Owens' Days as Bird Numbered? PHILADELPHIA-June 30, 2005 — With all the contract squabbles continuing, are the Eagles about to give T.O. the heave-ho?

There are reports a trade is in the works with the Oakland Raiders. Owens would go to Oakland for wide receiver Jerry Porter.

T.O. may be trade bait because he wants the Eagles to give him more money.

If he goes to Oakland, the Raiders would have two of the best wide receivers in the NFL: Terrell Owens, and Randy Moss.

Yesterday, Moss told reporters he could co-exist with T.O. as long as he got the number of passes he deserves.

Hmmm, as a defensive coordinator I would be scared of playing that offense. As a head coach I would start drinking again having those two on my team.

Kerry Collins would love having to listen to both of them bitch about not getting the ball enough after every possession.

Hmmm, he's likely to start drinking again too...

Raiders suck. They deserve Owens.

The two of them on the sidelines would be more entertaining than their play on the field.

Andy Reid is all business. He did it before with Duce Staley and Phila freaked out. But the Eagles got to the Super Bowl anyway.

He'd sooner flush T.O. like a wet fart than capitulate. Reid runs the show, not T.O. !

Alice Davis has clearly lost his mind.

Throw in Meshawn too.

When did Moss go to Oakland?

Moss played across from Chris Carter for years.
He knows his production will be better if he isn't double teamed all the time.

He still hasn't gotten over that SB loss to Chucky.

My hunch is that it was Chris Carter who made that work, not Randy. TO is not Chris Carter.

Who will catch McNab's inaccurate end over end passes in the dirt?

Oh, my gosh. I'm sure that in some circle of Hell there is a place where someone would have to listen to both of these guys grip and complain for every minute of every day about who should be getting the ball! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......

There, that's better.

Wow, imagine the locker room fights over who gets the ball more. WOW.

Also wondering how they would be able to manage T.O. AND Moss under the salary cap. They'd have to cut a couple big money guys I think.
