Different side of view with Owens

[Tatortot]

There has been a lot of talk on many websites that a team that may take Owens could be the Broncos. I know many people think that Owens is a cancer, but he is also an incredibly talented cancer. I say we give him a 1 year contract at the most; and if he does anything like the past things he has done, we suspend him. This may keep Owens controlling himself as he already is close to not playing in the NFL anymore because of behavior.

[DrunkPanda]

if he signs with anyone, it will be one of the down in the gutter teams. why? because they will be willing to spend the most money to get him

[Broncos fo life]

We dont't/won't have the cap money to get him. Besides, why reward an asshat for being an asshat? He isn't going to change, barring some life threatening experience.

[Canadian_Fan]

Looks like he may be available this year after all.....the players union wants phily to cut him if the are not gonna reiinstate him........

If we don't have the cap space then why are the professional analysts even considering the Broncos as one of the front-runners?

Are you sure about the cap?

[Krugan]

Im sure with the type of contract he would be likely to recieve they could squeeze him in under the cap.

Naturally that will limit the ability to re-sign some of the players that will be due new contracts, you know those guys who actually played through what the agreed to play through, didnt pitch a "me need more" fit, who deserve a raise since the earned it by honoring their obligations.

Are you sure about the cap?

Yes.
Second worst cap situation next season.
Here is another good read.

If we were a team that needed a WR really bad, I'd say they could probably "fit him in". But considering we have 2 first round picks coming up and it doesn't look like Rod is done yet, that money is better spent elsewhere.

Key word is the Union wants the Eagles to do that, the players union wont be able to force the Eagles to do so especially since they will continue to pay him anyway.

[Elway]

He can hang out at Keyshawn's "Second half hangout house for the unwanted."

[Emancipator]

If Owens come here.

I'll root for him.

Every Team knows about T.O.'s mouth so the Eagles gets no love from me. They knew going in how he was and they should have had a better plan on controlling him. The Eagles were also wrong about the 100 TD thing too and they knew he would get mad over it and it worked.

I would take T.O. if I was Shanahan we run out of the 3 receiver set half the game anyway. Plus he would take pressure off of Rod and Ashley and make our offense un-stoppable.

He comes here I'll root for him too

At what cost? So they can raise the rates of every bodies season ticket another ten dollars per game per seat like they do every time they sigh a high dollar free agent. Now you may not have tickets so you may think big deal? But think again. Every time they raise the ticket prices the stadium gets quieter and quieter because they are out pricing their TRUE fan base. Every year more and more tickets get bought up by corporations and are given to people who really don't care who wins on any given week. I have season tickets and I can sadly say I have wittness this sad trend for the last 15 years or so.

Also this guy is so injury prone its sickening, so you already know you can’t count on him for a whole season. Heck last year he did not even help Philly in the play offs, he only played in the Super bowl. So no thank you, TO can rot in hell for all I care.

For most of his career he stayed healthy. However with age injuries have started taking there toll on him. I read somewhere that over the last three years he's been battling with injuries so its a trend that more than likely going continue.

So in short I wouldn't want him for because of his attitude and because he's become injury prone.

[Fat Joe]

I'll root for him.

As will I.

[OrangeShadow]

Look,any team that signs him is going to have some kind of cluase in the contract for behavior etc. theyd be foolish not to.
