had OWENS the one who played with Joe, Ronnie and the Gang, there would have never been a T.O.... and Owens would have set records better than Jerry Rice..
What is this based on? Owens never looked better then Rice did. Just having Joe throwing to him? I know TO clocked a better 40 time, but he didn't look that must faster in game then Jerry and the his hands aren't in jerrys class either.
It will be simply based on the era he played on..
Owens would never be a diva (TO) because of the great leadership those 49ers had back then.. Having to work with those type of players would have made Owens a player similar to that of Joe, Ronnie and them..
His hands would have also been better because of concentration to get the play executed.
Look at Owens #s now, he got to 2nd place with all the dramas, medias and controversies... These would have never happened back in those days.. and that being said, can you imagine what more he could have accomplished???
