Im not saying TO wouldnt be a good addition, Im not saying he doesnt back of some of the things he says with his play, but its the way he acts and the motions he takes that he needs to back up. He is an excelent WR in a less than spectacular offense, and he could be soooo much better. Have you watched the Niners play on weeks other than their primetime games? He's completely different. One thing that bugs me is the announcers continue to say(all game long) is that TO needs to be in the game early, or else he doesnt give 100%. Heck, if he doesnt get the ball in the first 15 minutes of play, he doesnt even play 60%! You can watch him. He does the same thing Moss admitted to years ago, not giving his all on all plays. Which is TOTAL CRAP! He gets his paycheck to run his heart out everyplay, make the CB and safety think the ball is going to him.
Now on the Horn thing...There is no way you can compare the running of the mouth of Horn to the running of the mouth of TO. TO is better, but he's 1000 times more arrogant and about himself. Horn doesnt whine to Brooks everytime he thinks he's open and doesnt get the ball. He doesnt single out his HC or Off. Cord. when he isnt the star of the game. Guess who does? TO! I more than welcome TO if he can drop his attitude. Talk all the trash you want...but leave the "its all about me" attitude at home.
Ask the west coast fans? :D:D Thats funny. Notice my location? Raider Nation. Also known as the land of gold, red and gold that is. My entire family, from nieces, cousing, uncles, to grandparents are all Niner fans. 75% of my friends are. You want to know what they think of TO? The same thing I do. Granted Ill give you 1 out of 20 that says they dont care about attitude. Then you bring up the blatant disrespect to those above him and they say "ohh...I forgot about that." And no, I wont tell them to lay off the drugs. Their opinion is their own and Ill respect that. Comparing TO to any of our 2nd string and below WR is ridiculous. They arent even close to the same level.
Back to production. I never said he doesnt produce. I never said his #'s were bad. But what I did say was that they could be better. As odd as it sounds, he really does average about 2 drops a game. A player of his magnitude, of his allowance, of his "me me me" tactics, does NOT have the right to drop passes.
I say No ON TO for the reasons stated above.
I dont know if that Moss comment was aimed at me, so Ill comment on it just in case. I said compared to Moss a few years ago is buyable. Moss has a completely different outlook and gives his all. I love watching him play. He is outstanding and lets his play talk for him. A few years ago I wouldnt say the same, but pretty soon everyone is going to forget about that.
Va Fin Fan...I see your point 100%, but at this point we're bantering back and forth, repeating the same things, so its pointless. I have seen TO play 15 times this year, and about 75% of the time im thanking God he isnt a Fin. I'll stand by my thoughts up until the day he is one. That day Ill say, alright, we've got another WR, but at what cost? Ill be happy he's here, but I'll be happier when he leaves.
