He started rocking the boat right after the win against Cincy at his post game conference. He will surely be missed, no doubt about it, but the Pats won Super Bowls with a lot less.
As far as Randy Moss not giving a total effort is not true. Just because he didn't rack up a lot of catches so far this season, he was in on the most offensive plays next to Brady. Just having him on the field opens a lot of other options.
Now, if the Vikings give Randy another contract, Brett can come out of retirement 4 more times. ;D ;D ;D
Good luck, Randy.
Moss did not play to his highest potential every play.
I can recall a lot of times where after he got hit by a corner he would just stop.
He wasn't motivated to play with the Pats and it showed. If you get paid that much, you better try.
I'm not saying that he didn't help the team, I am saying that he could have been a bigger help.
Moss throughout his career and including his time with the Pats was the deep threat. In that roll he is sprinting down the field for much of the game opening up much of the field for others. I would think that as the game went on he may have gotten tired and would be criticized of "taking plays off". IMHO, he did that when plays were called and designed when he wasn't an option and was able to conserve energy.
I am not trying to defend Randy Moss. He had his share of bad games, but so do all athletes in sports and human beings in general.
