Renegade7 Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 I watched the Rams/Skins preseason game, just like the rest of us. I'm telling you, Holt ripped up that vinilla D like it was nothing. You can't go easy on Torry Holt, but my kept insisting that Randy Moss was better. I wasn't going to debate him, because in all honesty, I believe he's right. What do ya'll think? Randy or Torry?

SKINtil8tin Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Gotta go with Randy. He's the total package as far as wide receivers go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Moss hands down. He also gets an edge on the guy who throws the ball to him is Culpepper, compared to Bulger/Holt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordaniners Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Holt is a product of a system...you guys had your corners playing so tentatively so all he had to do was run his little route, stop, and come back to the ball. Nothing special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Made Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Moss beats him out a little. Holt is not gettin his props on here though, the man had the most catches and most yards last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordaniners Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 comparing the two is criminal. Moss is the king of the deep ball and tied with Owens for the best big-play receiver in NFL history. One play and it's an 80 yard touchdown. Torry Holt doesn't give you that. When's the last time Torry has scored a touchdown off of a bomb or taken one to the house from even a fairly long way away from the endzone? Sorry, but it goes Owens, Moss, and then everyone else.

You can't be serious, he only took one to the house... how long ago? uh tonight. Holt had a 1700 yard season last year, Owens best was 1450 yards, and he has been decling each year for the past 4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhd24 Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Owens isn't even in the top 5 of receivers. I'd rate them: 1) Moss 2) Harrison 3) Holt 4) Ward 5) Chad Johnson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Holt is a more skilled receiver in terms of route running and even catching. But, Moss is a better receiver in terms of sheer, unmatched talent. Moss changes games with speed and explosiveness no one can match. It's like a big-play defender like Deion. Others may have been as good from a technique standpoint, but, teams feared Deion because he altered how games were played out of respect for his ability to make plays. Holt will catch 110 balls for 1,400 yards and probably surpass Moss in at least two if not three receiving categories. But, in the end, teams fear the game-changing ability Moss has that no one can touch, so, he alters games in a way Holt doesn't. I put Harrison first, followed by Moss, then Holt in the pecking order of the league's best three receivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordaniners Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Uh, no he didn't, he was caught from behind at the 2. Holt is not a game changing receiver like Owens and Moss are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rate them: 1) Moss 2) Harrison 3) Holt 4) Ward 5) Chad Johnson Johnson needs to prove his skills for another year, and teams don't fear Ward like they do T.O. I'd say the top four are pretty firmly entrenched this year. My order would be Moss, Harrison, Holt, Owens, Ward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonJeremy Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Moss is the man...IMO IF he doesn't implode he will be the biggest playmaker ever to play WR...but that is a big IF! :2cents: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidPennSkin Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Originally posted by Jordaniners Uh, no he didn't, he was caught from behind at the 2.

skinsfan51 Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Originally posted by skin_finatic moss harrison owens holt 4th on my list....but yeah did show that tonight. Holt lead the league in receptions AND yards last season (they showed the stat during the game last night). I think he's arguably the best. Boy, did he make Sean Taylor look like a fool on that circle route (that I'm glad Bulger missed). It's good for Taylor to taste a little humble pie. It will keep him honest and working hard.

matty dread Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 I think the top 3 WR's in the league look like this 1) Harrison 1a) Moss 1b) Holt Too close to call, they're all great WR's, HOF material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
