What is wrong with Santana Moss? (merged)

jsarno · 10-14-2007, 03:41 PM

He just has not been himself this year, and he is single handedly killing us today vs the Packers.
I have ran to defend Moss on several occasions, but this is getting bad.

What is wrong with him? Missing balls when he's wide open, fumbling, not running crisp routes (which is likely an injury issue). He's supposed to be our go to guy, and he's not reliable so far this year.

evidently, the hamstring muscle is connected to his hands

SFREDSKIN · 10-14-2007, 04:06 PM

I guess the same can be said about Portis.

They all look like they're going through the motions, maybe this is what you get when people join the team for paychecks rather than wins.

Well, I was going to start a thread about Santana Moss, because this is getting absurd.

It's high time people start calling him out. He's actually been on the decline since the 2005 season. With Campbell getting more experience his numbers should be increasing not decreasing. And the dropped balls haven't been a problem until now.

And Portis? The tendonitis must really be hurting, because he hasn't gotten on track yet and the season is 5 games old. Now, fumbling is becoming a problem.

These two guys should be our most valuable offensive weapons, and instead they're costing us games.

Portis' problem is he doesn't tuck the ball, he like dances with it.

Portis isn't a trucking back, the dude's like 5'9, 210, who's he really gonna run over? He is known as a speedy elusive guy. If the guy's gotta do the Macarena to make it into the endzone then damnit, let him do it.

Let's not cut Moss from the team just yet. Yes, he screwed up today and played like crap. But so did Portis and Randle El. Not to mention the fact that we now have no offensive line.

No one is suggesting that Santana Moss should be cut. Why is it when guys start getting called out, (when it's been long overdue) that translates into people thinking he should be cut?

It's not just today -- Moss has been lackluster all year. The fact that the offensive line has suffered injuries has nothing to do with Moss's dropped balls and fumbling.

Because most of the time it does and it will before the day is over with.

Nobody said anything about cutting Santana Moss until you did.

Why don't you go cool off, have a cold one or two and stop arguing with me. I don't feel like arguing and playing the crying game with you.

jsarno · 10-14-2007, 04:21 PM

This thread isn't about Portis...While portis has not been what we are accustomed, he has not performed poorly this year like Moss has.
Moss is supposed to be our #1 guy...the guy we can rely on, and where has he been?

He is too good for this.

EARTHQUAKE2689 · 10-14-2007, 04:24 PM

He cost us this game.
