• Vote: Would the Jets be a better fit than the Bengals for Terrell Owens?
• Rank 'Em: How do some of the NFL's most famous egos stack up against each other?

Putting Terrell Owens on the same football team as Chad Ochocinco? Yikes, that sounds like a bold move by the Bengals. The only thing riskier that we can think of is to put T.O. in the media capital of the world. What's that, Adam Schefter? The Jets have reportedly reached out to Drew Rosenhaus about Owens? Well, this could be interesting.

Owens is the most intriguing old guy outside the state of Mississippi not in camp, but at least some fans think he gets a bad rap on the chemistry front.

• "You've heard of mountain out of a mole hill. Well T.O. is Himalayas out of an ant hill. He was made a scapegoat in two places (Dallas and Philly) where the fans refuse to recognize the root of the real problem (coaching and ownership). But yet neither team has gone any further than they did with him on the team (don't quote me, but I don't think). Also, he's never said anything that isn't true. Maybe he shouldn't have said it, but it didn't make it not true." -- SN commenter charles_thomas24

Then again, even if T.O. ended up being the most boring reality-television star this side of the "Real World" in Washington D.C. when "Hard Knocks" takes on the Jets, how much does he have left as a football player?

• "Great now with Braylon Edwards and T.O. on the team my beloved Jets will lead the league in dropped passes with just two players. All those drops will be no good for the development of the sanchize!" -- SN commenter mkarmd

Is there a point to the Jets signing TO other than Hard Knocks ratings? They seem pretty set at WR despite Holmes' suspension.

Let's be clear: I think the Jets are a long shot to sign T.O. A source told me this morning this is basically exploratory in nature, much like the JaMarcus Russell situation a month ago. But there's no doubt that the "Knocks" folks are rooting for T.O. in NY. Could you imagine the shows? It would be must-see TV. And I agree, they're set despite Holmes' suspension. And nothing has changed with Braylon Edwards; as I reported a month ago, he's not getting suspended. Full transcript
