His reign is ended because Moss broke his record in the 4th quarter if the 16th game of the year?
In case you didn't know, Rice got the record in 12 games.
Rice would have had 30 TDs if the season wasn't cut short

Rice was good, but I'll take Moss.

 

[651akathepaul]

lets look at it this way fellas....rice vs the db's he faced back when, and vs. them now...hes still great right? well put moss against those same db'sin the 80's and early to mid 90's and moss still does what he does, but probably more

i hate to sound like im discrediting rice, but moss has him...im sorry..more talent...and dont give me the class act crap, cause moss is a class act as long ashes on a winner..well rice was never on a bad team for us to see how it really could be with him

Are You Kidding Me?????????????????????
DBs were WAYYYY more physical back then.
DBs can't even touch WRs today

 

[Chester McFloppy]

The records do not lie.

Moss took one. He has 20+ more to go. End of discussion.

u do know that rules are in place now which make things easier for the WR right? Things were a little different back when Rice was in his prime.

i hate to sound like im discrediting rice, but moss has him...im sorry..more talent...and dont give me the class act crap, cause moss is a class act as long as hes on a winner..well rice was never on a bad team for us to see how it really could be with him


you are discrediting Rice....out of curiosity, how old are you? No one is disputing the talent, because Randy Moss is in a class of his own, but at the end ofthe day I am taking Rice....no need to get redundant, but check what Chester McFloppy posted then get back to me....

EDIT wrong thread

as long as hes on a winner?

more talent =/= better player.

 

[antoekneeo]

I hate when stuff like this comes up because more often than not posters show their age and/or ignorance with some of the statements they make. Jerry Rice isthe unquestioned greatest WR of all time, it's not an opinion it's a fact. As for Moss congrats to him for having the most td receptions in a singleseason. I do not know why people cannot give Moss his props without trying to slight Rice and vice versa. What Rice did in 12 games was incredible and whatMoss did this season was incredible as well. Please people stop saying "most talented= best, because the two things are not mutually exclusive. Rice byhis own admission was never the fastest, nor the tallest but his worth ethic and production were second to none thus making him the best.

 

[651akathepaul]

yeah...you heard me man...haha..whats your rebuttle?

 

[shuges]

I'm pretty sure if you ask NFL coaches and players (current and former), who is/was the better receiver, I'm willing to bet that 95% will say JERRYRICE.

It's only armchair quarterbacks and youngsters on NT that genuinely think Moss > Rice.

 

[j rain 23]

anything rice could do moss can do better.

Jerry Rice played for 20 years without quitting on his team. can moss beat that?

 

[TheGift23]

Appreciated.

 

[bkmac]

have 2 of the greatest QB's of all time throwing at you...
If you can't catch the ball, it doesn't matter who the QB is. Sure, your QB has to be able to get the ball to you in the right spot, butif you just can't hold onto the ball and make the catch...
