Cooley is fine, but offenses can go only so far if their best receiving threat is a tight end who has trouble finding the endzone.
Whether you like Moss or not, he can still stretch the field. He seems to fit the D Jackson/D Stallworth mold that McNabb utilized well.

Was is Cooley who had trouble finding the endzone or was it the every one of our players under Captain Slip and Slide? So now Cooley is garbage too?!

Zorn never led us to 30 points in a year and a half.

He can? Like I said, five years ago he was good. There's been nothing special about him since.

If I'm wrong, I'm wrong -- fine, I hope he can light it up again. But I don't think it's out of the question to suggest that Santana Moss' best days are long gone.

I agree, there's nothing special about Santana any more. He's still a threat, I suppose but I would mind seeing us move him for a nice pick too.

Yeah, exactly. I remember last season, at the beginning where it seemed like Santana Moss took forever to get into the game. In fact someone here remarked that they were glad when he finally realized that preseason was over. Then there was the 'shoe-shining' crap in Cincinatti ... that was where he lost me.

Maybe it was Zorn's backward-moving, inept offense. But it just seems like it's been much easier for opposing defenses to scheme him out of the game.

He had over 1000 yards two years ago and 902 last year. Those are monster numbers in Zorn's WC.

I think he still has the speed to be effective and Shanny will maximize his ability.

Let's just say, I don't see him running the 5 yard slant several times a game and on 4th and short consistently.

Yeah. People said the same thing about Randy Moss as a raider.

Look, A number one Receiver without a valid number 2 or 3 receiver is pointless. Santana can't do anymore than Randy in Oakland or Steve Smith right now without some other receiver to draw attention. Did you see how the Patriots' passing game slumped after Wes Welker got hurt? That playoff game was sad! Not one of their receivers made 50 yards without Wes spreading the field.

Don't doubt Santana! Put another reciever out there and watch the magic happen!
