BTW, I see that Farve fell into the trap of forcing the ball into Moss last night on MNF. Yep, he got a TD and yep they lost the game, mainly because of an ineffiecient offense.

Yes and no...this loss falls squarely on the shoulders of the coaching staff for not having them prepared (see how the first half went).
The game plan SUCKED last night. Where the hell was AP? Give the top back in the league the ball only 18 times, and throw as much as they did in that rain? WTF?
As far as falling into the Moss trap goes, there was some, but that's also what he did with Rice last year. Only thing is that it's Moss now, instead, honestly. And likely on any other CB than Cromartie, he's got a couple more catches by going over the top of them. The first TD by Harvin was COMPLETELY because of the presence of Moss...watch the route he ran and where Harvin was when he caught the ball.
And good move for them to bring back Branch. Hopefully for you, he can recapture the chemistry they had before he left.
