Sure he had Brooks last year and a carousel of QB's the year before. But Horn did great with Brooks chucking him the ball why can't Moss. For one he is lazy. He himself has said that he hasn't tried and that he just didn't feel like showing up that day. We don't need that here.
Are you kidding me? You actually expect moss to play well in that situation. Moss is only going to play well when he has at least a little help.
In case you are a newcomer to football, i'll break down how football works, ok.
Receivers are supposed to catch the ball from the quarterback.
Quarterback needs time to throw the ball in order to get the ball to Moss downfield which is what he does. He does not take 2 yard dumpoffs and run 90 yards. He runs down the field, and out runs or out jumps the defender, that is what he does. That is why he has been and still is the most feared receiver in the game. It is why he is the highest paid receiver if im not mistaken. Just in case you have never seen him play. He is single handedly the reason why we lost the home playoff game vs the Vikings in the infamous "Moss Moon Game" We shut those fools down for 3 1/2 quarters and then Moss punk'd us twice. Game over
Only thing is, the Raiders cant run block or pass block so it is impossible for Randy to have good numbers, i thought everyone already knew this??
Lastly, he is the only weapon on the field in Oakland so even if they did happen to get decent pass protection 3 times in a game, more than likely he was at least double covered.
But please, keep telling your stories about Joe Horn & Aaron Brooks if it makes you feel better.
This is all fine and dandy but Moss wasn't even the best reciever on his OWN team last year
Are you really implying that Ronald Curry is better than Randy Moss?
My point is Curry had the same guys throwing him the ball. Moss has lost something, I don't know what, but he just has gotten extremely lazy and average over the last 2-3 years. It's not based on his stats but rather on what I've seen. He just doesn't have any fire and plays about half-speed.
Anyways, I was told I must only use facts and not allowed to have opinions. So with that I am to assume Curry, McMichael, Horn, Bennett, etc are better than Moss.
