As a 49er fan I got to see Terrell Owens act up front and personal for 8 seasons. The last few of which were very painful.
But as much as I don’t like the man T.O., I must say the player, Terrell Owens, still has some gas in the tank, and could propel the Bills into the playoffs and beyond.
Owens pairing with Lee Evans gives the Bills a 1-2 tandem that now ranks amongst the best in the league. With a maturing and very accurate Trent Edwards throwing them the ball and Marshawn Lynch carrying the ball (pending weapons charges) the Bills will put one of the more potent offenses in the league on the field week in and week out. They may even approach the lofty levels of the Jim Kelley/Thurman Thomas/Andre Reed squads of the early 90’s.
The wild card in this whole scenario of course is the alter ego T.O. Can he keep his ego in check, and will he mature (finally) to become a team player. One would think that a player who is now on his fourth team would come to the conclusion that not EVERYBODY can be wrong, and only he is right. But then again, this is T.O. we’re talking about.
I expect that Terrell Owens will put up a very good season this year. Along the lines of 85 catches, 1,200 yards, and 12 TD’s. That will be enough to help Buffalo secure a wildcard spot in a very strong AFC. Beyond that will make people question whether the risk of signing T.O. was worth the payoff – probably an early round exit from the playoffs.
Best of luck Buffalo. We’ll see you in the headlines. No doubt.

I’m a Bills fan and couldn’t be happier with the new acquisition. My team has sucked for far too long, and Owens has the ability to change that. If you’re interested, check out my thoughts on the move:

This is truly one of the oddest signings ever. How does this primadonna fit in a small market blue collar city like Buffalo? I just don’t see this one working out, big surprise there. Honestly though, its really hard to picture him anywhere, only because who needs this drama. I can’ t imagine Bills fans are rejoicing here. With this addition, they still won’t be a playoff team and he is bound to cause problems.
Very weird signing, good thing for the Bills its only a one year deal. I can bet you a dollar the Bills find a way to snag a monday night game after this deal.
