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.
Very good point. To add, I think T.O. (disclaimer: not a big fan) is the epitome of hard work, overall, to maximize talent. TO would be nothing more than an average/above average receiver without it.
I've loved Moss from the beginning, including his off-field guff, and am beyond elated that he is a Pat and killing it so far. I don't get the impression that Randy has ever really had to work himself to death (purely physically) to be elite. He simply is and, his hands compared TO, please.
Your point about their mental work, however, is one that more people should acknowledge. It is what makes them special. Hell, the difference between the best and the PS is, what, 10%, 15%?
Randy Moss + Brady from 2003 on? Best ever? It's a possibilty. We'll see what it is this year.
