Yes - he was playing with a bad hammy - Philly had three of their four starters in the secondary selected to the Pro Bowl that year - and Johnson (who has always called great games against Moss) had his gameplan focused around Moss.

That is truly an all-time dumb example. The week before, Moss was hobbling around the field the entire game- and still caught two big TD passes in a road playoff win over Green Bay at Lambeau.

As for Welker being more valuable - prior to this year - he had a grand total of ONE career NFL touchdown catch...and the Dolphins didn't let him go because it would have taken a lot of money to sign him ... and certainly not because he was a precieved cancer.

Welker has been "covered" by #3 corners, or safeties, or linebackers for much of the year. He's doing a great job of exploiting those mismatches - but he's no superstar.
