not giving 100%? WTF? I seriously doubt that

I have watched all three of the Pats games on NFL replay and he has been running wide open every game. Brady is just having problems with his protection and consistently delivering the ball

Moss knows big names don't get traded during the season and that Belichick is not the guy to mess with

Moss has caught 10 more or more passes in 2 of the 3 games so far this season. When he was dogging it in Oakland, he would catch about 50 passes a season. Sports radio is always good for rehashing old stories and making claims without any evidence.

Here is the article on Moss. They charted his effort on every play against the Falcons.

I definitely don't see that in the article. It's easy to point out something that a player does less to satisfaction, but I guarantee to you if I nitpicked Adrian Peterson's 200 yard game, I could still make it sound like he punched a ref and ran for 75 yards on 25 carries.

Hypothetical: He missed a block that would have given Favre 2 more seconds to find a wide open Percy Harvin in the end zone. He ran too high so he missed the opportunity to get a touchdown instead of 12-yard gain on 3rd and 2. He dropped a screen pass that would have gained 20 yards. After he gained 18 yards and was tackled by three players, he was slow to get back to the huddle and caused a delay of game when Favre tried to audible. Man, what a horrible player.

Dude, it's the 4th fricking sentence of the article. Reading comprehension, man.

Why would he rather play with an old Farve, than Tom Freaking Brady?

I watched Moss make some rediculous catches on the sidelines in that game. He also leads the league in catches. I don't think he's "dogging" it.

The Falcons' safeties did something smart: They used Moss' bouts of laziness against him. Atlanta's safeties watched Moss closely. If he jogged off the line of scrimmage they ignored him, knowing the play wasn't going to him.

If they noticed Moss running aggressively, they focused on him, knowing the ball was likely coming his way.


what a joke

I have never seen Moss run up to the line, even if a play was suppose to go his way. This dude is trying way too hard.

You're whole routine that centers around condescension is starting to wear thin, but you know that. People call you out on it, but you continue to do it for some reason or another.

I realize that they say that they charted every play, but they don't have a spreadsheet attached with every play or anything similar. The guy uses flimsy anecdotal evidence to prove his point after making the claim.

Mike Florio was on Dan Patrick show and said that he just made that story up as a justification of why Mosshas been "dogging" it. I don't know if Florio was being serious or not...but he was the 1st one to report it

Florio is an admitted hack. But that's cool, because he doesn't claim to be a real journalist.

Code: I messed up. You are really being mean to me.



Just a review. Someone else started this thread. I simply linked the article that started the talk radio comments. I did not give an opinion about Moss. I think he is great. I don't agree or disagree because I have no way of knowing.

You respond that it doesn't say this, like I am your opposition. You quoted the charting of the plays and said you don't see this in the article. Obviousley, you meant something else. Quit being a pussy.
