Terrell Owens might end up a hall of famer

Looking at his stats after his outstanding game against the steelers and i'm baffled that at almost 37 he can still produce the way he is. he's on pace for over 1500 receiving yards if he keeps it up, and i think it won't take much of an effort to make 1000, which is outstanding for a player his age.

even without rings and considering his attraction to controversy the fact that he can still play ball is very impressive hate him or love him

Yup. Slam dunk HOF'er. And this is coming from a long time TO hater. It is hard to argue with the numbers and even given the locker room turmoil he seems to always cause, he is clean as a whistle when it comes to his personal life. That accidental overdose incident aside, of course.

He's probably a first ballot. The man is just an amazing football player. The only thing that held him back was him, creating some tension in the locker room and chemistry is extremely important on the football field. I will say this though, TO is a drama queen because he wants to win and wants the ball in his hands. I can respect that unlike Moss who is just a malcontent.

he was already one before the season started

One of the best WR to ever play the game.

One of the best, and one of my fav players. Most definitely a lock

They said it all. No doubt he's in. He's the ultimate competitor. I loved hearing that this year in the Bengals locker room he is actually helping keep the peace and keep the tension from boiling over. He's my all time favorite football player.

    • In my opinion Fitterer was probably right about not paying McCaffrey. Now not wanting to "pay RBs" in my opinion isn't something you want to set in stone, to me it all comes down to the individual.
    • Maybe I'm just not understanding, but everywhere that I have read says that signing bonuses go against the cap prorated by as much as five years. The following example uses Andrew Luck's rookie contract as an example. "Take Andrew Luck, the first overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. Luck signed a four-year contract with the Colts worth $22.1 million and included a $14.5 million signing bonus. Rather than a $14.5 million cap hit in 2012, the Colts spread out his signing bonus over the life of his contract. The hit against the cap would be $3.625 million per year over four years instead of a direct cap hit of $14.5 million directly in 2012. This gave the Colts more leverage and cap flexibility in signing other players." https://www.the33rdteam.com/nfl-signing-bonuses-explained/ I don't know why some of you think that signing bonuses aren't counted against the cap over the length of the contract, but whatever.   "The bonus with a signing is usually the most garish aspect of a rookie contract. Bonus is the immediate cash players receive when they ink a deal. It factors into the cap, but only for the whole contract duration, in terms of salary cap calculations. In the case of Bryce Young’s $24.6 million signing bonus, that’s prorated to approximately $6.15 million per season over a four-year deal. This format allows teams to handle the cap and provides rookies with some short-term fiscal stability, which is important given the high injury risk in this league." https://collegefootballnetwork.com/how-rookie-contracts-work-in-the-nfl/ I understand how signing bonuses can be a useful tool in order to manage the cap, and as one of the article suggests, signing bonuses may become important if you have a tight cap, but the bill is always going to come due. I'm not necessarily referring to you Tuka, but it seems to me that others simply don't want to understand that fact which is why they're reacting to what I'm saying negatively. How odd. In any event, I have a better general understanding of why signing bonuses are used now, and it's generally to fit salaries under the cap. Surely players, whether they be rookies or not, love a signing bonus because they get a good portion of their money up front. This in turn gives them more security and probably amounts to tax benefits as well. I also understand why teams would not want to use signing bonuses, particularly for players or draftees who have a higher probability of being gone before a contract even ends.
