Re: Did Mcnabb open the door for TO?

When your TE's and FB's almost TRIPLE the number of receiving TD's that the WR's have for the entire season, I would think its fair to say, even IF Terrell Owens is Dropping off (like SirClintonPortis says......) he would instantly give us credibility at the position, and force people to come out of stacking the box to guard him. Shit, Our backup tight end had more touchdowns than all of our receivers, COMBINED!!!!!! We need help in that area, no matter who thinks Devin Thomas will all of a sudden part the clouds, ride into Fed Ex field on a white horse and choirs singing.

Right now, as free agency goes, regrettably, TO is the best option for us. It HAS to be looked at, and Im sure it currently is and has been for a while.

I'm sure it has. It was reported somewhere that the Skins explored it and one person at the top was not interested. I'd love to know who that one person at the top was. Allen? Snyder? I for one have a hard time thinking it's Shanahan since he tried to pick him up while in Denver, but you never know.

I never said he was at the scrub level. But he's no longer the god-tier "anything-you-do-I'll-kick-your-ass" receiver he was prior to 2008.
