I'll join the welcome, but why all the hate for Santana? I give Coles a slight edge with this offense, but there is no reason we shouldn't have both. If we had Coles, Cotchery & Santana I'd be pretty happy, but they screwed that up giving Coles the lower tender. I dispute the Moss only goes deep claim: He did plenty of damage on short outs, slants and screens and was a lot more likely to take one of Pennington's 3 yarders the distance than anyone we have now. Not to mention how much better he was at punt returning than Tim Dwight, Justin Miller and whoever else we had been trotting out there.

I'm not saying that Moss was a great player for us. Far from it.

But he did have speed that had to be respected and gave us the ability to stretch the defense that we don't have right now. Any defense that plays us can roll up the entire defense with 7 yards of the LOS. Makes it difficult to block on running plays.

OK, I know I shouldn't use 'us'. but after 45+ years of Jets/Titans fandom, I feel somewhat entitled. ;)

Regarding Moss in the punt returnning capacity. Wasn't he the guy who

would run out of bounds after he caught the ball, or was it someone else.

I know someone used to do that.
