T.O. Cut by the Cowboys

It turns out Dan Snyder didn't get 

the biggest name in free agency... yet.  

ESPN is reporting that wide receiver Terrell Owens has been cut by the Dallas Cowboys after three seasons.   T.O. has been blamed by many in the national media for Dallas's lack of chemistry, which barely missed the playoffs in tough NFC East.  It has been reported by ESPN that Ownes has been complaining about not getting as many touches and even indicated that tight end Jason Witten gets so many passes because he's good friends with QB Tony Romo.

Still, not all of Dallas's problems can be blamed on T.O.  When the team had a chance to clinch a playoff berth against the Eagles, the Cowboys ended up getting blown out 38-3.   It will be interesting to see how well Dallas can play without him.

If Dallas ends up moving on, they already have some pieces in place.  They gave up multiple picks last mid-season for 1 time Pro Bowler Roy Williams.  They already have Jason Witten and Patrick Crayton.   Look for Dallas to run the ball more with Marion Barber, Felix Jones, and Tashard Choice.

In the meantime, Dallas has certainly hurt T.O.'s options in free agency.  Teams like Seattle and Cincinatti could have wanted the six time pro bowler but have already spent big money on other free agent wide receivers (TJ Houshmenzadah and Laverneus Coles).  I doubt teams like the Eagles and 49ers, who have plenty of cap room and have big needs to fill the wide receiver position, will recruit Owens since they have already had the pleasure of dealing with his on and off the field.  It will be interesting to see whose Owen's potential suitors will be.
