On Coles vs Moss, I don't think we should focus on who will put up the bigger stats. Besides, how do you know which stats will help you win? Is it who has the most catches? Is it who has the most yards? Or maybe it's a matter of who has the most yards per catch?

Coles might put up better numbers than Moss in terms of catches and yards, but I'll bet Moss puts up the better Yards per Catch. But that's not the point, I think you have to look at their effect on the entire team. Given the fact that the Washington Redskins are a run-first team and don't have one of the best QBs in the league, you have to ask this question: which receiver will have a better impact on the Redskins running game? If you are putting a strategy together for the Redskins, you have a strong line, Portis, Betts, and Nemo for short yardage, and you're thinking run first. We need a receiver to open up running lanes, and the best way to do that is with a speed demon with big play ability. Safeties and corners need to respect Moss more than they need to respect Coles and his damaged toe.

I think Moss has a more positive impact on OUR TEAM. Who cares what the stats say.
