Moss MUST come in, shut up, and play hard. If he does, it was the steal of the decade, if he does not, we lose a 4th.

The potential for this offense is scary. Moss and Stallworth will open up the deep and intermediate game like we have never seen here. What you may not get with them, (the Branch/Brown underneath routes with rac) comes from Welker, Caldwell, Gaffney, Jackson, and/or Washington.
Oh, and what does this open up for the freakish receiving ability of Ben Watson?

The threats of receivers probably does more for Maroney in the running game than upgrading the OL would have.
The potential of this offense is the scariest I've seen in Pats history.

nonsense, ask philly if TO was worth the trouble.

Invalid comparison. The jury has long ago returned a guilty verdict on TO; Moss is just impatient with mediocrity. Even some of the complaints against him coming out of college seem almost quaint by today's standards--he accosted a racist and smoked some marijuana, which has been the case with a lot of the draftees today. And if they've come clean about it, it hasn't generally been to their detriment.

TO has severe problems, ask some of his former teammates like Donovan McNabb. On the other hand, Kerry Collins has nothing but high praise for Moss.

Predition: Moss will light up the league this year, scoring 17 TDs.
