TO - stretch run - why we got him

[LittleBoyBlue]

This is it.... the time of the year that we needed a playmaker like TO.

Everything is MORE now.

1. We need more from TO - catch the damn ball
2. We need to get him the ball - he needs to be a focal point not just a decoy
3. Jerry got him for this.. big game... big play

Dont let us down Bill... dont let us down TO... dont let us down Haley


Wake up soon or we will fall... HARD!

Dallas is not using him as a decoy if that were the case he would not have the catches he currently has. Your 1st suggestion I agree with don't drop the damn ball.

So I guess the majority feel like we are using TO to his strengths and all hail BP, Haly and Jerry in the decisions. If not for TO's drops all would be peachy.

Its gonna cost us.

What I don't understand is why we don't throw more slants to TO. He is big strong guy who is great getting YAC.

Instead we throw slants to TG.

I'd like to believe that they are sandbagging it and hope to back their way into the playoffs. Once in the playoffs they will unleash hell. I also believe in Santy Claus....

T.O. admitted that he had mental errors against the Saints and often ran wrong routes. He also looked like he was disenchanted with the game - moping on the sidelines instead of trying ot rile the troops and inspire them to get their heads in the game. I agree that the stretch run is what we got him for - for these 4 games in December. So far T.O. is 0 for 1 in these last 4 games and that's unacceptable. He should be paying less attention to his I-Love-Me parties and more attention to Parcells talks about what it takes to win a Championship. So far T.O. has not won any.

Sometime he is just in a daze just going through the motion at least according to one source which I believe was TO himself. It is hard to sit there talking about his involvement in the offense when he is making such statements. However we can just over look that and play it off as nothing and blame Parcells because sometimes TO is not motivated or happy. We have ourselves a 33 year old little boy on the team

Hey you're just a hater...
TO has nothing to do with TO's playmaking; it's everybody elses responsibility to make him a playmaker.

I'm more worried about the defense than anything else. He'll get his, but the defense needs to step up or we go nowhere in the playoffs.

I agree defense needs to get their act together after that poor outing last week. I feel they are much better than that and expect to see them prove it starting this weekend.

One thing about T.O. that really bothers me... I haven't seen him dive yet this year for a pass, I see great receivers such as Marvin Harrison, Tory Holt, etc. dive after balls. He's had some very catchable balls within range of catching if he only gave a bit more effort.

Don't hold your breath waiting on it

i was just looking at the stats on our receivers to doesn't like but 29 yards from having a 1000 yards and tg only lakes 175 yards to have a 1000 yards and jj needs 7 yards to reach a 1000 how long has it been since we had three 1000 yard players so yes it is time for to to step up also it's time for the rest to step up also the bad games are over

Those who read my posts can see that I put blame on TO. He does not get a pass with me.

In regards to your post. Sometimes a good explosive offense is a good defense. Its not that cut and dry.... but if if we are scoring then the opposing team isnt.

Yeah. Because that little boy doesn't grow alligator arms over the middle.

Owens has lost his stomach for contact, regardless of where it is.

That's why I think the coaching staff will not increase his role, but decrease it over the stretch.

Give Latuna the prise. owens arms seem to get shorter when he might get dirty.

Nice post.

"little boy" WOW

"lost his stomach for contact"... decreasing his role

You get POST OF THE YEAR for that one.

 

[koolaid]

i feel like we havn't thrown the ball to TO enough, seems like when its in his hands good things happen
the whole 'drops' thing is being blown way out of proportion

WOW is right. And make that "MY" little boy.

As opposed to "YOUR" alligator.

My head might be up TG's rump as much as yours is up Owens (well, close anyway, that's pretty high territory you're charting ).

But at least I know in the clutch, my boy won't be dropping balls and short-arming.

Well whereas I am talking about TO and how he can help us with more. You are just talking about TG and your head in his butt... complete homerism. Terry himself said TO is a beast when he has the ball w/ YAC/RAC. He has not been given enough of THOSE opps.

Meh.. No problem. Keep the Anti-TO stuff coming.
