[QUOTE="all about da packers, post: 152141, member: 227"] Excellent post. That is a GREAT point to bring up. McCarthy has emphasized (and the stats show how much importance it has) that the WRs in our system will be counted on to [u]do something after the catch[/u]. While logically, Moss would seem to be able to do so, his attitude might prevent him from doing that. I'd love to see some stats on how good Moss was in YAC. I agree that if the main purpose of getting Moss was to add a deep threat, than the Packers (especially Brett) don't need Moss. It looks great when throwing 30-50 yard TDs works, but it doesn't work too often; another great point warhawk. At this point, I think Brett playing McCarthy's style of football (working through his reads and checking down, and focusing on short quick completions) is something that will prolong his career. I'm going to go and see if I can dig up some stats that tell us about Moss's Yards After Catch, and give us a better picture of how well he might have fit in our system. The thing that Jones seems to do (and Moss didn't) is go up and fight for the ball at his highest point. Moss could just get the ball because of his freakish skills, but James Jones does fit in more with we require in WRs in terms of being able to play physical coverage, as you said warhawk. [/QUOTE]
