Where T.O. was right

Terrell Owens was suspended and deactivated for the rest of the season by the Eagles yesterday. This was the result of a culmination of bad behavior by Owens, but he was right about one thing: The Eagles would be better with Brett Favre at quarterback right now. Part of this is because Donovan McNabb has been playing hurt, but even before that, Brett was the better quarterback. McNabb is a very good quarterback, don't get me wrong, but he's never really been a Favre caliber quarterback. Even this year, with the team rotting around him, Favre has been playing pretty high caliber football. I dislike Owens as much as the next guy, and I think he fully deserves his suspension, but not for the comparison of McNabb and Favre that he made on ESPN.
