Randy Moss is Back!
During the www.touchdownskills.com fantasy football draft this week, I decided to jump on Randy Moss in the fourth round. During that selection my competitors gave me a look like, “why the heck are you wasting a good pick on a washed up receiver” while at the same time others were looking nervously and saying to themselves, “is he going to be a sleeper during this years draft?” Well after today’s performance in the Meadowlands against the New York Jets it looks like the pick was an absolute steal.
Upon debuting with the New England Patriots, Moss not only looked like a fantasy football stud but he looked like much of the same player he was when he played with the Vikings. At the end of the day he finished with 183 yards receiving with a touchdown. The scary thing is that Moss doesn’t look like he is going to slow down.
In fact I believe he is going to have the best year of his career. Not only does he have a one of the best QB’s in the league throwing to him, but also Moss has a supporting case that he has never had in his career. He has a reliable running back (Moroney) that can hold the safeties in play action because of his running ability, which in result will open up the top of coverage’s. But he also has a solid receiving corp. that has to make the defensive secondary play completely honest every down. With the combination of Watson (TE) and Stallworth (WR) each defense secondary is going to have to play a ton of zone in order to avoid 1 on 1 match ups with Moss. Obviously when an offense can dictate the game plan of opposing defenses you have a formula of domination by the Pats but also for their main playmaker, Randy Moss. Expect more of the same from him for weeks to come!
