What team will TO sign with? *MERGED*

[DaBoys4Life]

You are kidding right? You will think the NFL is rigged if a proven trouble maker does not find a fourth team to play for?

Yes I will think the NFL is rigged if a HoF caliber player can't find a job coming of a 1000 yeards 10 TD season.

New England. Belicheat will sign him to match him with Moss, Welker, and Brady so they can actually finish 19-0. :laugh2:

 

[InmanRoshi]

Honestly, the media works wonder this isn't the first time I've under estimated what the media could influence but whatever. He won't end up in Oakland any team he goes to will have a winning record. I wouldn't be surprised to see him in San Diego TBH.

If he doesn't get picked up then I will think that the NFL is rigged which I think already so this will just be further proof especially if a guy like Joey Galloway gets a job before him.

All this bad stuff about TO is supposedly made up by the media, yet none of TO's former coaches who have spent time around him ... guys who should know what he's "really like" behind the scenes .... are interested. Including Jim Mora Jr, Brad Childress, Andy Reid and Tony Sporano ... who's respective teams might have to be ranked among worst WRs corps in the NFL last year.

According to what I just saw on ESPN News every team except New Orleans, Tennessee, and Oakland have said they're not interested

According to what I just saw on ESPN News every team except New Orleans, Tennessee, and Oakland have said they're not interested

Saints coach Sean Payton said Thursday that the team has no interest in free agent Terrell Owens.
The Saints don't have a need at wide receiver or the available cap space to sign him.

A team source told the Nashville Tennessean that the Titans will not pursue free agent Terrell Owens.
Owens is going to find a place to play, but his options are dwindling. He may have to sign with a bad team. The Raiders still haven't denied interest.

Uh oh. Looks like that list is dwindling by the minute.

Colts can easily draft a very good WR to go with Reggie Wayne. No need at all to take on TO.

Now I could see Peyton being able to handle TO in terms of telling him whose team it was, but they don't need him. Gonzalez is going to be their #2 and they will add another WR in the meantime.

I really don't see anywhere else besides the Skins (just to spite JJones) or the Raiders.

God, you're such an unbelievable ****ing moron.

Lighten up Francis.

Trent Dilfer said he noticed last year a decline in Owens' ability to stop and start quickly, get off the line, and to simply get open. Owen's straight-ahead speed was still good once he got a head of steam, but he had obviously lost some quickness.

I don't think Trent Dilfer deserves to die for that, and I hope he's around for awhile because I think he's ESPN's best analyst.

Trent Dilfer was either high or projecting what he saw in box scores to what took place on the field, because it's a load of crap. Every single physical component of his game improved in 2008 from where it was in 2007, and it's not even debatable. It was that clear cut to the naked eye.

According to whatever imbecile InmanRoshi claims to have listened to, T.O. has gone from first team all-pro in 2007 to NO BETTER THAN A 3RD RECEIVER ON A GOOD TEAM in 2008. So he goes from 2nd best receiver in pro football in 2007 (or at least, undoubtedly top 5)....to no better than a #3? And in a year where EVERYONE said he looked much faster? In a year when Wade Phillips and Ray Sherman both said he was getting out of his breaks quicker than ever after training in sand in the off-season?

Do you see the absurdity in that? He's lost SO MUCH FREAK'N QUICKNESS that he just falls off the face of the earth, but somehow he manages to get noticeably faster and coaches say he was also noticeably quicker coming out of his breaks this year.

Just think about that. It's absolutely laughable.

Whatever happened to "nobody denies what he can do on the field?"

"He's no longer a legitimate #1." "He's a #3 on a good team." "He can't run routes." "He can't catch the ball." "He can't get off the jam." "He can't get separation."

People are just spewing this idiotic propaganda left and right with no concern for whether or not it's factually accurate.

 

[InmanRoshi]

God, you're such an unbelievable ****ing moron.

Quite a compliment coming from someone who takes pathetic jock sniffing to such a degree he goes to other other team's fanboards specifically to spread his undying (and rather creepy) man love for one specific player.

So his former coaches are lining up to sign him? Oh wait ... they're not? He's so misunderstood .... nobody understands him like you do.

