Cowboy Killer

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Moss: 7
Cowboys: 0

When Randy Moss breaks the huddle and jogs to the line of scrimmage, he won't see Mike Jenkins or Terence Newman across from him.

He'll see his mother's face.

Maxine Moss isn't into sports. She is into what makes her son happy. It tore her apart to see how depressed Randy was after the Cowboys failed to draft him.

The look on Maxine's face that evening more than 12 years ago is burned in the son's memory.

"Just seeing her facial expression and how she looked, I really took that to heart, man," Moss said. "I told myself any time I play the Dallas Cowboys, I'm never going to forget that look."

Moss is difficult enough to defend when he hasn't been slighted. Bring his mother into it and...

Well, you get 734 yards and 11 touchdowns in seven career games against Dallas. All 7 wins.

He's 5-0 against the Cowboys while playing for the Vikings.

1-0 while playing for the Raiders.

1-0 while playing for the Pats.

He's beat them in the regular season and the playoffs.

In six of the seven games - his team beat Dallas by double digit points - the only time it wasn't double digits was when he was with the Raiders.

He avg's 1.57 TD's a game against the Cowboys and over 100+ yards a game. They lied to him and said they'd draft him just two days before the draft - they passed on him and started his unprobable slide.
