Jerry Rice is the best ever hands down

Randy Moss is the greatest straight line WR ever maybe, but he's not a more complete WR than Rice. Rice also played where the defense was allowed to mug WR.

If Moss gave the same effort he gave in 98, 07,08 during his entire career then he would have crushed every record known to man

Instead, he pouts when things dont go exactly how he wants them to and it cost him and made that his legacy

Well Randy had the talent to be the greatest of all time. Jerry had the drive to be the GOAT. Big difference.

first of all
quote:

Jerry Rice played about 3 or 4 years too many IMO

quote:

He compiled stats by staying in the league too long

that's retarded.

Second of all, taking every WR at their peak I'd say Randy is #1, Jerry Rice wins bc of longevity and consistency though...

it's all a mute point though once Megatron is done

I get what you're saying but is there really "nothing" moss brought that rice didn't? Rice's heyday was a little before my time. I always thought he was just average athletically. Moss is one of the nfl's all time great athletes/game breakers.

Take away his last three years and he is still easily the greatest WR of all time production wise.

That stuff ended in the 70's, they may have tweeked a little more, but the big change was 1978, everyone after that is much different.

IMO once Megatron is done with the league people won't remember Randy Moss( and thats his fault), people will always know who Jerry Rice is.

People will remember Randy Moss. Hes a huge part of the history of the league and will be a HoF.

I don't even agree with that, I still think Rice has him.

To say Rice was just "avg athletically" is just silly. If they were running a 100M, Moss wins, but who cares. Both could blow the top off a coverage, so who cares if head to head Moss was faster. Rice was a better route runner and a smarter player. Like someone else said, Moss was a great striaght line WR. But Rice was the complete package.

so true

Moss is the GOAT, Kobe is the GOAT, 2010 + Bama is the GOAT dynasty...Mila Kunis is the hottest cinema chick ever.

It's like the 80's never happened.

Never is a strong word. He has a couple seasons that he worked his arse off.

But overall i see what youre saying.

It's pretty spot on.

I'd like to see a solid comparison of WRs both played with too.
