PFT: Rosenhaus Says “Several Teams” Are Interested In Owens

[dbair1967]

If TO goes to the Colts, Jerry is going to be banging his head against the wall, watching TO put up among the best number of his career. One of the bone-headed moves of Jerry Jones in his history as the Cowboys owner.

Denver? You mean the team with Marshall and Royal already starting and doing a great job? Doubtful.

Washington...Yes that is one of the two that I think might have serious interest.

San Fran? With Mike there as HC? Are you kidding me? No way. TO wouldn't last 3 minutes in Mike's locker room before he was in trouble.

Oakland...This is honestly the place I think he'll wind up for a couple of reasons. 1 they need the help and he'll be the undisputed #1 target there. 2 they'll be the team most willing to throw the money at him.




I doubt, very seriously, that the Colts will even take a look at him. I can't see that team putting Manning through having to deal with TO when the Colts offense is just fine without him.

Marshall might be missing some time soon. We got arrested again a week or so ago.

Ahhh yes, I forgot about that. Yeah he'll be missing again...for 2 games instead of 1 this time.

Are you kidding me? The Colts offense may be fine without him, it would be freaking ridiculous with him. And while you may thing they are fine, they just lost Harrison and they were having issues last year offensively. TO isn't getting a big contract, but playing with Manning on a team that actually uses plenty of motion, play-action and quick slants. Manning would have no problems dealing with TO.

brand new head coach. no way

 

[juck]

Colts

 

[khiladi]

You mean San Francisco is leaving open the possibility that they might take a look at TO. You mean the very guy people say destroyed the team and left them in the dust. The irony of it all.... What do the TO hater's have to say about this 'drama'...

 

[Chocolate Lab]

A precise guy like Manning could never deal with TO's shoddy route running and freelancing. No way.

 

[khiladi]

brand new head coach. no way

Same offensive coach. Plus, Peyton Manning calls the offensive plays so nothing has changed. I think he is gonna end up with the Colts and, it'll be over in the West. TO wants to win and that was his complaint. Garrett the 'genius' didn't use him correctly. He isn't going to sign with some team that has no chance, like the Raiders.

NEXT QUESTION. I think TENN would benefit from him though. Fisher would tell him to shut the #(@$&*#*0 real quick if he started yappin.

Yeah they'd get along just fine. For about 3 minutes. Until TO started running his yap and Manning told him to shut the hell up cause Indy is HIS TEAM and HIS HUDDLE.

I like TO as much as anyone. I think he's a great player and I enjoyed watching him here. But to think that every team out there who might want another reciever is going to be looking at him isn't realistic, IMO.

As for their offense struggling they did more then well enough to help them win, what, 10 or 11 games? I think at one point they won like 8 straight games. They haven't had a healthy, or productive, Marvin Harrison for 2 seasons now and they've still made the playoffs both times.

TO won't be a Colt.

Most of what was there when he was is pretty much gone now. Player and coaching wise. i don't know about the front office stuff.

so what, that offensive coach now has to worry about the whole team. No way TO goes to the Colts.

 

[SA_Gunslinger]

i'm sure he will find a job, but D.R. said this b-s 3 years ago and "several teams" turned out to be TWO teams, and only ONE of them (us) was willing to give him the salary he desired.

so, i'm not buying it.

TO free-lanced about as much as Tony Romo free-lanced. It happens when your plays breakdown because your OC is inept. It's called buying time i our crappy ghetto offense of Garrett's.

Only way Jerry regrets it is if he goes and gets a championship, which aint happenin. The bone-headed move was signing him in the first place.

It's about championships and we didn't get one with him. Period. If he thought his presence would bring it now he would still be here guaranteed.

A wise old cowboy once told me, the only way to constantly look backwards is to be peering out of your backside.

Sorry... Your whole assumption is rooted in the fact that Peyton Manning won't be getting TO the ball. They don't have a garbage OC like we do. Further, while Tony Romo is good, he is not even close to the level of Peyton Manning. TO won't be complaining because they will be getting him the ball and they will be using him in motion, and they will be having him run short and quick slants.

Like I said, TO doens't complain in 3 minutes. He complains when the team is losing.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

I'm still curious why everyone, myself included at various times, thinks TO is actually someone who helps teams win championships?

Where did anyone get this idea? The guy has never won a single championship so I don't get this idea that he's actually some big, huge, help to winning championships.

Everytime he leaves, and goes somewhere else, you hear how the previous team will regret it cause he's going to help his new team win championships.

Well he's had 3 stops now and 3 times he's yet to help those teams win a championship.

Were you calling him inept in O7 when your boy was putting up BIG numbers?
I think he tried too hard to get ONE player the ball.

I'm sooooooo glad he's gone!!!!

Good point...been said numerous times... but it's still a good point.
