Lito is one of the best corners in the game and I've always said that if you hit Moss and Jam him at the line he can be taken out of the game. That's why I laughed when people say it's easier to take TO out of a game than Moss, It's not TO is physical and will battle any CB that challenges him. TO, 90% of the time will get off the jam and run a crossing or slant that nets him YAC. Moss can't, you see that if you're physical with Moss he can't hurt you but with TO it's more difficult because you can line him up anywhere on the field. People talk about Moss has better hands, he does, but TO has the intangibles. Heart. So when Moss can't streak down the field wide open for a TD he isn't productive. I think Moss is a great WR I just have to question the people who say he's head and shoulders better than TO, he's not, they're equally talented. Moss has hands, speed, Leaping ability, while TO has strength, Size, toughness.
When TO went up against LIto he had 10 catches, 172 yards 1 td. He was jammed at the line of scrimmage but managed to break away most of the time. He's more physical than Moss could ever be. But that blueprint is wack because the pats will go 19-0 and win the superbowl so it's actually a mute point.

Moss was doubled, Moss was mugged, Moss was held, Moss pulled a TO and dropped some passes. Lito cannot shut down Moss man to man without help, sorry.
You are right about TO and Moss in the sense that Moss isn't as strong as TO but that's it.

Moss was open on almost every play this game...the only reason he didnt put up TO type numbers is b/c brady didnt have enuff time to deliver him the ball, LOL
also, there are flags called against the cbs that cover TO, aparently Moss doenst have the luxury of geting penalties called on his defenders

1) Try watching the game again, sober this time, and you'll see that Lito should probably by Moss some flowers for all but raping him last night. I've never seen anyone get away with more holding and mugging then that.
2) You still lost, so it don't matter

Moss dropped a deep ball..a TD called back..Moss's #s would've looked a lot better. Yes they frustrated Moss but Moss always got inside and Lito grabbed him by jersey..1 time even pulling it off and saw the shoulder pad. Lito also was making contact pass 5 yards. He played him better than other teams..but he was allowed to be so aggresive because
a. he had help
b. refs werent paying attention to contact
we didnt send Moss deep often because we knew what you were giving and we werent getting enough time to set up a deep pass. again..with you doubling Moss, we got Welker matched up 1on1 with Gaither and Hanson and it was over.
Moss constantly ran little in routes for like 5-8 yards and i wasnt a fan of it. I understand they respect your D but like Colts..you can pass deep verse even the better team secondaries..we were cautious..i wanted us to be aggressive and attack like we did in end of Colts game
