I have a tough decision this week. Randy Moss and the Raiders will eventually score at least one TD, but I could end up seeing another lack luster performance from Moss.

Troy Brown is an ageless wonder that is fresh from the waiver wire. The Pats play the Jets this week, and the Jets lack a star CB. Brady likes to spread the ball around but Gabriel is dinged and doesn't fully have the playbook under him and how many times can you call Reche Caldwell's number? Ben Watson and Daniel Graham are the biggest recieving threats in NE right now, but Brown will probably get the ball, probably not for a TD again though.

Thoughts?

Well, I do actually. Moss may be a stud and all, but he can lay an egg at times. I'de say there's a 90% chance that Moss is going to get the start (he's currently the starter in the lineup), but with Oakland being a ticking time bomb and playing @ BAL; another shutout should be considered.

OAK's OL is HORRIBLE. Moss isn't going to put up good #'s if he can't get the ball from the QB. Meanwhile, Brown could get his number called on playing against sub-par CB's.

I'm not talking about starting Brown the rest of the season, it's just that Moss plays the Ravens. McCallister, Rolle, Reed, Lewis, Suggs, Nagata, and Pryce are all factors when considering starting Moss this week.
