I do not always agree with what comes out of Terrell Owens mouth all the time, but this time he is right. He needs to be more involved in the offense and he needs to get more touches. If you would break down his career you would find out that the more times that he had chances to make plays his team usually won the game. Now many people may not agree with this, but it is true.
Let's digress for a little history lesson back some years ago. Dallas Cowboys coaching legend Tom Landry had a team with many stars on it, but he knew what he had to do. When he had guys like Drew Pearson, Tony Dorsett, Roger Staubach, Tony Hill, and others all wanting the ball he looked around and realized one thing. Who gives me the best chance to win the game and we put it in that guy's hands. Tony Dorsett was that man. Back when Dorsett played and he rushed for over 100 yards in the game the Cowboys were very tough to beat. This is why Tom Landry made sure he seen the ball as many times as possible. Sure other players had to sacrifice, but that is part of winning.
Back to reality now as Terrell Owens needs the ball more and in my opinion so does Roy Williams. We should be starting both of them and Patrick Crayton and everyone else can fill in when needed. They will get their opportunity when the time is right, but for now you must put the ball in the playmakers hands and that is Owens and Williams. If the Cowboys do that they will be heading to the playoffs. If they keep doing what they are now they will be home watching.
