Cowboys release Owens, but don't expect him to land in Miami

PrintAccording to ESPN, the Cowboys have released Terrell Owens.
So why am I bringing this up on a Dolphins' site? Simple. Because there's obviously going to be some who think T.O. will land in Miami. But it's not going to happen - nor should it.
This team doesn't need a "cancer" like Owens to ruin team chemistry. And Bill Parcells isn't likely to show any interest in the big wide receiver.
But the media will probably try to connect Owens to the Dolphins. But Rotoworld has the right idea - listing the Dolphins as a team that needs receivers but will likely pass on Owens. And here are two main reasons why they will pass.
First of all, while the Dolphins need a true #1 receiver, we know this regime doesn't want "primadonnas" in their locker room. And is there a bigger primadonna in the NFL than Terrell Owens?
But more importantly, Bill Parcells and Terrell Owens do not get along. It was widely reported that Parcells was against the addition of Owens to Dallas to begin with. But owner Jerry Jones wanted T.O. - and he gets what he wants. However, Parcells wouldn't even refer to Owens by name - simply calling him "the player." And Owens wasn't too fond of Parcells, either. About Bill's refusal to call Owens by name, Owens simply said Bill was being his "old crotchety self." And when Bill left Dallas, Owens seemingly had nothing nice to say about Parcells, stating Bill was "like my grandmother." Owens added:
"Hopefully, the owner will hire a coach to take the team to the next level...A new coach can be good for the Cowboys. It’s not just me. But my teammates know I could have done more."
All things considered, I'd say it's safe to assume that a Bill Parcells/Terrell Owens reunion in Miami is highly unlikely.

I dont care much about him landing in Miami, what I dont want to see is freaking Owens joining Randy Moss and Tom Brady in NE and tear the freaking league apart. Damn it
OH MY GOD, YES!!!! THATS IT!!! T.O. TO THE PATS!!!!!!!
MauMontaV5 be serious. That would be perfect. It would be killer the first few weeks of the season, but then when the bye comes around. Holy crap, it will be the days of our lives over there. T.O. is a primadonna but Randy Moss is too. Can you imagine both of them on the sideline arguing with eith TOm Brady or Bill in the middle asking, “Why didn’t you just throw me the damn bal!” I would watch it every weekend and even record it for a pick me up whenever I am down.
He's a bug.......
he’s fast, has ability, but all he does is annoy you and get in your face to the point where you just wanna knock him out of the air.
Get out the bug lights Miami, keep this piece of crap away.
Once I heard he was cut……the first thing I thought was…….hmmmmmm should be about 17 post about this on the Phinsider. But anyone with half a brain knows, there is no way in hell that its even a possibility that he comes here. So, kill all post that suggest this is even possible, and save the space for better post.

hahaha Im not scared because of us but because of the league as a whole
We already saw what happened when the best receiver in the league ended up playing with the best qb on the league. Now I´d hate to see what would happen if you put a HOF qb on the field with 2 of the best WR of this generation. Basically what im saying is that I´d hate for the Pats to get another free bee like this.
actually........I'd LOVE IT
if T.O. went to the Patriots. Give them this disease, and hope it rots them from within

there arent enough footballs to go around between the two of them
won’t happen. Jets, however…….. thats another story. I could def see him going there.
Two more reasons the Trifecta won't sign him.
1. He’s getting old.
2. He’ll cost a fortune.
That’s a combination this FO just does not like.
Cincinatie´s FO must be fraking collapsing right now. They threw a huge contract to Lavernous Coles like 3 minutes before TO was released…
I thought about that
then remembered they can’t have a Ocho Cinco and a Terelle Ownens on the same team…
the seams of the universe would unfurl.

Smart move. Suddenly the Cowboys scare me to atleast win a playoff game. I hate them and hate to say this but I see them getting alot better and consistant without TO

not at all, Romo is going to truly suffer now that he wont have a legit #1 receiver
(Roy Williams is going to be in his first full year in their system and wont be as productive as a TO for Romo or a CJ for Palmer or a Plax for Eli) and now Jason Witten´s production is going to suffer and the running game too because opposing defenses will be able to stuff the box more. So without any leadership on that team whatsoever, they are going down believe me. Right now they are beginning to walk on the wrong side of a rebuilding process, players are leaving (Chris Canty), the Coaching Staff is awful and the leadership is nonexistent.
Roy Williams is going to step it up this year for them,
he can be a beast, and he will be getting many more touches
What starts here changes the world.
you know way to much about the Cowboys dude.......
Romo to me isn’t a proven commodity. And, T.O. was NEVER his number 1 target. I’m just kinda disturbed that you know so much about the Cowboy wants and needs…………..

