If Cowboys release Owens, will G-Men replace Burress with TO...

Tsoprano · 01-15-09, 02:53 AM

They need someone to replace him.

Deuce · 01-15-09, 02:56 AM

If it were Sydney Crosby or Matt Holiday they would still be on active roster.

InTheHole · 01-15-09, 03:09 AM

Sounds good to me!

Deuce · 01-15-09, 03:32 AM

His ego is far stronger to him than having a successful team.

rjt721 · 01-15-09, 04:39 AM

If the Cowboys cut TO, I'd bet money that Daniel Snyder and the 'Skins would pick him up.

The General · 01-15-09, 05:52 AM

I wouldn't. I'd rather chance a draft pick and young fresh talent.

One Eyed Bobby · 01-15-09, 08:09 AM

As an Eagles fan, I would enjoy nothing more than watching TO sabotage another NFC East team. If the Giants pick him up, I'll drive his U-Haul truck from Dallas to NYC.

Yeah, I'd put the Redskins in the running.

Owens won't go to a terrible team. At least the Redskins are in the mix for playoff contenders.

I don't know an established playoff team that would take Owens. Maybe New England would take him if Owens did what Moss did and sign a 1 year deal for the league minimum.

The Giants would never take Owens. Too much media scrutiny in NYC.

Boner_18 · 01-15-09, 08:12 AM

Caughlin will not have it.

Not as long as Coughlins coach. I promise you that.

TO is not a real effective receiver anymore

Burress is a game breaker and much tougher to defend

Manning needs burress so giants will do anything to get him back

daggerkobe · 01-15-09, 09:03 AM

Coughlin put up with Burress all these years.... I mean the guy has been fined dozens of
times..... so why not TO?

Jesse Black · 01-15-09, 09:04 AM

I don't think Johnny Mara would have him.

konck · 01-15-09, 11:30 AM

Plastic hole Burress is coming back next year. Besides Giants dont do well with whining throw me the ball guys we dumped that cok eater Shockey didnt we.

jjgold · 01-15-09, 11:58 AM

Owner of giants said yesterday Burress will be back

They need him

Chi_archie · 01-15-09, 12:04 PM

owner said Burress would be back if his personal issues didn't get in the way..... ie. if he wasn't in jail or facing jail....

pinnacle212 · 01-15-09, 12:17 PM

I get tired of guys putting T.O in the mix would Pac-Man, Burress and the other gun slingers of the league. The man has never been in jail. Romo was not winning tough games before T.O. Its just a scapegoat. Romo is a fraud. If ten people say that your a crackhead then your probably a crackhead.

The Giants kept talking that bull. We dont need Burress. We can win without him. Bull. Now that they didnt accomplish there goal. Oh yeah lets get Burress. Have some damn principle and stop having selective principle. Cut Burress.

jjgold · 01-15-09, 12:20 PM

Manning came out the other day after the loss saying he would love Burress to come back and play.

Burress made Manning, Eli is not stupid. The guy is impossible to defend.

Chi_archie · 01-15-09, 12:23 PM

Giants didn't win very much without Burress this year...

I WAS glad when they steelers let him move on.... even though I knew it would leave a void...

I don't think it is a coincidence that the Steelers have never had a real bad criminal or drama queen type on their team

Holmes had some issues this year, Plax had some right after he signed...Porter got shot in the ass... Harrison might have had somthign going on too but its usually small stuff that the steelers jump on to make an example out of trouble makers...they don't get in trouble again..

This is one of many little reasons that add up to, why the Steelers are a top 5 franchise in modern football...

ryanXL977 · 01-15-09, 12:32 PM

to is still a top 10 wideout
he is still awesome. romo sucks.

Deuce · 01-15-09, 12:35 PM

Manning is not a top 5 passer.

Brady
Peyton
Brees
Rivers
Roethlisberger

Chi_archie · 01-15-09, 12:43 PM

where do you put warner, Deuce?

AC1318 · 01-15-09, 02:05 PM

why would dallas cut owens ???

there is no one that can replace his talent.

moss fitzgerald marshall smith are not up for grabs and I do not include boldin as he is injured far too much but if you think there are not many other WR's that are in his class.

Does Dallas need an All Star team to win? Roy Williams is pretty good, and Crayton is an ok 2/3 reciever, and Witten is one of the best in the league.

Go to more of a running offense, and throw less.

The General · 01-15-09, 03:04 PM

As a TO fantasy owner this season, it was awful.

ryanXL977 · 01-15-09, 03:24 PM

maybe dallas should release him bc of the annoyance, but any of you who say he isnt still top 10, or better, are smoking good shit

He is top ten in pure talent, but talent alone isn't enough. His BS causes to many distraction within the team, resulting in less focus, and therefore less wins.

ryanXL977 · 01-15-09, 03:46 PM

that may or may not be, i dont know if he causes less wins

MoneyMike · 01-15-09, 04:12 PM

the cowboys fvcked themselves with the roy williams trade and now they might release T.O.?? what is up with jerry jones?

I feel like you are a big ROMO supporter earlier this year Ryan... you finally changed your mind?

ryanXL977 · 01-15-09, 05:00 PM

yep
he is still good but until he wins a game after turkey day, im not a huge believer. though i do think romo was hurt.

(a) Addition by subtraction. He's a distraction and a team cancer.
(b) He drops too many balls and is getting old, maybe not even good enough anymore.
(c) Trade bait?! Give him away for a 5th rounder that can become a 2nd rounder, like the Favre deal last summer.
(d) All of the above.

Honestly, Dallas probably keeps him around. Mainly because they don't save anything versus the salary cap by cutting him. Unless he starts fistfights in the locker room again, like he did in Philly, he probably sticks around.

Immortality · 01-15-09, 06:07 PM

Dallas should cut ties with TO. He is an absolute cancer to their locker room. The problem is Jerry Jones' ego seems to think chemistry is not important. He gets players to his team even though they are not a good fit. In fact, it would not surprise me that he is enjoying all this media hoopla going on right about the Cowboys. We are still talking about them even though there season has been done for weeks.
