T.O. Terrorizes Eagles

Terrell Owens is still managing to be a disruption to the Philadelphia Eagles franchise. Last Sunday T.O. destroyed the Eagles secondary in a Cowboys blowout over the sub-par Eagles. Philadelphia had a chance to redeem it’s season and turn .500 last week but they just couldn’t cover T.O. who had 10 catches for 174 yards and a TD and lost with a final of 38-17 Dallas. We all remember the ruckus that T.O. caused two years ago when he criticized McNabb and head coach Andy Reid. For all that he put the organization through, two years later the crowd didn’t seem to give T.O. all that much trouble. Perhaps it’s because Philly is playing poorly this year and the fans are less enthusiastic, or maybe it’s just because they’re sick of giving T.O. so much attention. Either way, Owens was taunting the crowd more than they were taunting him. After his touchdown he even brought out his old celebration, flapping his arms like a bird.
Owens wasn’t the only reason that the Eagles lost on Sunday, and he wasn’t even the largest factor in the game. Tony Romo had an impressive showing after signing a 6-year, $67.5 million contract extension, completing 20 of 25 for 324 yards with 3 TD’s and 1 interception. An interesting fact for the game is that Romo was the only quarterback that the Eagles have not sacked this season. It was clear that McNabb’s day was not going to be very good after he fumble the ball on the Eagle’s first play from scrimmage. Dallas recovered and eventually turned the turnover into a touchdown.
