I remember a game early in his career, where Moss had something like 130 yards worth of defensive pass interference called against him.

I've watched Calvin Johnson a lot ... and he couldn't carry Moss's jock. If anyone thinks Calvin Johnson is comparable with Moss they have to be crazy.

Calvin Johnson is the king of garbage time. Moss always quit in garbage time...and refused to risk injuries by padding his stats.

After being elected to the Hall Of Fame yesterday...Chris Carter when asked in an interview who were the biggest influences on his career as far as players go, he gave all the credit to Warren Moon and Randy Moss.

Moss really helped Carter squeeze a few more quality years out.

Cris Carter was in his 12th year for Moss's rookie year.

People forget that Cris Carter couldn't get on the field for the Miami Dolphins in 2002. He had just 8 catches for 66 yards for the Dolphins in the 2002 season -- he only started one game and was a reserve by seasons end.

If Cris Carter was really helping Moss out so much in 2000 and 2001 ... why was he such a spectacular dud with the Miami Dolphins in 2002? The Dolphins had Chris Chambers, James McKnight, and Oronde Gadsden as their other WR's ... it's not like his competition was murderers row.

Cris Carter has always been honest about how much Moss helped prolong his career ... but people would pretend that the decrepit Cris Carter that played with Moss in Minny in 2000 and 2001 was the same Cris Carter from 1994 when he was in his prime.
