September 10, 2007: Randy Moss is Alive and Well

Randy Moss is Alive and Well

Earlier this year, the Oakland Raiders traded Randy Moss to the New England Patriots for the 110th selection in the 2007 NFL Draft. With that pick, the Raiders chose Cincinnati Bearcats cornerback John Bowie, who despite being active on Sunday failed to record a single tackle. Moss, on the other hand, looked like he was once again the best receiver in the league. Advantage: Patriots.

It appears Randy Moss feels very comfortable having Tom Brady throw to him. The new tandem connected 9 times for 183 yards and a TD against the New York Jets in the season opener. The Pats went on to a 38-14 win, sending a message to the league that New England is again a powerhouse. So I am guessing who throws you the ball does affect how you play? While in Oakland, Moss looked to be an average receiver, dropping passes and failing to split secondaries. That was not the case today. Some think Moss will become a cancer in NE, but if the ways of the Patriots locker room keep him straight (or he gets his touches), this could become a record setting combination.
