It's no secret that TO had some very memorable moments on the field; however, sadly, some of his most memorable moments came OFF the field.

His antics and constant mouth running seem to always be at the forefront so far during his NFL career, but you cannot dismiss the fact that TO is quite possibly (Jerry Rice aside) a receiver with one of the best work ethics the NFL has ever seen.

He is a workout warrior and has always stayed in shape physically. Mentally? That's a whole other story.

The big question I would like to address is, could adding TO make the Rams a playoff contender?

It has been argued that the Rams can potentially win 5-6 games this year AS IS. With that said, can they pull out another 3-4 wins with TO and

squeak into the playoffs as a major cinderella and make some noise? OR, let's even go a step further... how about possibly winning the division?

Let's face it, the Rams have no legitimate #1 wide receiver. That has been their Achilles heel on offense over the past couple years... and Owens knows this offense. Should the Rams make the move? Could he help?

Should Rams fans, "Getcha Popcorn Ready"?

More after the jump...

It's no secret that the NFC West is a very weak division. The Seahawks, in my opinion, are a falling franchise right now, and the 49ers are no juggernaut. Top that with Kurt Warner retiring, Boldin saying "cya" for the Ravens (which leaves Arizona set up for a potential freefall), and you have yourself a recipe for some hope in St Louis that would make even Bobby Flay excited.

Let's "pretend" for a moment that TO signs, and has a great camp. 

Looking at the Rams schedule, they start the season with 4 very winnable games EVEN with AJ Feeley at the helm (3 out of 4 at home).

ARIZONA CARDINALS   (W)

at Oakland Raiders       (L)  could we squeak it out, YES

WASHINGTON REDSKINS   (W)

SEATTLE SEAHAWKS    (W)

The next 4 also aren't all that bad either,

at Detroit Lions  (L)

SAN DIEGO CHARGERS   (L)

at Tampa Bay   (W)

CAROLINA PANTHERS  (W)

After the first half of the season, I could seriously see us potentially at 5-3 or even 6-2. Remember, this isn't about TO's ability as much as what he brings to the table as far as attention. Action Jackson could have some monster numbers against many of the aforementioned opponents, and also you can't deny TO would step up to the plate on many occasions and make some big plays too.

Now let's look at the second half, with the first four being the worst stretch of the season:

at San Francisco 49ers  (L)

ATLANTA FALCONS  (L)

at Denver Broncos   (L)

at Arizona Cardinals   (W)

Now the end stretch:

at New Orleans Saints (L)

KANSAS CITY  (W)

SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS  (W)

at Seattle Seahawks  (W)

After all is said and done, there are a few things to consider. The above potential outcomes pit us at 9-7 and SWEEPING Seattle and Arizona. Now, if we do that (barring a monstrous 49er year) we would most likely win the division.

So here's what is interesting... if we're gonna make the playoffs this year with 9 wins, the most likely scenario will be the Rams entering as division champions.

Now, we can't ignore the fact that Sam will be hopping into the lineup at some point, so (sorry Sam) it really, ONCE AGAIN, comes down to how well he plays when inserted.

Now The "If's"

If SJAX and the O-Line have a great year and stay healthy, if the defense looks at least somewhat respectable, if A.J. plays well enough to open the season, if Sam steps in and does even average, if TO keeps his mouth shut and just plays his game, AND if we get a few balls bouncing our way, well... it could very well become a reality.

So I ask you, do YOU think we can make a run like this by adding T.O.?
