Terrell Ownes finds a home

I am not shocked that  TO has landed in Cincy.  All the trouble cases land there. He has signed a one-year deal with the Bengals. One year deals is all TO is going to get in his last few years in the league. He decided that he was happy with one year deals when he spent the last 6 years being a jerk. Last year with the Bengals he wasn’t a locker room issue cause he wasn’t performing. His numbers are not all his fault. Buffalo had no offensive line and no quarterback. He will be better in Cincinnati. Write that down.

Owens has Chad Ochocinco on the other side of the ball now. He has Carson Palmer throwing him the rock. He finds himself on a team that is coming off of a playoff birth and a division championship. He still is in great shape and as long as he holds on to the ball he will be effective. All eyes will be on Ochocinco so you know TO will get some looks.

Of course that only holds true as long as he keeps his mouth shut and that’s the real trick of it isn’t it. Can he do that? When he has a great game in the 2nd or 3rd week will he be able to keep that ego in check like last year? In Buffalo that great game never came. Since it never came he didn’t have an opportunity to open his mouth.

It remains to be seen if TO, Ochocinco, and Carson Palmer can all get along. Palmer and TO did work out together and from all accounts it went great. Of course it did. It always goes well in the beginning with Owens and his quarterback, but come talk to me week six. Only time will tell I guess.

Get your popcorn ready, just hope it isn’t stale.
