Moss. All day, everyday.

Harrison is on of the greatest receivers of all time. He also had Peyton... Wayne stepped up after. Stokes, Gonzalez, Garcon, Clark. QB's need targets and targets need QB's. I just think Moss with Peyton would demolish what Peyton did with Harrison.

I remember back in high school arguing with a teacher about Moss and Owens. I had no horse in the race but he was a 49ers and he wouldn't believe me that Moss was better. Similar numbers i think but Moss was always on par at a younger age. He's just a freak of nature. Not a lot of 6'4 guys with his speed, ability to jump and hands. Moss is something else. Would be interesting to see his success if he had Montana/Young or Peyton. Rice will always be the best but Moss with Peyton >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Harrison.

No. Brady had Belicheck. And Belicheck cheated. Don't get me wrong, Belicheck is a great coach and Brady is a good QB. But really... 3 Super Bowls by 3 points. 0 Super Bowls since. That's the difference between knowing where the blitz is coming from and if it's man or zone. Also, Patriots offense is like an upgraded version of Texas Tech. Brady sits on the bench at Michigan, Cassel on the bench at USC... what are the odds both are great in the system? It's like Kliffs Kingbury and Tyler Potts or whatever their names were. Nobody remembers Texas Tech.

Peyton runs his own offense, Brady has a coach who cheats and makes the offense easier.

Btw, Moss had Brady? For one or two years?

You're so flawed fake Miss. St. guy.

Peyton > Brady.

Moss played most of his career without Brady.

Dumb. True story... sorry.

1 or 2 years? Ha! That shows how much you know. He was on the Patriots 4 years. I accidentally liked your comment trying to quote it.

Actually more like 3. He only played 4 games of the 2010 season before the Pats traded him to Minnesota

And Brady was hurt all of 2008....so (while I'm not writing this as any sort support for anything either side) saying only 2 years with Brady is kind of understandable

Harrison had way more receptions and didn't even play as much as Moss. Moss also had Favre for a little while who who is one of, if not the greatest quarterbacks of all time.

Moss had Favre for all of a little less than 4 weeks, not much really came of those games either; moss had a great career, but his time with Favre had little to no effect on it

Strictly speaking in terms of raw ability it's Moss no questions asked.

Harrison was a great asset, but also benefited from having one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game throwing the ball to him virtually his entire career. Moss had the luxery of that too in New England, but he had already made a name for himself in Minnesota where he didn't have near as much to work with by comparison to the Patriots. Although I think Culpepper was a somewhat decent quarterback with the Vikings, Moss helped him out a bunch and was a freak during his tenure there.

Harrison is by no means a bad receiver and was a good fit in Indy......but in terms of raw talent there's just no comparison.

Moss.

However, this is a comparison. Jeff George = $1,000,000.00 arm + .10 brain

Randy Moss = $1,000,000.00 ability + .10 attitude.
