T.O. thinks he's fifth captain
SI.com - NFL - Owens considers himself the Cowboys' fifth captain - Thursday September 20, 2007 5:20PM
Quote:
When the Dallas Cowboys picked their captains, Terrell Owens didn't make the cut.
So?
"I told the guys that I am a self-appointed captain," Owens said, laughing. "We had our first players' meeting right before our first game. Coach had the captains come up and say some things, and if anybody else wanted to say some things, they had the floor. I stood up and offered to be that self-appointed captain. Everybody kind of got a chuckle out of that."
Tony Romo and Jason Witten are the offensive captains. Bradie James represents the defense and Keith Davis the special teams.
If all four are ever inactive at the same time, then maybe coach Wade Phillips would send Owens out for the coin toss.
For now, though, Phillips will gladly settle for sending Owens out for passes -- and touchdowns.
T.O. has a TD catch in six straight games, one shy of the team record set by Frank Clarke in 1961-62 and matched by Bob Hayes in 1965-66. Clarke, Hayes and Michael Irvin also had six-game streaks.
Owens' roll is the longest going in the NFL. He's also got the second-longest streak of consecutive games with a catch, 154.
