TO will have like 1300 yards and Moss will have like 1200.
But the Skins WR corps as a whole will top the entire NFC East, and that's really the question we should care about most. It's a team game after all. Dallas can have their TO and his gaudy numbers. We'll take the wins.

Excellent point. There was a year ('91) when Dallas had the NFC's leading receiver (Michael Irvin), the league's leading rusher (Emmitt Smith), and the NFC's most accurate passer (Troy Aikman). Their TE Jay Novacek also led the NFC in receptions for a TE. But our offense still put up more points, had more productivity and higher rankings overall, and we also sent five guys to the Pro Bowl. Oh yeah, and we also won the division by three games and won the Super Bowl. I could care less about having stars with gaudy statistics; so what if T.O. gets the receiving crown. As long as we kick Dallas' ass (and everybody else's), that's all that matters.
