Trent Edwards probably stands as the man with the most to gain or lose with the performance of Terrell Owens. If the relationship blossoms, then Trent positions himself to move up into the realm of top quarterbacks, and a big payday. If it fails, then Trent likely falls onto the scrap heap of NFL wannabe quarterbacks.
Either way, Trent has some control on how the relationship works with his performance on the field. Unfortunately, Trent is finding out quickly that he needs T.O. just as much off the field. Prior to T.O.'s injured toe, Trent (and the team) was sailing merrily along, the no-huddle greasing expectations with people diverted by the T.O. show, the housing hunt, and the like.
Since the T.O. injury, though, things have changed, and just may be turning the corner towards ugly. It seems obvious to me that the new attention on Trent's perceived deficiencies have again rattled the young quarterback. It was somewhat astonishing to hear him throw the coaches under the bus after the debacle in Green Bay. While it may be a true indication of his true feeling about the level of trust he has in the staff, it is alarming, as he has always maintained the good soldier routine. To see it break down in pre-season is a scary developement. It doesn't seem to be much of a stretch to see Trent's dissent filter through the locker room, and appear to be a green light for open season on Jauron and the staff.
