The trade: Raiders get Randy Moss for the #7 pick in the draft, Napolean Harris, and a late round pick.

The result: 4-12 then 2-14 before Moss is shipped out of town for a 4th rounder.

Easy there princess.

The Raiders offensive line couldn't hold a block long enough for the quarterback to complete his seven step drop while still on his feet.

Maybe if Moss was actually running his patterns instead of jogging them the quarterback wouldn't have had to take a seven step drop.

The offensive coordinator was off in Montana running a bed and breakfest for the last several years and insisted on a seven step drop.

That was the most inept offensive I've ever seen that year. They had turnstiles for offensive lineman.

People forget that Moss was on pace for a 2K yard recieving season before injuring his hamstring in his first year with the Raiders .. and he was basically a decoy for much of the rest of the season after that.

It's hard to run effective routes when you can't run. His teammates were so impressed by his remarkable display of courage that year ... that he was voted a captain for the first time in his career the following season.

A showing of such courage as the one Moss displayed all through his first season in Oakland hadn't been seen until Atomic Rain finished 4th in the Wood Memorial this year.

I googled Randy Moss traffic stop to relive the heroics of his Minneapolis "bump" of a traffic chick, but got this much more interesting find instead..
