 2007, watch out, however. Could be Philadelphia redux.
