Remember his knee got shredded. Sure, he was never a great passer but the combination of running and throwing made him highly effective for a while. To say he was never any good? That is harsh. One receiever isnt going to get a QB those kind of numbers. He had to possess some kind of skill.

Drugs has an unhealthy obsession with Randy Moss, so of course the idea that anyone throwing to him had talent is blasphemy. Culpepper was a good QB before the knee injury. Without mobility he got scared while having to sit in the pocket and was no longer effective. Losing Moss of course didn't help.

What I don't get it why would he retire? So he's eligible for the HOF sooner where he'll never get a vote? Isn't it easier to stay unretired and hope someone gets desperate and throws a million at you?

He's not retired. He's a drama queen who loves sending mass e-mails for attention.

You really think Favre knows how to send an e-mail?

Good point, but would have have really thought Culpepper knew how to send one? Maybe that is what their agents are for, they don't seem to do much else but give bad advice and then take a cut.

He played 7 games after he ran Moss out of Minnesota AND before the injury to his knee.

He had the lowest passer rating of his entire career - he threw 6 TD's versus 12 INT's lost 3 fumbles and his team, who had won a playoff game the year prior, was 1-6 at the time he went down.

The '98 Vikings, a 15-1 team, had the highest scoring offense in NFL history and held it for nine years. Moss caught 17 TD's from a decrepid Randall Cunningham that year.

The '07 Patriots, a 16-0 team, broke the '98 Vikings record for the highest scoring offense in NFL history. Moss caught 23 TD passes from Tom Brady, and Brady almost doubled his career best prior year for TD passes.

However, the most brillaint achievement of Randy's career was not that, or the 53 TD passes he caught in just two years of college - it was the fact that he fooled so many people into thinking Culpepper was a good NFL quarterback for five straight years.
