Is it just me, or does it seem extremely odd that we've seen more than a fair share of Owens TD highlights with him burning a DB in single coverage or of him catching a ball in the back of the endzone all alone? Who schemes a defense against him where you EVER loose him? Even if you have to bring in a 3rd safety and take a LB out and all that person does is stay behind TO, I would rather make the Eagles beat me on the ground and with the other WRs rather than leave TO in single coverage without a safety over top of him. I was watching the highlights from last night and it made me think of all the ESPN highlights I saw last season that looked the same.

Am I missing something?

Can someone explain it to me, a guy who was in band in high school instead of in pads, how that happens? Is it the players or the play calling or both?
