Nothing was average about him at all, the hands thing, another narrative as they say the same thing about Lamb and its UNTRUE,, dudes like 3rd all time and a gold jacket wearing member of the NFL..he was fast for his size, in the best shape ive seen any athlete in 24-7, dedicated to get healthy ie one of the first NFL players willing to sleep in hyperbolic chambers to heal, no Offield incidents ever, and caught most balls thrown his way.. right dont go get Jamar chase hes always in the top 5 in drops..he sux lol

on actually taking this request seriously, no not really hes older, hasn't payers in a long time so that's is now his weakness. we got Hilton and now have healthy and ready wr staff..
Wonder why an NFL HOF writer and NFL front office folks would lie?

From the article:
Cowboys ex Terrell Owens, a Pro Football Hall of Famer, wants to play in the NFL again and become the oldest player to do so.

Legendary Hall of Fame wide receiver Terrell Owens is eyeing a potential comeback at age 49 and has set his ambitions on playing for the Dallas Cowboys for the second time, according to NFL sources.

What are the odds Jerry would even give him a tryout..? Don't get me wrong, I don't think there's any way in hell, Jerry would actually sign him, but do you think he'd give him a tryout..?

I may not have a popular opinion, but I liked T.O. as a player when he was here. I can admit he was terrible for morale, & "the locker room", but he did produce. I'd even go so far as to say, he had a LOT to do with Romo breaking out. There haven't been too many WR's have a season like he did.

3 seasons (2008-10): 38 TD's, & 3587 yds
He instantly would be our fastest receiver..lol

Wasn’t he just bashing Dak a couple of weeks ago or so
Yeah, probably having to live at lower income status too but he's been fighting HOBO at Target parking lots.

He wants to coattail the Cowboys success

He is a HOF writer and selects HOF. He also spoke with NFL folks about TO poor route running.
Like I wrote....I hope he doesn't have a vote for HOF doesn't change. No problem because its a moot point. Wonder if he voted for Darren Woodson?

As for the narrative about poor route running.....still maintain its ludicrous, as that's never been the storyline about his career. May want to look at the numbers, including after Dallas which meant Buffalo (Ryan Fitzpatrick) and Cincy (Red Pistol). Can't find it except for the Pompei claim you provided. Pompei can kick rocks on that claim. Dan Pompei called Jay Cutler a great teammate, when it's documented stories about his leadership and drive. Hmmm!

The article shows stats about how pass attempts his way leads the league in interceptions over multiple years. I heard Parcells call it out and I seen several commentators mention in games late in his career. TO won with freak athletic ability and once that started to decline he was no longer the same player.. unlike Jerry Rice, who ran crisp routes and stayed effective until late in his career.

Signing TO was one of the worst decisions Jerry ever made and it set the team back several years.

Lot of writing that is saying nothing about your claim that he ran poor routes. Stop reaching. He is not coming to Dallas, but let's be real about that claim.

Absolutely. Destroyed team chemistry.
So is it route running or team chemistry.....now that the narrative has changed. Don't need Pompei to write about that.....Dan Fouts and Skip Bayless ran with the team chemistry part.

I never said it was anything to do with his talent. He’s in the HOF for that. It’s being a locker room cancer that I have problems with.
