Which isn't to say we don't need Moss in 3 WR sets. But that we should limit him to those sets, and certain plays out of 2 WR sets.

Why do you want to limit Moss in the base 2 WR/3 WR sets?

I don't think Moss problems getting open are due to poor route running (maybe a litte) nor do i think that the rookies or ARE are better route runners. IMO the source of the problem is that Moss often gets doubled.

At the begining of the year i was surprised when Zorn moved Moss to the X receiver, but it worked great until teams started doubling him.

Now i would like to see Devin@X and Moss@Z my reason is this:

1) Moss often draws double coverage, a corner playing tight underneath coverage with safety help up top, with Moss as the Z receiver he would bring his double with him and draw the attention of the strong side safety away from Cooley

2) As the Z receiver Moss would have a free release making it easier to get off press coverage (if he needs it)

3) This allow whoever plays the X receiver to reap the benefits traditional benefits of the position b/c they wouldn't face double like Moss


-btw good discussion
