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.

classic redskins...makes me wanna cry...

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.

Beemnseven · 10-14-2007, 04:18 PM

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.

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.

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.

He cost us this game.

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

Moss was a piece of shit today. I like that Joe benched him at the end of the game in favor of McCardell. 6 or 7 drop balls is way too many from this receiving corp. Brandon Lloyd could have caught that ball for a TD. Yes, it was difficult but doesn't he pride himself on the spectacular catch? This is now TWO games that we have given away. Realistically we could be 5-0. sucks

mheisig · 10-14-2007, 04:30 PM

Moss owes his game paycheck to Campbell and Cooley, the only two guys on the offense who stepped up today.

I suppose we're all entitled to an "off day," but for crying out loud it's like he left his brain in D.C. today.

Nobody said anything about cutting Santana Moss until you did.

skinsguy · 10-14-2007, 04:32 PM

I think I am going to take a different approach to this. Moss owes us a big game. Let's forget about this and move on to the Cardinals. I'm not going to join in with the whining.
