Well, this has been materializing over the course of the last few days. This comes as no surprise given Carson Palmer's ringing endorsement for Owens, and the Bengals propensity for signing guys who could potentially be trouble. From a football standpoint, Owens definitely has something left and can help a team.While those sentiments apply, they also discredit the statistical accomplishments Roethlisberger has posted. Despite missing three games in 2012, Roethlisberger managed to find the end zone 26 times with just eight interceptions. His 251.2 yards per game was his lowest mark since 2008, although that can be chalked up to the assimilation into a new offensive scheme under coordinator Todd Haley and the underperformance of wideout Mike Wallace.

I get the feeling that Finn's shorter run has probably reduced his maximum speed a little but his average speed will not change much, if at all. If he can expend less energy while bowling then his speed will stay up for longer,
