Commanders Post at The Warpath - View Single Post - Owens out 7-8 weeks, will go into surgery on Wed

TO has had a stellar season, but it continues to be all about TO.

The Eagles were confident that his presence would open up the passing game for the other WRs on the roster. Through 14 games, non-Owens wideouts have a total of 60 catches - with one TD. They also have a reputation for softness (especially Pinkston - the last two games have killed his reputation) that will be difficult to overcome. I hope they can keep it together this week - we need them to beat the Rams for a miracle playoff berth - but it's going to be a Westbrook/Chad Lewis/L.J. Smith Christmas for them if they do.
