Look for Owens to Behave

It seems like everyone is saying one of two things when discussing the Buffalo Bills acquisition of enigmatic receiver Terrell Owens: either he'll tear the team apart and it was a terrible move, or his negative influence will be softened because his deal is only for one year.

We don't think either of these theories will prove correct. We think Owens will go to Buffalo and explode on the football field and be relatively quiet off of it. Owens will be paired with a legitimate weapon across the field from him (Lee Evans) for the first time since Owens played with Jerry Rice.

Owens, and equally as importantly, Drew Rosenhaus, realizes the potential windfall of money T.O. can position himself for by being a good teammate on the field and T.O.'s run-of-the-mill production for one year.

After receiving $6.5 million for one year of play in the NFL's frontier, Buffalo, look for Terrell Eldorado Owens to come back to of the league's bigger markets next year (in which, interestingly enough for T.O., is widely expected to be an uncapped year).
