Moss has been outstanding!!!

jsarno · 09-21-2008, 10:42 PM

I was vocal about Moss not being what we needed him to be, and not being a true #1 wr, but he has certainly been impressive and worthy of our #1 spot thus far. So I felt it fitting to start this thread. He is showing his pro bowl form again, and I love it. I said it before, and I'll say it again, I love watching him create when he catches a slant or screen...he's very explosive when healthy.

week 1- 5 rec, 37 yards, 1 td
week 2- 7 rec, 164 yards, 1 td
week 3- 7 rec, 75 yards, 1 td

He's on pace for 101 receptions, 1472 yards, and 16 tds!

Thank you for stepping up Moss...we need it!

I doubted him too coming into this season but he's really having a nice year so far. Hope he keeps it up.

GridIron26 · 09-21-2008, 10:52 PM

It's still too early to tell if he's back to his old form or not..

Skinner · 09-21-2008, 10:53 PM

I also doubted santana, I hope he keeps producing!!

nnanaannanana dude there is no way he is a viable #1 reciever, he would be #3 every where else. The guy is terrible, would not make it on a college team. To small, not fast enough, does not have the hands. Plus he always gets hurt, we need to trade him now while he is still looking promising.

I disagree...he's caught the balls thrown his way, and he is racking up the YAC. The only question is whether or not he will stay healthy. But he certainly has been reliable.

In case you haven't noticed, Moss has scored a TD in 6 straight games (including postseason).

No way is he a #3 on any team. The guy has won several games on last minute catches (Cowboys on MNF, Jax a few seasons ago, both wins this season have been capped off by Moss). And not fast enough? I sure hope this is sarcasm!

Are you serious?
Especially the "fast enough" comment...have you not been watching?

Please tell me you're joking, and I missed the sarcasm.

I like Moss A lot but I still say he's not a number 1. He's stepping up for us which is good, but I still say he's a hellava #2. The #1 should be a nice tall possession receiver going up against the #1 CB. Moss would be perfect as a #2 going up against #2 quality CB causing double teams due to his speed.

Moss spent alot of time this offseason with Campbell to make sure they were on the same page. Something he did'nt do last year. He takes the blame for that. It has paid off and I expect him to have a great year.

MTK · 09-21-2008, 11:48 PM

The screen for a TD was vintage 2005 Moss. I think he's is playing with a bit of a chip on his shoulder right now, and this offense is definitely geared towards getting him the ball. It's a good combo.

Clearly this dude is drunk

And kudos for Zorn for bringing back our best offensive play that Saunders scrapped for no good reason.

amen.

the personnel on this team thrive under the screen. Moss, Cooley, ARE, you name it. we're good with the screen. just wait till we start throwing in a fake screen here and there... and the offense opens right on up.

DirtyLandry · 09-22-2008, 12:40 AM

How about Jason Campbell and his 100.1 passer rating, 65% completion, 4 TD's and 0 INT's. I love Moss but we should be talking about the guy throwing him the ball.
