Cowboys 35, 49ers 22
The good news: Terrell Owens put up.
The bad news: Now he'll never shut up.
With the smoke not yet cleared from his obnoxious -- but not even a little bit surprising -- interview with instigator Deion Sanders on NFL Network, T.O. produced his best day in a Cowboys' uniform. Finally getting open and actually making catches, Owens amassed 213 yards including a 75-yard touchdown that woke up a sleepy start against the tremendously sucky San Francisco 49ers.
As expected, the Cowboys whipped an inferior opponent. Do it again against the Seahawks on Turkey Day and they'll be 8-4 and peaking into December.
Right?
Tony Romo is back to buying time with his feet and making plays with his arm. The Cowboys actually got a positive special teams play (from someone named Carlos Polk). And, out of nowhere really, Owens is again a legit threat. (Sorry dude, but you were a tad mistaken.)On and off the field.
"We can't obtain that championship if I'm not involved in the offense," Owens told Sanders last week. "For me to have the numbers that I have and not really being involved, it is discouraging. It is frustrating, but what can I do?"
What can he do? For starters, zip it. And, like today, catch it.
Is it just me, or does watching T.O. be so happy make you wanna go take a shower? -- Richie Whitt
