“Misdirection” Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 IRVING, Texas -- Terrell Owens' frustration with the Dallas Cowboys offense carried over from the field to the locker room Sunday. Owens, despite having 18 passes thrown his way in the loss to Washington, had what was deemed a serious conversation about the offense with quarterback Tony Romo sits to pee after the game, according to multiple sources. The types of routes and throws are what concerns Owens, the sources said. The receiver, who the sources said was venting to Romo sits to pee about his frustrations, has not liked how some of the throws were coming from the quarterback as far back as the season opener. But Owens said Sunday he is still confident in Romo sits to pee. In the loss to the Redskins, Owens finished with seven catches for 71 yards and one touchdown. "There were some opportunities there, and there were some opportunities there where they were holding and the refs just didn't call it," Owens said after the game. "You can't blame the refs; we just didn't make the plays." Owens didn't talk to reporters Monday when he slipped into the locker room near lunch time. Owens is tied for 26th in the NFL this season with 17 receptions, and he's 15th with 264 receiving yards. He wants better numbers and is frustrated with his lack of touches, especially in the deep passing game, he has said. Defenses are covering Owens with a cornerback underneath and with a safety 15 to 20 yards away from the line of scrimmage to prevent the Cowboys from throwing deep to him. Owens likes to go deep. Three of his first eight receptions of the season were for 20 or more yards. But he hasn't caught a pass for more than 20 yards the last two games. "Man, like I said, the dude's a competitor," receiver Patrick Crayton said of Owens. "Any competitor in this league, a receiver, running back, quarterback -- whatever the situation is -- if you don't want the ball, what are you playing that position for?" Following Sunday's game, Owens said he didn't think he got the ball enough. Coach Wade Phillips said he's not concerned about Owens' comments regarding his role. "We have quite a few good players," Phillips said. "We didn't get the ball to Marion Barber. We didn't get the ball enough to Terrell last game. It's a good problem to have, but we need to be able to rectify it by controlling the ball more. Making more first downs, having longer drives -- those kinds of things to help everybody get the ball." ]http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/story/11001794 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Weirdo Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I never thought he'd act up again but could this be the beginning of the end for TO/Romo sits to pee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyKilmer Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Romo sits to pee knows he can not publicly bicker with TO Jerry would never stand for it. I am surprised this information saw the light of day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPortJGibbs89 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Tick Tock Tick Tock..... If Owens continues to not get as many passes as he wants this will only get worse. I think its still early and Romo sits to pee and Owens could get past this but we have been down this road with TO so many times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurrayH81 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Man, sure would be nice to see their next game be a loss as well. I don't think an Ohio team can beat them, but that would 'bout take the wheels of the Cowpukes bus, would it not. Talk about frustration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peregrine Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Too bad Wade Phillips isnt a real man and isnt willing to stand up to TO and tell him he needs to stop acting like a baby. Romo sits to pee as well frankly just lacks the backbone for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They say nothing and just let TO vent and let it roll off their back they look weak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWinzit Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 TO owned Tuna as well. His unhappiness could easily lead to a quicker then planned Wade exit from Dallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfitzo53 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I dunno how you can expect to be thrown to more than 18 times. I mean damn. That said, I dunno if this is really going to be an offensive meltdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebornempowered Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Now they just need to have him upset that he didn't get enough catches in a win and this thing will reach critical mass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdgenJen Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Way to go, TO. I mean, your quarterback already does "so well" in high pressure situations-you should definitely turn the pressure up even more and ***** to him about his passes not being good enough for you. Let's hope the real meltdown starts the first week of November, right before the Skins play them again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
