Reading some of these comments about Moss tearing the secondary apart is laughable and a joke…first of all the packers had a good draft and they now have the players to put pressure on the QB which takes me to my second point…you need a QB to get the ball to Moss you fools and if Alex is all you have to offer is a joke lolol…Frank Gore is the only player the Packers need to worry about…so for the moron who said he will be laughing through out the game will be laughing at his own remarks lololol.

Your not going to stop the Packers offense and the Defense will hold there own.

Randy Moss will play a huge role in this game and may end up with only 2-3 catches for 30 yards. He was brought in specifically to loosen defenses and open up space for Frank Gore, who’s been running against 8-man boxes for years, and Vernon Davis, whose productivity has been limited by extra blocking duties. With the addition of Moss, and a solidified o-line, the 49er offense will no longer be a weakness, and by the end of the season, when Smith has developed rapport with all of his weapons, it will be darn-near dominating. At this juncture of the season expect a great game, possibly the best game of the NFL season between two heavyweights. A treat for all NFL fans!

Moss will open up the middle of the field for davis and gore. I sure can live with that. Smith can throw the deep ball, just ask the saints.. The pass to davis before the winning td was perfect. Should be a great game, go niners!

Some people on here are so amusing. Thinking the Packers’ D is horrible. Allow me to enlighten you. First of all, the Packers’ D was ranked #14 in points allowed before a meaningless game against the Lions where they sat their starters, dropping them to #19. They were tied #1 in turnovers, and #2 in opposing QB rating. YARDS DON’T MEAN ANYTHING.

Anybody that thinks a washed up Randy Moss is going to do anything against the Packers is a fool, he will be lucky to reach 50yds.

Alex Smith cannot throw a deep ball to save his life. In this preseason, I can think of 2-3 times when he over threw Moss. I feel really sorry for Moss. He should have joined Carolina. Newton would have set the world on fire with Moss. Too bad.

This is the match-up of the weekend. 2 teams that have a bad taste in their mouth after last year. Questions: What is the identity of GBs DEF? Are they the ball hawking top5 from 2 years ago or the used and abused DEF from last year? Can the 49ers open up that offense and get all these new weapons involved? Sooooo ready for Sunday!!!!!!!!

As for the haters…. You keep posting the same unoriginal garbage. Try thinking for yourself. You’re probably not capable though. Awwwww. Sorry.

Just the threat of a deep post for Randy opens the cross for Crabs and the sideline for Vernon.

My biggest concern isn’t if Moss will show up, but if Smith will be able to get him the ball.

Even if Randy Moss still has the speed and gets wide open look whos throwing the ball. Guarantee Alex Smith can’t connect. Hes awful.

Our secondary isn’t that awful….
Our Secondary led the league in takeaways in spite of the anemic pass rush…. We got some young guys back there now and some dudes up front who could rush the pocket better than who we had last year…. just saying, don’t sleep on a defense that was no. 2 only 2 years ago.

Expect what he’s delivered for 15 years. If the ball’s not coming to him, he will show no interest and will dog it.

By: deltaoracle

Double him for awhile if necessary; the Randy Moss we’ve all known for the past ten years will lose interest in all the proceedings pretty quickly.

If Moss can take the top off the opposing defenses he will have done wonders for the 49ers. But I would love if he absolutely beasts it obviously.

I have a feeling we will be seeing the Randy Moss that played for the Vikings, Raiders and Patriots, not the Titans. Expect 7-8 receptions and 1-2 touchdowns for Moss. He will have single coverage now and then, which he will use to his advantage. Remember, age ain’t nothing but a number.

I really can’t wait until the Packers shutup these overzealous 49ers fans. Your team was a flash in the pan and on Sunday they’re going up against the best offense, maybe ever… Y’all are gonna get blown out.

Wow no comments about Alex Smith yet? Well since the other post is littered with them I’ll just save some time. Alex will not have a problem getting the ball down the field for Moss….. Anyone to actually pay attention vs just blab in ignorance would know Smith’s problem has always been overthrowing deep balls. Usually in partial credit to slow receivers. He consistently can hit Ginn deep which unfortunately Teddy has hands of granite, and he always finds Davis. Nobody knows what Randy will still bring but I tell you what I got chills when they asked him if he could still perform and his response was “JUST WAIT” Randy with a chip on the shoulder can be a very dangerous thing and he is still faster than at least 85% of the WR’s in the league. Also on one final note, all those saying the Packers secondary is horrible are nuts. They gave up a lot of yards, but they were often playing with big leads and limited pass rush. If I’m not mistaken they also forced the most turnovers in the league. You can’t sleep on Woodson and Williams.

Will you see the Randy that moons the Packers after a game winning TD (2004 Playoffs) or the Randy that short arms a game winning pass in the end zone at the end of the game (2010 Regular Season).

Every time a visiting team visits Green Bay, the fans moon them when they pass by the team’s bus. It’s been going on for decades. They moon everyone. Randy caught a TD and FAKE mooned them back. Big deal. I thought it was funny then, and still think its funny now. Next time this story gets mentioned don’t forget the classic:

“Straight Cash, Homie!”

___________________________

I thought it was hilarious too. In fact, I was more offended by Joe Buck’s idiotic reaction to it than anything else. Guy drives me nuts to this day, and that’s where it started. People were just mad Randy just scored on the Packers, not that he fake mooned everyone.

Alexis Smith can’t throw the ball far enough to make Moss effective.

This will be a GREAT game between two very well coached teams who will show great power offense AND defense. The Pack drafted almost exclusively ALL defense this last draft and the 49ers did a major overhaul on the WR corp. Nearly every national ‘expert’ out there is saying almost nothing about backup running back Kendall Hunter who will actually see, likely, as many snaps if not more than Gore. Imagine a 290 lb Will Tukuafu taking reps as a Full-Back running behind those hogs!

Just gonna be an amazing game! Good luck Packers fans

I remember Mr. Revis saying he could handle him just a year ago and got SMOKED !! Faked a pulled hamstring , brain aneurism etc, after Moss crossed the goal post and the rest was history. Yeah, no one can remember the performance, give me a break !!!

If his performance for us (Titans) is any indication, then he’s been done for two years now. However, from what we’ve seen of his shameful work ethic the past 15 years, maybe that was just Randy being Randy.

I would love to see Randy have a game against them like it was 1998 all over again. That would be soooo sweet! One-fitty & three, that would be perfect.

Superbowl Homeboy!!

Strait Cash Homey…

I love watching moss, hopefully he moons the crowd again… That was a great day to be a Vikings Fan (we don’t have not to many of those days anymore) This will be a great game, If the 49ers use Moss to pick apart the secondary of the Packers they’ll win for sure…

I love how people say that GB has a terrible secondary.

Tramon Williams played all last year with a shoulder injury, and the starting safety was injured in week 1.

Combined with that, the Packers couldn’t get much pressure on the QB.

The Packers Secondary will be just fine, and the pass rush will be much better. That said, Randy Moss will probably catch a ball or two.

Too bad he’ll need to catch about 15 to keep up with the Packers offense.

The one in particular keeps coming back to mind, the January, 2005 game in which he faux-mooned the crowd.

That was when Joe Buck when into histrionics over the so-called “mooning” as if it were the most pornographic act he had ever witnessed.

Then again, it is Joe Buck – it actually may have been the most pornographic act he had ever witnessed.
