Yup huge difference from owens.
Forget it.
Owens will get credit for everyone's TDs. He willed the other guys in.
He singlehandledly drove the team downfield, and without him, the team would never have gotten down there.
No way the ball could have or would have been distributed to others. We just would have frozen on our own 20, fiddling our thumbs.
Of course. A sensible fan who respects the contributions of every team member realizes that tho Owens has no high-light reel TDs this year, and less YAC then when he was in his prime, he has over 1000 receiving yards, just like TG does, and his role in moving the chains is not inconsequential..it was considerable.
But once again, that prop is never enough for the jock riders - it has to be about Owens, and not the team.
Same record as last year. Only three more passing tds, which I account more to Romo than anyone (TO demands the ball and needs to be fed, hence the TD looks the other don't get). The running TDs are naturally, an extension of Owens alone.
It's pitiful when one player has to be exaulted above the team, and the other team members accused of "snitching" with zero evidence, (TG) or of just being inadequate (Romo), or of being mere appendages of the SuperStar (Barber, et al). Both Barber and Owens had two TDs in Atlanta - but t'was Owens who "won the game".
It is interesting how some people look at the game of football, tho, simplistically and with Superstars in their eyes. No sense of what a team sport even is.
This thread should be the lead exhibit in the
TOol Zone.
pathetic.
