As a buffalo bills fan i am very happy to see Terrel Owens in buffalo. He is going to be a huge factor in the offense this upcoming year. being 2nd all time in receiving touchdowns and sixth in receptions T.O is arguably one of the greatest receivers ever to play the game. The only question is: How big of a distraction will Terrell Owens be? Though never getting in to any legaltrouble T.O is probably one of the most controversial players in sports history. In the first year in Dallas T .O was pretty quiet, he preformed at a high level and landed a huge deal. But off field distractions led to Terrell's release.
The bills signed him because they were desperate, they needed a play maker at wide out oppasite Lee Evans. They are taking a gamble though, T.O has split every locker room hes ever been in. Can he grow past his childsh ways and keep his mouth shut? Only time will tell. Terrell has produced huge numbers in his first year in new homes and that is good news for the bills whose offense has ranked in the bottom half of the league for the majority of the decade.
If this gamble the bills are taking works out, and the bills make the play offs Russ Brandon will look like a genius. But if T.O messes up then the bills organization will look like fools. Terrell Owens has his work cut out for him, if he shuts up and performs well, it would help him sign with a team next year or work out a deal with the bills. One thing for sure is that he wont be in buffalo very long. I learn two things from the T.O signing in buffalo, one is that there must not have been that much competition seeing as a player like T.O signing with a small market team like buffalo. Two, Terrel is just looking for a place to show teams that he could be a good boy and preform at a high level so that will increase his market for next season.
When T.O came to Dallas the focus went from the team to directly to him and that will definitely happen in buffalo. Terrell Owens also is known for putting pressure on quarterbacks to throw him the ball. It happened to Donavon it happened to Jeff Garcia it happened to Romo, whose to say it wont happen to Edwards? A young quarterback like him doesnt need the negative trash owens will say. Or Owens could help the young qb develope by getting open across the middle and help produce for the offense. Either way, buffalo get your popcorn ready cause this ones gonna be a good one!
