Default T.O. or Moss

From the beginning, even before this year started, I always thought Moss had more talent than T.O. Moss seems more agile, makes everything look easy. T.O. might be a bit stronger but he doesn't have the agility of Moss. Moss is just flying through the air. He is an amazing talent - thank GOD we have him and need to keep him with Brady for a long long time.

T.O. isn't as talented.

And he drops the ball more.

If they are both playing their best, it isn't even close.

Moss for me, too.

What's interesting this season is that both these guys are settled, happy and it's coming off well for their teams. TO's looked pretty formidable this also, and we've heard barely a chirp from him.

Neither one gets the credit they deserve for the mental aspect of the game. Both are very good at reading the defenses. Both know how to get open against any coverage. And both have worked hard to become very good route runners.

Moss has better hands, is much faster, taller, and explosive, and is the better athlete which allows him to make some plays that Owens simply can't. Owens appears to be the more "look at me" kind of showboat, but he's managed to stay out of legal trouble, which Moss can't say.

I think they are both in the right place.

BB wouldn't be up for TO's attitude for one.

TO does most of his damage over the middle we have that covered with Watson and Welker. Moss is a greater threat than TO on the outside.

Romo and TO seem to have great chemistry and he's the first option most plays.

Moss is just fitting in and when he's doubled Brady distributes which takes the double off of Moss and then they hit a big one. Again the chemistry seems great.

Pretty happy we have Moss, I'm sure Cowboys fans are pleased with TO right now.

There's only two conclusions for Patriots fans on rookies. They are either a bust or being fitted for their bust in Canton.

For as loud mouth as he can be, Owens will go over the middle fearlessly, he's the best blocking receiver in the league behind Hines Ward, and he isn't going to wind up in the Commissioner's office or the court room for his off the field antics. If you just need a guy to run and catch the ball I'd go with Moss, if you're looking for a guy to rely on to do everything playing the receiver position requires as far as blocking and ability to make something happen as far as YAC, I'm going with Terrell.

Oh man. T.O. isn't as good. And his attitude has always been way worse than Moss', in my opinion. It seems like it's always been "me first"...not exactly what you want on a Belichick team.

T.O. had an attitude problem on an NFC Championship team. Imagine what he would be like with the Raiders?

T.O. has his fair share of issues tho..... (directed at those you pointing out legal problems for moss)

T.O. tried to kill himself last year, and fortunately, he failed.

no, t.o. will just end up in the emergency room, getting his stomach pumped for "accidentally" taking an overdose of pain pills. give me moss.
