the only thing that will prevent Moss from winning Comeback Player of the Year is injuries.
but with so much depth at WR, time to heal up shouldn’t be a problem.
Still can’t believe the negative comments coming from media and fans against all the upside.
For example, only Randy Moss can have his worst season of his career and still add to his highlight reel. check it out. the one handed grab v. Revis and the Jets, and another TD v. the Jets; catching Favre’s 500th career TD and then his last catch w/ Titans along sidelines. watch that one and decide if Moss couldn’t get it done. that play was incredible.

Randy Moss is a diva, and he’s five years older that he was in 2007, and Alex Smith is no Tom Brady. Sorry, Niners fans, this isn’t gonna work out for you.

Randy I know you read this stuff do your job as a complete receiver run hard, block,catch, score TDs and distract the other team and with hard work the 49ers and you will have a ring. The past is history the present is a gift and the future is a mystery that’s up to you to show the world you can play…. Your are 49ers now let’s do this!

Get that ring, Randy. You were never going to win one in New England, the new CHOKERS of the NFL.

With so many WRs (I expect 6 to make the team) there will be a ton of different formations and packages. Randy will have to block and go hard on every snap or he will find himself on the outside looking in. Jim Harbaugh’s strong personality won’t allow for one diva to drive a wedge in this team (see Braylon Edwards 2011). Randy’s success or failure is completely up to Randy.

Maybe Randy should hit ‘The Hill’ with Jerry and the Rookie. I hope Randy does well just to prove Cris Carter hopelessly wrong. (Hate that guy.)

Yeah, the Vikings and Titans said the same thing a couple years ago.

I wouldnt be surprised to see him get off to a good start especially with SF’s running game and Vernon Davis taking an immense amount of pressure off of him. However, father time is undefeated, and Randy is 35 years old and hasnt played football in over year. Furthermore, he hasnt been an effective football player in about 2 years. I think that over the course of the season he will wear down and become a non-factor come playoff time.

Of course his teammates are going to say he looks great, what would you expect them to say. We will see when the season starts, odds are against him

There hasn’t been much question about Moss’s ability to get open and catch the ball.

The real issue is what he does on the other 55-65 offensive plays when the ball isn’t coming in his direction. Moss has never relished the “decoy” role and he’s no Hines Ward when it comes to blocking. In fact, he’s not even a DeSean Jackson when it comes to blocking.

It’s underwear football time. Let’s wait and see what happens when the games count.

When Alex Smith doesn’t get him the ball because the team is pounding the ball over and over, we will see if Moss will be good little soldier. Or if Smith underthrows a deep ball or throws a slant behind him, will he start yelling at anyone who will listen.

Ahem, which old Moss? The Vikings’ Moss, who dominated? Or the Raiders’ Moss, who was a loser, a cancer and a quitter? Or the Patriots’ Moss, who dominated, then got run out of town when he got too full of himself? Or the Moss who got unceremoniously waived by Minnesota (take 2) and Tennessee? Or the take-the-year-off Moss?

He’s a crapshoot, at best; nothing more. I give his chances for success about a 3 of a 1-10 scale.

After the referee’s made it open season on Moss while he was with the Raiders (Chargers game), Moss lost all desire to play. The Raiders would have been lucky to get a six-pack let alone a 4th rounder for that version of Moss.

If they could have landed Peyton, you could have penciled them in for the next 3 superbowls.

Moss has a bit if a chip on his shoulder.

My favorite football player. He’s a day older than me and he’s the only African American redneck playing football that I know of. War Randy Moss
