Comments on: Romanowski: Randy Moss had alligator arms http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/02/04/romanowski-randy-moss-had-alligator-arms/ ProFootballTalk on NBCSports.com Sat, 25 May 2013 11:15:12 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: jcuzzy1 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/02/04/romanowski-randy-moss-had-alligator-arms/#comment-2319261 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 19:01:11 +0000 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1707042#comment-2319261 I don’t think I’ve ever read so much BS in my life. My biggest surprise is the amount of people who agree with the article. Whatever you think about Randy Moss to suggest it was remotely possible to get close to that ball is incredible. I doubt Labron James on a ladder would have gotten near that throw. All this “didn’t even try BS” if the ball is miles over your head what is the point jumping? Nobody jumps or dives for the ball when it’s that far. People need to find another scapegoat or at least find a reason to hate on Moss that is a bit more credible.

So its not like it was just “one play”.

Wake up! You wanted him to show effort for that pass? Go ahead and excuse Collin for his mediocre play..and I dont even like Moss!

Terrell Owens may have been a diva, but he never let it keep him from producing.

Moss, live under the delusion you’re better than Rice, but allow us to spit on the floor in protest.

I’d take Cris Carter over him right now. He’ll catch anything.

When I saw that pass, I had the same impression as Romanowski.

But let’s assume for a second that Moss could have done something, is it really worth making a huge deal about? Him jumping in the air wouldn’t have prevented Jones from running back a TD or the SF secondary giving up ridiculous plays. And Ravens didn’t even end up scoring on that drive.

I get that media people don’t like Randy Moss, but let’s be fair here.

He was wide open in back of ends one on one play. On another he was open on a skinny post route. Colin made some bad choices yes n there was bad play calling

After all that 49ers still had chances to win. U don’t run the clock down to 2 min when ur trailing. Ur job is to score u can’t control if it’s quick or fast. U have to score Play of the game was Ed reed catching n knocking gore out at 7yd line

If that had been thrown even close to him, he would have caught it and had room to run.

Leaping into the air for a competely uncatchable ball is a good way to get oneself killed in a hurry.

Easy for everyone to say he should have tipped it or jumped. Randy Moss is an elite WR and he deserves more credit then he gets. This is a story??

The thing is, by doing nothing it gave Ed Reed a clear vision on where the ball is going. In some cases if a player goes up and “tries” it disrupts the timing a little. So even though, yes it was high, by not trying it at the very least gave Ed Reed clear vision.

That should put an end to that argument

I won 500 bucks taking the Ravens and the points. The only reason I took them was because you play for the 49ers.Your a loser and will never be on a winner. Your not even top 25 WR all time. You don’t block, sell routed, or go over the middle. Great deep ball horible at everything else. Your lack of effort and work ethic show why you don’t get it. Your attitude kills teams

What a joyous premonition!!!!!!

Manute Bol couldn’t have caught that pass. I think those who are criticizing Moss for that play are just looking for a scapegoat.

He and Heath Evans were both very stupid and continue to be to think that he is as good as he used to be!!! He’s 35 years old and people of that age cannot have hops or leap super high anymore!!!

No wonder why they’re both hated on TV and out of football!!

I blame the sorry 9ers for putting ANY faith in that clown, you bought it and got exactly what you paid for. As shown last pm in your LOSS.

The old man is WORTHLESS!
