Randy returned kick and punts when he was younger.
It wasn't very often though, only when the Vikes felt they needed a big play.

Don't know who's doing your maths but it definitely isn't 1/3 of a football game. Generally way less than a 1/4
Difference with him and Devin Hester is Tate is actually a WR, and not doing too much by having to learn the position aswell, after being drafted as a CB!
It would be foolish to take Tate away from kick returns. He has returned 3 kick off returns for a TD in 8 games, which is including preseason. I honestly think that we may be a 2-2 team at best if not for that. This wouldn't keep him from still playing WR but I don't see it as a full time thing. I expect the running game to be a larger part of our offensive game plan with the way BJGE has performed and unlike last year where we didn't have a threat at TE, we do have one this year. We we rely more on our TE's now and slow ball control down the field, like in the dolphins game. I think we may be better off with Moss gone and I think most of us will be very surprised at this.
HELLO HERNANDEZ! We will be seeing a ton more of him and the rest of the TE's in there.
It all comes down to the offensive line...not BJGEDo you really think BJGE will be able to do much of anything against Pitt,Balt or SD coming up?.....I don't expect that,it will be a Brady air festival to which I hope he can hit on those secondaries and Tate will need to respond to his 'elevated level' status.

Yes, I do think that BJGE will continue to perform well. Dolphins do not have a bad defense and he ran well against them. Also, Airing it down-field to Moss seemed to be either hit or miss, it just wasn't consistent. I don't think that he was as important as most thought he was. Just look at the production this season. I know that people will tell me all this crap about him stretching the field and whatnot but People will be surprised at what Tate will do.
When we played the Jets there were many passes for Moss and it was a Disaster. After watching the Dolphins game I believe that running the ball more and executing play action will be a larger factor. Throwing to Moss has recently been usually just an incomplete pass and then before you know it we're punting the ball. We may not stretch the field as much but there will still be many mismatches and to keep them guessing BJGE must do good.

if he gets hurt, he gets hurt... you can get hurt at anytime, and if you play football you can't prevent it other than not playing at all...
