T.O. update

The Bills have officially listed wide receiver Terrell Owens as questionable after he was limited in practice on Friday, but Owens said he intends to play against Tennessee on Sunday.

Owens said he was feeling much better after missing the last two practices with a sore hip. He's not sure how it happened, but indicated he fell asleep on his couch Monday night and woke up the next morning feeling stiff.

Two days of treatment worked because he showed no signs of injury during Friday's workout.

"With a lot of prayer and just rest and treatment, I knew I would be ready,'' Owens said after practice. "I've been in this situation. I know my body better than anybody or any doctor, for that matter. Earlier in the week, it was painful. I'm not sure what triggered it, but I did everything today.

"If you would have asked me [Thursday], it would have been iffy. But I'm very faithful and with prayer you can't be denied, so I really wasn't worried about it.''

The only hurdle Owens has to get over is any post-practice soreness that might occur. Barring any setbacks on Saturday, he'll be on the field in Tennessee.

Will the bye week help this offense get the ball down the field? I don't know. Hopefully Owens will light up the Titans secondary Sunday, but I highly doubt that.
