The Facts:
With the Eagles set to visit the Cowboys Monday night, Owens can't miss an opportunity to discuss his former team and his former quarterback, saying a major reason he left Philadelphia was that Donovan McNabb couldn't handle his fame. "I think the fans and just the excitement of me coming there and being there, it became too overwhelming for Donovan," Owens said.

Owens also indicated that McNabb didn't like how popular Owens was becoming among fans in Philadelphia. "I can remember being in that stadium and hearing them chanting my name," Owens said. "That couldn't bode well for Donovan to hear that. It was an every-week thing." Owens did acknowledge that "Donovan made me a better receiver in Philly." He then added, "but I think it would be hard for him to admit that I made him a better quarterback."
