Bledsoe kept Glenn happy to the tune of 62 grabs for 1136 yds and 7 tds. TO, Glenn, Witten, Bledsoe, and Julius are very solid skill core.
Maybe you guys will end up with Keyshawn... Actually, he might be a nice fit on the Broncos -- Lelie certainly isn't going to do much.
I was already getting kind of iffy about being a Cowboys fan. Don't like anything about Dallas after the Mavs beat the Rockets. Since I can't stand TO, I think I'll officially stop being a Cowboys fan.
If Aikman and Emmitt Smith were dead, they'd be rolling in their graves right now. The guy is a cancer that has played for two rivals...and on top of that you throw in the whole star incident. Everyone is going to be laughing at them in a year or two.
What if TO finally got i though? You saw what he could do for a team with aspirations like the Eagles. Dallas, has got Defense when healthy. A Great secondary with Newman, Williams, and Henry. A good DL Spears and Ellis with back up Canty. Slightly weak core but they got Demarcus Ware. All they need is some depth and OL help. In the 2nd half of the season, people were gettin to bledsoe at ease. Their Offense is fairly good and will only get better. Pieces are in place, but who knows with TO.
Either that...or the Cowboys and their fans will have the last laugh. I know most of you dread the thought of that. I'm not going to jump ship because we signed TO even if I don't like him. I'm sure I'll like him when he puts up some big numbers and advances us in they playoffs. I agree that I think he won't be a disruption this year due to last year. People are waiting on him to screw up again. I think he knows that and wants to prove he can put up numbers and not be disruptive to the team...as has been said. It will be hilarious, though, if we lose a lot of previous Cowboy fans over this. We've got too many fans, anyway.
Surf, the wife, Ryan H and I are heading up to Nac in a couple of hours for a bday party / crawfish thing. I'm sure the Cowboys fans there will be all over this. Too bad you would fit right in.
Cowboys have been having a good offseason. ayodele to fill in for dat, kosier for depth or to possibly replace larry allen, fabini to shore up the RT(finally), and a backup TE to replace Dan Campbell. I'm sure they'll get a kicker soon. Would prefer them to get a FS in fagency, but I don't think there's much left other than maybe Marcus Coleman. So the draft will probably bring in an OLB, due to the Burnett injury, and a FS. I'll take a TO upgrade over Keyshawn anyday, and I view them the same: nothing more than a short term mercenary.
TO basically apologizes over the star incident: "...the star...no disrespect...you know...did I have at that particular time. I was a competitor. I wanted to win. But, just as Emmitt did when I stood on that star, I'm going to embrace it from here on out." - TO I'm satisfied.
I pretty much agree with everything above. TO is my least favorite player, but winning has to come first. That is the business of the NFL. Apparently it is very contract laden contract (good behavior clauses, roster bonus after each week). Honestly it has to scare the hell of the Iggles, because they know the impact he has when he shows up and it motivated. Key is very similar except not as talented, and he worked out well for Dallas. Steve Young thinks high of TO, TO and Garcia and McNabb hate each other. Just have to see with Bledsoe, who freaken knows but it isn't a bad gamble IMO.
