How many times can we remember that he missed an open receiver deep...and who can remember when he hit?
Now, the type of pass needed in the red zone is over a defender unless you can split a seam. But for JC I think this is a low-percentage play. That's why they don't throw a fade in the corner of the endzone. That's also the kind of pass play needed for bombs. The lack of that particular technique for JC is the reason why the WRs exploded when Collins came in several years ago. While he has a noodle arm, he is better at this kind of pass. This is also the reason that Moss has never succeeded with Jason Campbell: the routes he runs requires a QB that can deliver the ball over the top with reasonably consistent accuracy (and time to adjust to it.) I think that Zorn also feels that JC has this limitation. For this reason he is loathe to call for a play that depends on this kind of a pass. Of course, this greatly limits the playbook in the red zone and greatly reduces the number of times you call a bomb.

Well I think this season Moss hasn't shown up to play.

No excuse, but he's probably tired of running his butt of to no avail. We have QB that can throw the ball but can't figure out where.