I see Jason Witten replacing 10 faceshots a year
But not TD, but this team lacks focus and TO is another distraction
They need a better QB and a WR that can do 10 TD a year
Statiscally stupid yes, but for the long haul, the Cowboys will be better without him. How many more times will they lose playoff games with him on the team? (Not that they would have won without him)

But I added the very deserving hat tip
Hey Matty
Your original post is wrong. Rotoworld said that Miami is a receiver needy team that is likely to pass on Owens.
All you need to know...
Parcells wouldnt piss on him if he was on fire. Of all the NFL teams i would put the Phins as last in likelyhood to sign him. 0%
"Worst 2 First"...Your 2008 AFC East Champion Miami Dolphins
I'm just playing towards speculation here..
but since Owens is already getting paid 9 mil this year and Dallas is taking the hit for it, would he be expensive for a 2 or 3 year contract?
25th pick - C Alex Mack
44th pick - CB Sean Smith
56th pick - WR Derrick Williams
Creator of the "John Philips Bandwagon"
if by expensive you mean he will ruin ur franchise in 3 yrs max...
then yes.
2nd in WR TD alltime….still a force….and teams continue to cut him.

look at this post! you would think AT LEAST one person would be for signing him in here…but NO!! He has succesfully scared away everyone.
sad part is i LOVE watching him play…..i just hate him. its allot like when a hot girl opens her mouth and ruins it.

LOL I'll play devil's advocate...
Let’s sign him! Parcells is the only coach to have ever kept TO in line! I think TO is scared of The Tuna!

If TO went to the Pats
they would be deadly because Billichek can control his players. Even the primadonnas. Look what he did with Moss.
That's what I get nervous about
TO will most likely end up in, hold your breath…Zona if they can’t lock up Boldin
If they do, I can see him going to NE.
It will be the media desert of the year where he’s going that’s for sure

Moss just got what he wanted, all the deep targets. Once Witten started getting a lot of targets last season, Moss started to bitch!
Hmmm wonder if Oakland can pick up his paycheck

Guys, I've been thinking about ths and I disagree about the T.O. situation
I think the Dolphins should sign T.O. mainly because he fits exactly what we need on this team. Aside from a conerback and more depth that will come from the draft, what do we need that will take us to the Superbowl? I think its a big/fast reciever like T.O. Don’t give me any responses that Parcells doesn’t like him because Parcells is NOT the coach, Sparano is. I don’t think Parcells would stand in the way of bringing the guy in if we could win a Superbowl.
T.O. is far from perfect; he is annoying and has a weird sense of humor. However, whether or not he is a lockeroom “cancer” is at least debateable.
Bringing in T.O. to this team would take us up a notch for this season and puts us right up there with the top teams in the league. Right now I think we are a half notch below the very best teams. Other guys have been written off before; look at the Randy Moss situation which was worse because people thought that he could play anymore and that he had a bad attitude. No one thinks that T.O. can’t play.
Guys, I think we should lead the chant to bring this guy in so that we can get back to the show! Who’s joining me?!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh a stinky Jets troll.......
go get a playmaker huh? I just heard on the effin’ radio you guys are thinking the next big thing is Ratliff to Clowney (for those of u unware thats a QB and a WR….and they suck)
was it hard to sleep the night we came into your backyard….with ur ex qb….and took the division in dominant fashion?
The “most boring team in the NFL” came up with the play of the year…the most exciting play to hit the league in yrs….THE WILDCAT…..and gues who copied that excitement….THE SHITTY JETS. Not only that…but you guys ran it with a bunch of scrubs and embarrassed urselves.
when the eff are you Jets fans gonna realize you just cant be us? You just dont matter….every year your weak asses fold.
maybe this yr youll draft a playmaker….unlike last yr.

Exciting???
You call Chad Pennington lining up as a receiver exciting? Your main playmaker at the end was Bess…who is 5’6’’. Not sure that every year we fold against you though, but you did sneak one out at the end there good for you. The future is bright for y’all, just keep grinding it out against quality teams like Oakland and Seattle….just get a playmaker that’s all I’m sayin.
have Brett Farve as Yeremiah Bell if the Dolphins are freakin' exciting.
Do you call throwing endzone ints and lucky ass up for grab TD’s exciting.
It’s ok, resume to be butthurt. When Rex Ryan takes you now where, after another season of big money being spent that equates to the same thing as last year, don’t sob too hard, because I told you it was coming.
Who is your playmaker? Clemens? Ratliff? Lmao, c’mon, tell me.

Maybe not
But he is a slot receiver in the NFL. From the “Madbacker” to Leonhard, Jenkins, Revis, T. Jones well you get the point, the list goes on and on. But this isn’t about my team it’s about yours. I was just trying to give you some friendly advice and all you guys jump all over me. I was just saying get a playmaker please so I don’t fall asleep watching your boring ass games. Also please stop overpaying O-Lineman, it’s getting a little embarassing.
Riiiight, we need to take the Jets advice on 'overpaying" linemen?
If you are going to talk about Leonhard, Jenkins, Revis, and T.Jones being play makers.
Then we definately have more than you.
Your a fuckin’ retarted Jets fan beause you didn’t even know that Leon Washington was your biggest playmaker. Nothing is worse than a Jets fan than a Jets fan that doesn’t even know shit about his own team.
Your fuckin’ pathetic and should probably fall face first into a pile of glass.
If we bore you so much and you are a Jets fan, why are you even concerned about how we play?
Keep being a 2nd class team in your state and your division.
And if Ginn is going into his 3rd year in the NFL and hasn’t even played 5% of his plays in the slot, it would lead one to believe he isn’t a slot receiver. But logical thinking is too much for any Jets fan I get it.
Please, please, please, I beg of you, play in the highway……it will only make the world a better place

