Bills fan since 87 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 (edited) I think its cool. I know he only played one year here but in the middle of the drought it was a fun ride. I like to collect obscure Bills jerseys so you know I'll have my 81 on in the stadium monday night! Owens has had nothing but good things to say about his short time in Buffalo.

TheBrownBear Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Yeah, I liked TO as a Bill. Made an otherwise forgettable season somewhat watchable, and he was by all accounts a good soldier during his stint in Buffalo. 1 10 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPL Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 I think I have an unopened box of TO's cereal lying around somewhere. I'll have a bowl in anticipation... they should still be good after 12 years, right? 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny because I hated him at first, but his time with us really turned me around on him. A couple years ago he was on Howard and Jeremy gushing about Buffalo. Of course youd expect him to pander to the local station but the interview was very insightful and he seemed genuine. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transient Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 I wonder if he still has the key to the city so he can let himself in? 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills92 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Loved when TO came here... But similar to when Lynch was the Legend of the Game, I struggle with honoring players from the drought years - let alone a 'Legend' who played one year for a 6-10 team. There are only a handful of legends from the drought years.. and they start and end with Fitzy, FJax, Eric Wood, and Kyle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He earned his key to the city with that alone. Oh, and he caught the longest pass in Bills' history. 5 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBTG81 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 When Eric Wood broke his leg, TO stayed on the field with him and held his hand during the entire thing. I’ll never forget that and it shows you what kind of guy he really is. 8 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Caveman Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 I loved bringing back Marshawn but this seems a little like we're running out of legends. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 love it! TO was great when here. Wish we kept him around for one more year, could have retired a Bill . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_In_NH Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 These big games should be guys from the 90's teams IMO. Even a guy like Phil Hansen. I would argue we dont need a legend at every game if we are bringing back one year players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Caveman Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Are we gonna bring out Scott Chandler in January? Maybe Andy Levitre? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it’s someone who can do the full routine. Freddie cut it short last week. Missed the “where would you rather be than right here, right now??” line. I was hoping for Talley on Monday. TO is cool, though. It’s all good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
