Re: If Randy Moss had been a Pat since 2001 would he have been better than Jerry Rice
I can't believe this is even a discussion. Did you people not see Jerry Rice play in his prime???? This is a guy who scored 22 touchdowns in 12 games and also averaged 115 yards a game receiving in a season.
Rice's numbers are superior, his accomplishments in terms of contributing to championships, MVPs, Pro Bowls, All Decade teams etc are superior and Moss' attitude issues alone are enough to drop him below Rice even if everything else was equal.
Moss will have to repeat his numbers of his first ten seasons of his career for the next 10 years to be in Jerry Rice territory. That will be impossible for him to do as he ages.
It's not even close.
What Moss could have an argument for is that, in his prime, he was probably the best game changing receiver in nfl history. All things being equal, I may take the '98-'03 Moss over Jerry Rice.
