Funny how "someone" didn't bother looking it up until I put in my fine work.










Brother.

i thought i'd put a lid on the speculation, and go find out for sure. sorry that it coincided with your guesswork.:D

Oh yes......I'm sure it's very amusing to you.

He never liked the press. Even in college, he would rarely talk to them.

He's always been a tremendously unselfish player. They made a big deal about his "I play when I want to play" quote and how he takes plays off.

No reciever sprints down the field and does any more running than he does in a game....and opposing defenders always talk about the ability he has to lull you asleep when he changes pace so much from play to play.

In many of the bombs he catches he doesn't always come off the line hard, but he explodes a few strides into the play.

On run plays to his opposite side he will basically do nothing. Every now and than they fake the run to the opposite side - he comes off the line flat and than explodes.

Belichick and Brady both say Moss is the "smartest wide reciever I've ever seen" for many of the on-field reasons media people knocked him for.

Even now, he's a mismatch for every defensive back in the game. And you have to focus your entire defense around stopping him. That's much easier to do when a team has a lousy O-line (the Pats dont) a lousy QB (the Pats don't) or a lousy playcaller (the Pats dont)

He will have a HUGE game against Indy - of that I have no doubt. He has always been spectacular in playoff games and important regular season games.






Stick to horseys.

And don't forget the ultimate compliment from Wes Welker, something to the effect of, "he's alot smarter than he looks". I do realize that many athletes (and people, for that matter) have un-deserved reputations and mis-perceptions regarding character. However, I was unaware Randy Moss was in that category. We'll see how this plays out, I can say he's made all the right moves thus far in New England.

F.uck those chowder eating bastards.

Thank you ErnieBert.





We thoroughly enjoy being overrated in all the polls.....and in all the land...

...and in all the hearts and souls of good,strong God fearing American people.

The colts have one advantage. Pats have to travel here to play us on the carpet. Indianapolis is a completely diffirent team on the carpet. NE's secondary is not its strong suit. I think the matchup that will determine the game is whoever the pats put on gonzalez and if the colts can match up moss. Indy has a very quick defense but undersized in the secondary. Of course this is a homer pick, but I think we have enough gas to beat them.
