    Who is the best WR in the NFL??

    I think it is a tie between Torry Holt and Marvin Harrison. I picked them because they are team players unlike Moss, and Owens. Holt spilts time with Issac Bruce who was #5 in recieveing yards, and Holt doesnt do things that anger his teammates. Harrison does everything you want of him. He make huge catches when needed.

    I say Moss simply because no one is more dangerous than him at that posistion. I know a lot of Moss haters are going to come and bring him down but you can't say you don't fear him everytime he steps on the field. Every Packer fan on here should say Moss is the best, otherwise imagine what Marvin,Torry, TO or whoever you say could do to us then. Just a thought there.

    Also Chad Johnson is a better wideout than both Javon Walker(only one good year) and Derrick Mason. Mason is a solid but he isn't a playmaker like C. Johnson.

    Without a doubt, Moss is the most talented and best WR. He is less of a cancer than most people think, and is overall a good guy with some personal issues. But rather than getting into that old discussion, there are a few other receivers that deserve some attention.

    Andre Johnson is quickly becoming a favorite of mine. TO is also extremely dangerous as is Chad Johnson. I don't rank Harrison as high due to the fact that he is not big play like the rest of these guys (personal preference, nothing more), although Harrison is one of the more complete receivers.

    i agree with VF, moss is definatly the most talented and the most dangerous WR in the game. SI did a good article on him, u'd be surprised where he lives, between senior citizens and his hobby is fishing. none of the senior citizens complain. again i agree with VF, but other than that he is definatly the most talented

    Terrell Owens. I admire the heart he had going into the SB game still coming off an injury and playing as well as he did for his team. Randy Moss is a very close 2nd, and its difficult to choose between the two. In the end though I'm going with TO being the better WR.

    In 2003 when they were all healthy,
    TO had 80 catches for 1102 yards and 9 TDs
    Holt had 117 catches for 1696 and 12 TDS
    Moss 111 catches for 1632 and 17 TDs
    Harrison 94 catches 1272 yards 10 TDs

    TO is at the bottom of the List. Holt was even hurt but played through the pain all year and put up those numbers

    Thats only one years stats though, it doesn't mean he isn't the better WR. TO is #1 IMO, although Moss is right up there with him. Holt and Harrison are great WR's, don't get me wrong but I don't think they're better than TO or Moss even. They have better attitudes than TO and Moss but if we're talking on the field play, its got to be TO for #1.

    What makes TO such a better wideout than Moss? JustBry07. I want to see you back this up because you haven't provided any info except a SB that TO got to play in and Moss never got that shot yet.

    Did you not read the other post where I said Moss was a close 2nd and its hard to choose between the two? They are pretty similar in skill. I just personally like TO better than Moss as a player, its a matter of opinion. TO and Moss' stats aren't much different, TO's has more yards and TD's but he also has two more years experience. TO just plays the game with more heart than Moss, this was brought up by DolfanDale in another thread and I completely agree with that. I think thats the one thing that Moss is lacking but TO has heart which sets him apart from Moss, and makes him the full package on the field.

    I don't like how people say Moss don't have a heart. Which is a false statement. If he didn't have a heart he wouldn't of broke down on the deat of Korey Stringer. If he didn't have a heart he wouldn't play the game it's self. Moss is the most misjudge player I have ever seen to play. I would take Moss over TO simply because no one can match the talent of Randy Moss. I rather have Marvin Harrison on my team but Moss is more talented.

    Moss sure showed a lot of heart when he decided to walk off the field before the game ended last season because his team was losing though right? Giving up and walking off on his team, that shows no heart and he definitely didn't seem to give a shit about his teammates. Breaking down from a death and playing with heart on the field are two completely different things, I'm not saying the guy doesn't have feelings, if someone dies then I would hope he could show some heart.

    With Moss and TO, you got two excellent football players with a lot of BS that comes along with their talent. It's choosing between two evils really and in the end its probably best to have neither of them. Even though I'm saying TO is better, I would take Moss over TO only because TO has ruined the image I had of him before all this crybaby BS thats going on now.

    Alright Moss has never held out. Moss is misunderstood a lot. Yes walking off was a horrible thing to do but when you have all the talent the Vikes got and you continue to choke it starts to get to you. He was frustrated and walked off. People do crazy things when they are frustrated and he did that. He thought the season was all over. He didn't know the scores of the other games. It was a dumb move on his part but look what he does on the field. If he plays long enough he will give Jerry Rice's records a run.

    I'm not arguing that what Moss does on the field is great, you're right. Moss is a great talent, and he has the potential to be one of the best ever. Both TO and Moss are idiots in their own ways, lets leave it at that. I've just always liked TO as a player so he's got my vote on this one.
