What a catch. He really is the best receiver in the NFL.

Randy Moss is pretty good. I would start him if he were on my team.

I'm not afraid to admit that I thought the bumps that he and Collins were getting going into the season were overreaction. Now....not so sure. If they can play pitch and catch like that all year....

Give me a break. Lets see how many TDs Cpep has this week 1st

Agreed. He is impossible to stop. I remember a few years ago when Minn was playing the Giants (MNF I think) he totally abused the Giants secondary. No one could cover him. He was open whenever he wanted to be.

Not quite. But I think that was the same year. Was that the playoff game?

What does this have to do with Cpep? So if Moss had sucked tonight then you would post something like :that sound you hear is Cpep's stock rising?"Cpep will be fine. Not to knock Moss because he's real good but Minn has so many weapons Cpep will be able to utilize them now that Moss isn't demanding the ball all the time. The reason most people don't realize how potent they are is because of all the attention Moss received.
Did anybody else think that Moss looked a little nonchalant on a few of the balls thrown to him in the endzone?I did like his overall demeanor though...he didn't go crazy after the TD, remained calm during the game, and was hand slapping his linemen even when the game was basically over. Overall, I thought he looked positive and team oriented...

Get used to it Raiders fans.
Madden and Michaels made me want to punch the screen when they both talked about how they don't understand "addition by subtraction".

This is just sad. Minn had a 64-48 record with Moss on the team, went to the playoffs 4 of 7 years and 2 NFC Champ games. Not to mention Oak was a 5-11 team last year playing the 2 time defending SB Champs and only modern day dynasty in their back yard. Yet still people find a way to try and twist this into a Moss hate fest. So, who were you expecting to win the game fellas.When is the last time the Pats lost at home? Get some perspective, people.

They'll be saying things like this about him his whole career. BTW, he looked just great in the 41-0 loss to the Giants.He's gone to two conference championship games. And when his team has lost it's much more often been the fault of poor defense than Moss' fault. 130 yards and a TD isn't to blame for a loss.EDIT:

Without question, if he stays healthy in body and mind for the entire year, he'll be top 3 for sure.Moss carrer numbers in playoff games (8):35/723/9They'll be saying things like this about him his whole career.

Please post his stats from his Super Bowl game next. If he's so unwordly good he should have been in a few right?Moss carrer numbers in playoff games (8):35/723/9They'll be saying things like this about him his whole career.

Don't waste your time with facts and logic. Haters will hate, period. They are impervious to the actual numbers and only see through hate colored glasses.Does Moss need to improve in some aspects of his performance? Clearly.
Would I want him on my beloved Dolphins? If he can help Kerry Collins look good on the road against the defending world champs, I would love to see him in aqua and orange.
Would I want him on my fantasy team? That should be obvious.

As a fantasy football player he's dominant. As an NFL player, and as the supposed 'leader' of the team you are hoping will lead your team to glory he's really good at getting his. There's a reason the Vikings wanted this guy out of their locker room and there's a reason only the Raiders wanted him.

I started him in the FFTOC football guys tourney. I was hoping for another score, but he did pretty well.
Point taken.Maybe anyone expecting him to be a leader is just expecting too much. As a player and a FF player he is unworldly good. OK, he has a chip on his shoulder and personally I think the guy is an ###.
An ### can help you win games and it was not Moss fault the Raiders lost last night. He did his job.
I think he wanted to welcome Moss to the AFC.As good as that catch was the tackle, or should I say lunge, by Rodney Harrison was :X . It was clear he was just trying to lay Moss out when he should have been wrapping him up.Without that Moss' night would have seemed pretty pedestrian.

Now it's Moss's fault he wasn't tackled properly. He showed phenomenal concentration catching that ball, and then accelerated past two defenders to score that touchdown, and you guys want to take the play away from him. Without all of Moss's big plays his career would look pretty pedestrian.But that's what he does, take away what anyone excells at and they suck. Your point is moot.As good as that catch was the tackle, or should I say lunge, by Rodney Harrison was :X . It was clear he was just trying to lay Moss out when he should have been wrapping him up.
Also, the last TD was made possible because Moss was on the field. Watch the replay, watch the defenders, they are so worried about Moss they ignore Anderson in the end zone.
This will happen many times this season.
