1.who would you rather have,moss or smith?
2.is smith better because delholmme is better than brunell?
3.why wont gibbs let star players return kicks? smith is considered the nfl's best rec this yr,but he's still returning kicks,other teams have their stars return kicks,gibbs didnt even have moss return punts in the playoffs even after browns fumble,i know it's because he doesnt want to risk injury,but i cannot remeber the last time i saw a kr get seriously injured
4.should moss return kicks?

Okay, I want to preface this by saying that I spent much of this season watching Steve Smith. I never liked him before. I used to hate the fact that he would celebrate all the time like he was the best WR ever. That said, having watched him this year, he totally changed my perception of him. I think that Steve Smith is the best wide receiver in the NFL.
1. Who would I rather have? Well, I think they're both great NFL receivers and since Moss is already here, I'd go Santana.

2. I don't think that Delhomme is better than Brunell because Jake Delhomme is a lot like a young Jake Plummer. When Delhomme has his A game he's a pretty good QB, but when he has off days (more than 1 or 2 a year) he is horrendous.

3. I think that Gibbs just doesn't have Santana take kicks back for exactly the reason you said, he doesn't want to risk injury to Santana.

4. I don't think that Moss should be returning punts. I think that we should get a young #3/#4 receiver to come in and do that. Or we could use a young CB if we needed to, but I just don't like the idea of having superstar players return punts.
