having a great deep threat on a team with a limp armed qb would be a horrible mistake. moss just didn't fit well with what they were doing, and coles did. I think if we had coles last year and they had moss, coles would have still outperformed on yardage, simply because moss wouldn't be getting too many bombs from a qb like pennington, and they weren't really screening to him much either.

being good in one person's system doesn't mean you'll be great in every system (though when you're as good as moss, the system should work around to include what you do best). what's important for the skins is that they have a #1 WR/deep threat (that can go to the ball and erase mistakes) with a QB can that's pretty good at chucking it deep.

Agreed. Well put.
