Owens calls early-season output 'pathetic'
Wide receiver Terrell Owens isn't exactly pleased with his production in his first season with the Buffalo Bills.
"I mean, they're pathetic, to be honest," Owens said Wednesday of his early-season numbers, according to the Buffalo News. "Definitely, for myself, it's very, very frustrating. I hear a lot of people saying I've hit the wall, I can't play any more, this and that. I mean, I know I can play. But that's the thing: I understand what's going on with this team."
Owens has 18 catches for 242 yards and one touchdown in seven games this season.
"From a team standpoint, we're going to have to do the little things to help win games," Owens said, according to the News. "We know we've got a lot of rookies on the offensive line. We've got a lot of injuries, a lot of new guys filling in. So we've got a lot of first-year guys on the front line.
"Teams are knowing that and scheming, and pinning their ears back and bringing a lot of pressure. So that's not allowing us to really throw the ball downfield and get a lot of those timing patterns in as we would like. So that's why we have to take advantage of those opportunities as you saw two weeks ago when Lee [Evans] caught a slant and went to the house."
