We've had more KICKERS hurt this year than kick returners. Put in Moss, gain field position, possibly get a touchdown.

I don't think Green had a broken rib at the time but I could be wrong. Im pretty sure he got injured on the return. As far as who cares if Moss gets injured b/c its the last game, well, I care. What makes Moss a true No. 1 threat is that quickness and speed, ya take that away with a blown out knee and the guy might not recover in the off season. I just think he should be used as a PR only if the game depends on it, i.e. 4th quarter and we need a big play.
