Porn Valley- Without Terrell Owens, the Eagles are the most talked about 4-4 team in the NFL and Monday night’s game with the Cowboys will determine if there’s anything worth chatting about the remainder of the season. A loss will pretty much put Philly out of any kind of division championship picture, and their playoff hopes as well will be meager.
With a movie titled Slim Hope starring Fat Chance, Owens’ agent Drew Rosenhaus is making comments like, “We hope he [Owens] plays against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night.”
But consigned to the fact that he will no longer play with the Eagles, Owens has put up his Moorestown, N.J. home for sale. Look for a fire sale as well for The Birds Monday Night which has already lost to Dallas October 9, 33-10. Since acquiring Owens, the Eagles are 0-3 in the regular season when playing without him. Without Owens and his long arms, the Eagles suck on the ground and Dallas’ run defense has held its last four opponents to an average of 63.3 yards on the turf.
Then, again, Dallas is 2-9 in their last 11 meetings with The Birds and have lost 7-straight in Philly.
Here’s the game, baby: Denver at Oakland. The teams are meeting for their 90th time, and I’m sure there’ someone out their who can remember all 89 of the previous encounters. The Broncos are at the top of the AFC West, one game ahead of the Kansas City Chiefs and 1½ in front of the San Diego Chargers. Oakland trails Denver by three games and lost a chance at winning three straight last week by losing 27-23 against the Chiefs on Larry Johnson’s 1-yard touchdown run as time expired.
Denver’s running attack is second in the NFL with 1,366 yards, nearly double the Raiders’ season total. Another thing to bear in mind: Denver is 12-4 after a bye week, including 4-1 in the past five seasons.
With John Gray three games ahead of the pack, Gray could possibly lose his lead this week. There’s a difference of four games between Gray and runner-up Steve Seidman and if those games go Seidman’s way, look for a new kingpin at the end of Week 10
