Can Owens and Parcells coexist?

The main question regarding the Dallas Cowboys is whether coach Bill Parcells and star wide receiver Terrell Owens work together? Both have huge egos, both are temperamental. Its like a train wreck waiting to happen. However one thing they can both agree on are that they are both winners. Parcells have won two Super Bowl Championships with the New York Giants. Owens is arguably the best wide receiver in the league today.

If Parcells can utilize Owens to the maximum, the Cowboys could possibly reach the playoffs. Parcells has a history of getting the best of controversial players like Lawrence Taylor during his coaching stint with the Giants. Owens also has an agenda this season. His time in Philadelphia ended acrimoniously and he was portrayed justifiably as selfish egomaniac. Owens needs to step up this season and show his loyal fans that he still can carry a team.


The saying “actions speak louder than words” does not all ways hold true with Owens. He is a master showman. He puts people in arenas and he is the franchise of the Cowboys. However he has a lot of baggage and this season if he plays for Parcells with less controversy, he may be able to repair his tarnished star. The success of the Cowboys will be dictated to by this coach- player relationship. One thing that I can say its going to be one helluva of a season. Stay tuned.
Mission impossible?
Can Parcells work his magic on Owens?

I can't see more than a season or, at best, two coming out of this union before somebody goes. Glad I stumbled upon this, BTW. It's had to get an NFL fix this time of year!