I want TO in Miami.
He is exactly what we need. Parcells isn’t the coach in case you guys forgot, he watches in that glass box on gamedays. Not exactly sure what he does during practice.
At least for a 2 year deal. That will buy us some time, save us a high draft pick wasting near the same amount of money that we would on the 1st round draft pick on the WR (not what I think we do or hope we do). We spend it go CB, LB, OL, CB, FB, RB, WR.
The next year we have the strong QB, who ever it is (rookie QB, Henne, traded guy, veteran) , with Ginn, TO, and our 1st round draft pick that year to replace TO for the upcoming season (Probably trade Camarillo for a early 3rd round at that point). That year we win the superbowl and the upcoming years as well.
I guess I should have thought twice before creating my profile's name.
LOL poor misguided fool
He is everything we Don’t NEED! You’re right, Parcells isn’t the coach. Do you think Sparano wants to deal with this head case? He is everything you don’t want for a rebuilding team that is trying to find their identity and ability. We have Pennington at QB as of now, we play the “short” game. How good of a blocker is T.O.? How long would it be before he’d start bitching about not getting the ball? My guess…..week 3. It ain’t gonna happen. And thank God! He’ll die on the vine in Raider wasteland and should never be considered for the HOF.

Come on Husker..
Maybe Sparano doesn’t want to deal with the guy, but maybe he does. how do any of us know what the relationship of T.O. and Sparano back in Dallas. What are you afraid of? Are you afraid he’s going to hurt someone’s feelings? I don’t give a damn about that. I’d like to see him on the field and I think he would be a great compliment to the offense for this season. I know that Parcells, Ireland, and Sparano are considering bringing him in and don’t be surprised if it happens. Like I said before I’d like to see them bring him in because he’s productive on the field and exactly the kind of player the offense needs. Let’s go!

No...
I don’t want a “quick fix” I want to go through the draft and build depth the same way as before. However, instead of keeping a guy like London, who has potential but he’s not taking us anywhere this season, we can add T.O. T.O. is coming off of a 10 td 1,000 yard season while you say that he’s on the “downside.” To me, it doesn’t change anything. I’d like us to add Seam Smith and Robiskie and maybe another one of those corners.
BTW I didn’t say that i had a source, I’m sure they are at least considering bringing him in and not sticking their head in an ostrich hole.

I didn't realize the coach made personnel decisions.
Here I was thinking that would be up to the GM and maybe his boss, the VP of Football Operations?
please
you can’t be serious?
now the coach may not have final say but he certainly has input even in the most monarchal sitiuations.
IIRC – Sparano made the long pick – reports said they had several that were close and Sparano strongly believed in JLo.

Of course he has sway,
but it was insinuated that it was strictly his call. There’s no way his pull is enough to make Parcells go “You know what, maybe was wrong about the player.”
what does it tell you...
..that NOBODY seems to want this guy on their team?

Just heard an interview with JJ on the NFL network
he said that TO is a “natural leader”, and that he would be the first reference for TO on his resume.
What has TO led? He basically called Garcia a fag in SF, had it out with McNabb, and accused Romo and Witten of plotting behind his back. He’s immature, insecure, and……inept (trying for another word that started with in). He has SOOOO much talent it’s unbelievable, but he is the definition of head case. And Jerry Jones is just nuts. The next Al Davis.
What starts here changes the world.
need to sign him
for two important reason
but let me say this first – i agree with everyone – he’s a nut – he’s a cancer – he’s devisive – but he’s been humbled by this….and when he’s humbled he’s ok for a season or so…
first reason – he maybe on his last legs and he’ll drop a few balls or 30, but he still needs to be accounted for by any defense. also he’s a physical presence and he’s a GREAT run blocker and that would be a serious improvement over any other receiver the phins have.
second – he hates weak armed QB’s and would be a great cheerleader for begining the transition to the future QB of the franchise. it’s pretty clear that penne will never lead a team to the superbowl (just too easy for good teams to defend against) and a new QB especially a young one – needs someone respected in his corner… and no doubt owens wouldn’t put up with the noodle arm for long without pressuring management for a strong armed QB who can open up the offense.
yup
i’d even take a team wrecker to get things right…
it’s all about the future and a long term one… we know Penne’s going to knife Henne once the table’s turned (or at least his history suggests it) so the new guy is going to need allies in the politics side of it.
by W NY Fins Fan on Mar 5, 2009 11:33 PM EST up reply actions
I'm pretty sure
Pennington knows this is his last year a starter, unless he’s wearing a ring. He’s a smart cookie. I’m going to hope that he is selfless and continues to mentor Henne without causing any drama in the locker room.
really
then why are they pushing for an extention?
