T.D. showed Moss some love!

He might not catch 100...but to call T.D. an idiot for making that prediction, is Moronic.

I'm thinking something like 70-1190-8 do you think that these numbers will lead the team? i dont think 70 catches will lead the team.

maybe i'm being unrealistic but i think its more like 90+, 1350, 8(i think all our wrs have atleast 5 tds(ARE, lloyd,cooley)

450 attempts at 70% completion rate = 315 completions
30% of 315 completions = 95 receptions

I don't think it is unreasonable to expect Moss to account for 30% of our receptions (if Brunell and Moss stay healthy).30% is not unreasonable, but if Brunell was to complete 70%, I'd put him into the hall of fame the day after we won the SB 84-0. He's a consistently high passer, but 60% is a general standard for greatness depending on the offense.

He might not catch 100...but to call T.D. an idiot for making that prediction, is Moronic.I'm not calling him an idiot for the prediction. I'm calling him an idiot independant of the prediction.

and we threw 481 times last year! why do yout think that that number will decrease?If we win more games than last year, all those passing plays down the stretch become runs.

I think if he catches that many passes...it will actually be a bad thing for the skins' do be honest. If he is seeing the ball that much, it probaboly means our other recivers are not producing like they should be. I'm liking the 80 range of catches. He's still our #1 guy, but I think Lloydd and R'El should see the ball alot too.

...general standard...depending...

Not much of a standard, I guess. ;)

Many people on this forum are too critical.

I didn't say that Brunell would complete 70%. I simply did the math to show that it wasn't unreasonable to think Moss might catch 100 balls. But still, people must insist that I am wrong (or unrealistic). Gimme a break!

I don't mind if he catches 100. Simply means he was open 100 times. There have been teams with multiple receivers catching 100 before. it's not a bad thing.

If the new offense is geared towards dumping the ball and quick hitches there's no reason to believe he couldn't catch 100 balls. Truth be told it all depends how defenses play us and the kind of impact our new receivers will have.

If the new receivers garner no respect form opposing defenses, no way in hell Moss catches 100 balls. If they do and they leave Moss in single coverage, well, I'll take Moss over any DB (except maybe Champ, cause we all know Champ is the MAN! :P).

p.s. Portis might have 50+ catches this year.
