You do realize no team wanted to sign Randy Moss last year, right?

Have you followed Randy's career since he left New England. He was waived by his original team and thrown away by the freaking Titans and couldn't even get on a roster last season.

This is Randy Moss' 14th year in the league. Let's compare his career numbers to Rice's after his 14th year in the league.


.............REC...YARDS....AVG....TD
Moss.....982.....15,292....15.6.....156
Rice...1,139......17,612....15.5.....164



Moss has played in 218 career games. After his 1999 season, Rice had played in 222 career games. When you compare Moss to Rice at that point in Rice's career, the gap only widens


.............REC...YARDS....AVG....TD
Moss.....982.....15,292....15.6.....156
Rice...1,206......18,442....15.3.....169



And you reference him as a compiler. Well Rice's career per game average is still greater than Moss' even though Moss played in almost 100 less games

Receptions per game:
Moss: 4.5
Rice: 5.1

Receiving yards per game:
Moss: 70.1
Rice: 75.6


And Rice caught over 90 passes for more than 1,200 yards as a 40 year old and made the Pro Bowl. That's far from a compiler

Is it really absurd to suggest that the guy who has the 3rd most Rec. Yards, 2nd Most Rec. TDs, but is only 9th in receptions is the greatest WR of all time? I mean, Rice took 600 more receptions to get the numbers he has. Doesn't that make Moss a LOT more dynamic?

Rice also played in vastly superior offenses. His QBs were Joe Montana and Steve Young. Moss was catching passes from Daunte Culpepper and Kerry Collins.

Jerry Rice's 3rd to last season in the league, 40 years old - 92 Rec., 1,211 Yds., 7 TDs

Randy Moss's 3rd to last year (had to sit out his 2nd to last year because no one wanted him), 33 years old - 28 Rec., 393 Yds., 5 TDs
