Lots of pouting and screaming on the sidelines. But didn't see much action from him on the field.

Even Aikman had enough class to remark about his act getting tired.
He won't be able to keep his mouth shut for long.
Parcells should sit him, then cut his a$$ ASAP.
Watching his downfall is quite entertaining.
Somebody lock the medicine cabinet.

Great sign in the background of the FOX pregame set: "Donny Mac Says Who's Puking Now?"
no answer, but then again what was the question?
You all are lucky that Drew showed up for this one.

The question.
How many wins for the Bucs this year?
Next question.
Who is the NFL leading QB this year?
Next question.
Who threw for 354 yards despite being pressured heavily throughout the game?
Now, sit down.
WTF game were you watching? Wasn't the Eagles - Cowboys game on Sunday. TO wasn't getting separation at all even with single coverage. Yes he would get some separation in the slot but all receivers break open in the slot for a brief time. And players often "look open" after a short ball interception because the D back stops pursuing the player and goes for the ball. On that one interception, TO kept running forward when he should have stopped the route, and tried to breakup the interception or tackle the D back.
Turd O. played in classic Me O. fashion. Make no plays that may cause injury. Make no play on potential INTs. Then blame it all on the QB.
"Deion has said some foolish things over the years -- in fact, he set the all-time NFL record for dumb pregame-show statements at CBS -- but blaming Bledsoe for not trying to get the ball to Owens is a classic. Let's analyze Bledsoe's day, and let's count, according to the official NFL play-by-play, how many balls were thrown to Owens and the other stud receiver, Terry Glenn -- who, by the way, led the NFL in average yards per catch last year and is Bledsoe's favorite receiver ever.
Total pass plays: 49. (Bledsoe threw 37 passes to receivers, had one intentional-grounding for his 38th attempt, was sacked seven times and scrambled four times when flushed out of the pocket. Another rushing attempt was a quarterback sneak for a first down.)
Now let's see how those 37 throws were distributed.
Owens: 13. Glenn: 8. Jason Witten: 5. Marion Barber: 4. Patrick Crayton: 3. Julius Jones: 2. Anthony Fasano: 1. Lousaka Polite: 1"
