After seeing the replay of the 70 yarder, more than a few times, if you get the right angle you will see Brunell actually under threw that ball, in the highlight you can see Moss slowing up, but it worked, Moss is so smooth it's very hard to notice full speed.

So are you saying it wasn't a good throw then? Looked pretty good to me. Can't understand why it's so hard for you to give Brunell some credit.

I did say it worked didn't I? Pointing out an observation, that perhaps you didn't pick up on, which if you watch the replay you will see that I am right, is uncontionable? Perhaps if you weren't looking for anything and everything to sing the praises of your beloved Brunell, you wouldn't be so quick to have to defend him when someone doesn't get on their knees and worship the guy, or merely points out the fact that he's not perfect, or didn't make a perfect throw as some have eluded to. Every throw that a QB makes doesn't have to be perfect so long as it works.

Pointing out that a ball was underthrown is a big deal to you?

I didn't say it was a lucky catch, or throw.

I give him all the credit in the world, how he made that 25 yard run with your head stuck so far up his arse is a feet unmatched in modern times.




OK I shouldn't have made that last comment, but I couldn't resist, I am SORRY TAF!

TAFKAS, haven't you learned by now that if some people don't have something to complain about, they can't get through life. It's a no-win situation..no sense in arguing with them.

Offiss, that original post of yours (which I think you have in some other thread), I interpreted as you basically saying "in spite of Brunell, Moss turned it into a catch and touchdown"

If I misunderstood you, then sorry

I am not sure which post but I never said that in spite of Brunell on that play, or any part of the game, I gave him all the credit in the world in the last 4 minutes, but did say in one form or another that basically Brunell stunk the joint up until the last 4 minutes, I didn't look at that play as Moss bailing Brunell out, Brunell made the play PERIOD! I merely stated that he underthrew the ball, but Moss is so smooth out there to watch at full speed you really can't tell, but in the highlights you can see him slow up, so yes it looked like a perfect throw to me when I first saw it, but when I had a chance to really look at it you could see it was underthrown that's it! Probably more of a compliment to how fast Moss really is, because he beat the boy's coverage worse than it actually looked, it's not a bad thing just an observation.