 

[Oldschool7]

Nobody and I mean *NOBODY* will want him.

Which means Al Davis will happily sign him.

 

[Real1st]

T.O. is done.

If he plays another year in the NFL i will be surprised.

Where do you get the idea that former coaches have the kind of power to just line up and sign him? Have you heard of General Managers? And don't you think ownership is concerned about the team's PR image with the fans?

The teams you listed have issues that make the signing unpractical. The Vikings already have a pair of good receivers (Berrian and Sidney Rice)...why add a 35 year old when you don't even have a starting QB?

The Eagles have Kevin Curtis and DeSean Jackson. That's an excellent pair of receivers. Oh yeah, and a quarterback who feuded with said 35 year old receiver. Andy Reid likes T.O. and probably wouldn't mind coaching him under the right circumstances.

Who says Jim Mora Jr/the Seahawks aren't interested? Mora Jr and Knapp were sure interested back in 2004 when they joined Atlanta and Owens was scheduled to be a FA. They'd seen him behind the scenes...and they were interested in signing him should he have been available.

Tony Sparano heaped praise on T.O. not that long ago, didn't he? But Owens isn't a "Bill Parcells guy," though Parcells was complimentary of him even when he no longer needed to be.

The problem is that owners and General Managers don't live in a vacuum and most reach conclusions about him based on what they hear from the mass media just like everyone else. The guys who end up signing him are always the ones who actually went out and talked to people who'd been with him before.

Nobody wants to sign him because he is an headcase.

Name a team that you think will sign him

.

Yeah the eagles are a logical choice because Andy Reid likes him .

Who says Jim Mora Jr/the Seahawks aren't interested? Mora Jr and Knapp were sure interested back in 2004 when they joined Atlanta and Owens was scheduled to be a FA. They'd seen him behind the scenes...and they were interested in signing him should he have been available.

We will see if that happens.

Tony Sparano heaped praise on T.O. not that long ago, didn't he? But Owens isn't a "Bill Parcells guy," though Parcells was complimentary of him even when he no longer needed to be.

Because nobody wants to start a media controversy with this guy.

Yeah that sure worked for Jerry.

Blanket statement...hardly anyone has any experience with him at all nor do they care to chance it.

Nobody will sign him. His career's over. I mentioned that. Perception becomes reality. Owens sits around on his cell phone texting people like a zombie. That's the real T.O. But it's irrelevant because people think he's some sort of big, bad, loud wolf who tears through the locker room. Every single player will disagree with that, but it doesn't matter; you'll just choose to spin it as "but they don't want to start a media controversy!"

Reading comprehension. The Eagles won't sign him because of McNabb and the front office. Andy Reid has nothing to do with it. Reid was the only reason Owens lasted in Philly as long as he did. He always liked Owens.

Parcells could say whatever he wants and it wouldn't become a "media controversy" because nobody cares...he's not his coach anymore. They're not in the same organization. But he tells people off the record "he's not a mean-spirited kid, and he produced for me."

And it worked fine for Jerry. The Cowboys were back on the map in large part because of this "risk" paying off. Eventually he began to question himself on this, for some reason. We can only speculate...but Jerry remains complimentary of T.O. and insists the move had absolutely nothing to do with any of the "antics." He's said he'd vouch for him if teams inquired about him. He doesn't really have to go do that extent.

Yeah but he got cut for no reason.

Too bad the face of that franchise doesn't like him.

Parcells can say whatever he wants. How do you know what the hell he says off record?? Did you have some drinks with good ole' Bill?

So he got cut for no reason right?

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

Haha thats funny.

No team wants TO.

Sounds familiar. Sounds like Cowboys would never sign TO.



TO will have 2-3 good teams to choose from.
I would actually like to see him in Indy.

This is the final straw for T.O.

cut by Jerry Jones?? Out of all GMs Jerry?? Jerry usually can tolerate the huge characters. The league will know if not even Jerry can handle it why take a chance with this guy??

You were the same guy who was saying there was no chance of T.O. being cut.

Now look at you. Fool.
