I think fans look at what he did in 2005 and in their minds, that's what he really is. But that was five year ago and he hasn't been close to that level since. He's been an absolute bum this season though.
Nobody who's rationally and objectively looking at Santana can say that he isn't in decline. He was part of the 2001 draft -- if nothing else, he's getting up there in football age. If there's a dropping of the ax and an 'out with old, in with the new' philosophy that takes hold here, Santana Moss has to be part of that discussion.
