Re: I Cant Believe We Won I Still Can't!!!!
Other than being smaller WRs I don't see anything similar in comparing Moss to Clark or Sanders.
Clark was a big play guy, but he didn't have the slippery open field moves that Moss does or the flat out breakaway speed. Based on pure athletic talent and ability, Moss is a freak like we have never seen in a Redskins uniform. |

Re: I Cant Believe We Won I Still Can't!!!!
too true. remember when we had Lav Coles run the WR screen? 2yds and a puff of dust, and he's good player. Moss is something else, a WR screen in his hands is almost as good as tossing it up. some crazy percentage of Brunell's yards last year was all Moss YAC.

He's so deadly on those screens because he can stop on a dime and reach full speed in just a few steps. He basically becomes a punt returner in the open field.

Re: I Cant Believe We Won I Still Can't!!!!
Have you guys noticed how Moss almost always twists and spins his body when he first gets hit? Most of the time it probably gives him an extra .5-1 yard on the play, and sometimes, of course, it strips the tackler and he can burn downfield for a 60yrd TD. I don't notice too many other receivers doing that little spin move.

Moss on Redskins.com
Reporter "Did it seem to go in slow motion for you?" Moss "Nuhuh, I don't think nuthin' I do go in slow motion" You got that right. |

that's what he was. a punt returner that the Jets thought was too short to be a wideout. huuuuuge mistake. and we got Randle El precisely in that mold. one on one vs. guys like this is such a gamble. i think our organization is pioneering the short shifty WR, just like we pioneered trading Draft picks for young talented Free Agents ('cept Archuleta grrr)

Re: I Cant Believe We Won I Still Can't!!!!
Hard to believe the Jets were close to demoting Moss to their #3 wideout before we got him.
Like he said, all he needed was a chance. And to think we took Gardner over him. Funny how things work out sometimes. |

Re: I Cant Believe We Won I Still Can't!!!!
how long have we had Santana, and how long has he still been thanking the organization for that chance? such a class act, never complaining, always producing.
polar opposite of T.O.

It's not hard to believe...the Jets don't play to win, they play for draft picks!

Much easier to score at home than on the road. Remember that. If we can put up 24+ in New York, we will roll over our schedule.
