The Midday "Munch" Box: Jets Looking At T.O.? Huh!?!?

ESPN - The New York Jets, who once traded for Brett Favre and signed LaDainian Tomlinson this offseason, now are exploring the idea of signing Terrell Owens, according to league sources. The Jets have contacted Owens' agent, Drew Rosenhaus, and have debated the idea of bringing the high-profile wide receiver to training camp.

The Jets looking into signing T.O.? Hold up, The New York Football Jets want to look into signing Terrell Owens and Darelle Revis still hasn't gotten a new contract? Um, I guess it's officially time for me to have a massive heart attack. In all seriousness, Revis and Owens have nothing to do with each other but in my mind Team Gang Green has got to get their priorities in order. Lets weigh this one out: An aging hall of fame wideout who has been a cancer to any team he has played for in the last 10 years, or a shut down, cover corner who has established himself as the best in the NFL at his position over the last two seasons. To go one step further, last season Revis put together a "hall of fame" esque resume of receivers he shut down over the course of 16 games. To name a few off the top of my head: Reggie Wayne, T.O. twice, Randy Moss twice, Andre Johnson, and Chad Ochocino. All these guys were at Revis' mercy, so the Jets brain trust needs to figure out a way to get the best player on this team happy again, or a playoff run is out of the question. No less talks of the Superbowl for sexy Rexy and the gang.

However, if you look at the characters on this team, it wouldn't seem like an impossible destination for the always controversial Owens. As it is, Rex Ryan leads this team with his cocky swagger but the bottom line is the team believes in him, and they play hard for him as a result. Newly acquired Santonio Holmes has seen problems over the last few years in Pittsburgh and already as a new Jet, after he was kicked off a plane a few months back for refusing to turn off his Ipod. Fucking moron. The Jets also have a new corner to play along side Revis and that is the playmaking specimen that is Antonio Cromartie. I wouldn't call him an angel by any stretch, I mean the dude has like five hundred kids related to him. 9 kids with 8 different women. That is either really impressive, or just really dumb. Maybe both? He clearly should have realized he had a super seed by say, kid 5 on woman 4. But, hey we don't always realize the big picture until we have like 4 more kids with 4 more woman, happens to the best of us I guess.

Bottom line is Mark Sanchez will already have two high profile, controversy ridden receivers to toss the pigskin to this season. Braylon Edwards has to remember how to hold onto the ball, because when he does he demonstrates immsense ability. Holmes needs to come back himself, and look like the unstoppable wideout that helped the Steelers hoist Lombardi immortality a few seasons back. Aka, I think the Jets finally have the offense to go along with the shutdown D. Jet football has fans pumped and the league buzzing heading into the 2010 season bro, and I can't say I hate it.

The Jets are on HBO's Hard Knocks on Aug 11th @ 10 P.M.
