Re: Skins hope Moss will thrive again as their X-man
Moss has always struck me as a mini-diva at WR.. He's never been disruptive, that's not his style, but if he wasn't really happy or comfortable with what he's being asked to do he isn't going to yield maximum results. We could see that in the GB game with all of the drops and then pulling himself from the game. He would get visibly frustrated after plays the past 2 years. In '05 he seemed happy, had bounce and spring in his step and had a great year.. His balky leg injuries seem to be less debilitating when he's comfortable doing what he wants to do.

Re: Skins hope Moss will thrive again as their X-man
I think Saunders wanted him at Z, or flanker, so he would be a few yards behind the line of scrimmage, thinking the extra space to avoid the CB jam would help. But the numbers don't lie. His two best seasons are at X (split end), when he's on the line of scrimmage close to the sideline. He's so fast out of his break, I think it actually benefits him to be closer to the CB so he can get behind them that much faster.
I've been impressed with Zorn so far. He hasn't had to handle much yet, but he's been solid thus far IMO.
