He was held out of practice during the week, and the team said he had a strained hip. 'Earlier in the week it was painful, but I knew I would be ready,' Owens said. 'My couch is very comfortable, so it's easy to fall asleep on. (But) I don't know if it was the couch.'

Bills | Owens unlikely to be dealt Tue Oct 20, 11:33 AM
John Clayton, of ESPN.com, reports Buffalo Bills WR Terrell Owens is unlikely to be dealt prior to the trade deadline. To acquire Owens, a team must accept the potential problems he might cause for the quarterback and the locker room.
| Our view: Not only would Owens be a potential headache for his new team and his new quarterback, he'd have to learn a new offense overnight. That fact further minimizes his trade value. |

Ravens | Have shown interest in Owens Tue Oct 20, 10:32 AM
Jay Glazer, of FOXSports.com, reports the Baltimore Ravens have talked with the Buffalo Bills about the possibility of trading for WR Terrell Owens.
| Our view: The Ravens have been rumored to be interested in several big wide receivers this year. Before the season players like Braylon Edwards, Brandon Marshall, and Anquan Boldin seemed to be on their radar. With the trade deadline approaching they now are looking at Terrell Owens. The Bills have reportedly rebuffed the inquiry and remain adamant that they have no interest in trading Owens. |

Bills | Sheppard believes team should use Owens more Thu Oct 15, 12:26 PM
Mark Gaughan, of The Buffalo News, reports New York Jets CB Lito Sheppard said he believes the Buffalo Bills should focus their offense more toward WR Terrell Owens. 'They've got to do a good job of designing plays for him. You've got to be creative and let him do what he does best --- and that's run after the catch. If you can't be creative and learn how to get him the ball in open space, he's not going to be effective for them,' Sheppard said.
| Our view: Sheppard with an amazing grasp of the obvious here. Of course the Bills need to get Owens more involved! This all comes down to quarterback Trent Edwards, and if he's willing to go down the field and challenge the edges of a defense rather than check down to safe/underneath passes. |

Bills | Owens in midst of worst stretch of his career Mon Oct 5, 12:02 AM
Mark Gaughan, of The Buffalo News, reports Buffalo Bills WR Terrell Owens has caught eight passes through the team's first four games, the worst four-game stretch of his career as a starter in the NFL. At no point in his 14-year career has Owens started four straight games and caught fewer than 10 passes.
| Our view: At this point, the best his owners can hope for is Ryan Fitzpatrick getting in, because Trent Edwards has not been able to unlock the potential that having Owens and Lee Evans offers in the passing offense. |

Bills | Owens catches three passes Week 4 Sun Oct 4, 09:02 PM
The Associated Press reports Buffalo Bills WR Terrell Owens was thrown to seven times Week 4, and he was able to finish with three receptions for 60 yards.
| Our view: Owens was also targeted on at least one of the three Trent Edwards interceptions. Sadly, even when the Bills had to play catch up and open up the passing offense, Owens still had only middling numbers. |

Terrell Owens to be defended by Will Allen Fri Oct 2, 03:58 PM
Will Allen, the Dolphins' best cover corner, will be match up primarily against Terrell Owens this week.
| Our view: Owens is already struggling with his hands and to develop chemistry with Trent Edwards. Will Allen has quietly been one of the better cover corners in the league over the past two seasons and will put even more pressure on Owens to overcome his early season woes. |

Bills | Owens wants to be more involved in offense Tue Sep 29, 10:35 AM
ESPN.com reports Buffalo Bills WR Terrell Owens said during a radio interview that the team's offense must do a better job of incorporating himself and WR Lee Evans. 'I know I can play this game at a high level,' Owens said. 'We've just got to find some ways to get myself and Lee more involved in the offense. Our run game is right where it needs to be. We just got to complement our run game with the pass game.'
| Our view: The Bills definitely need to involve Owens more, and find different ways to get him the football. Because the Bills ground game is solid, the spots are there for Trent Edwards to throw to. He needs to trust his receivers more, and start throwing into tighter windows to allow his receivers to make a play. |

Bills | Owens held without a catch Week 3 Mon Sep 28, 02:12 AM
The Associated Press reports Buffalo Bills WR Terrell Owens did not record a catch during the team's Week 3 game. It was the first time since his rookie season in 1996 that Owens failed to record a reception in a game. He had caught a pass in 185 straight games, the third-longest streak in NFL history.
| Our view: Owens was melancholy after the game. As reporters asked him if he was being underused, Owens responded "We're only running the plays that are called." Clearly the honeymoon is over in Buffalo, and we could see shades of the bad T.O. very soon. |

Bills | Owens calls out Edwards Fri Sep 18, 12:29 AM
Mark Gaughan, of the Buffalo News, reports that Bills WR Terrell Owens said of QB Trent Edwards, "Trent has to better assess what he's seeing out there and take some shots down the field."
| Our view: That didn't take long. We know this routine. If the Bills don't turn it around, we may see exactly why the team only signed Owens to a one-year contract. |

Bills | Owens not a big fan of no-huddle Wed Sep 9, 04:32 PM
The Associated Press reports Buffalo Bills WR Terrell Owens said he is not a fan of the no-huddle offense but is willing to play in the system. Owens said the no-huddle has been tiring him out since returning from injury.
| Our view: Owens will have to get used to the no-huddle offense, as Buffalo is likely to use that a majority of the time they're on the field - especially while RB Marshawn Lynch is out due to suspension. |

| Our view: We still wouldn't take Owens as a WR1 because of the chances of an injury to Trent Edwards, which would make the passing offense stall out. |
