Keyshawn did everything I expected of him. His stats here were almost identical to the ones he compiled with Dallas. He didn't ruin the morale of this team by any means.

That 06 team was almost always in position to win games, but when it was crunch time, they just couldn't pull it off. They had no luck. A few plays go the other way and they were easily 11-5 or 12-4.

I agree, I get why TB fans loathe him. I think he needed another dose of Parcells to get his mind right.

Key DEFINITELY didn't drop as many easy catches as Moose has.

I like Cris Carter and him on Countdown. Sure he's a diva, but how many WRs aren't? We all love Smitty and he is a diva. Hell, Moose is/has been a bit diva-ish too. It's the nature of the position. WRs who aren't flashy, selfish and/or diva-ish to certain degrees are NOT the norm. I think at first Key may have been a tad bitter and it showed, but I think he's over it.

Not sure I agree. Keyshawn missed 2 easy passes for TDs when he was all alone by himself. He also twice ran terrible routes in the end zone which cost us 2 games and made Lito Shepard and an out of position safety look all pro. He didn't play with fire and wasn't a physical receiver. I will take Moose anytime. I didn't hate Keyshawn at all but in my mind he was a big disappointment. Particularly at twice the price of Moose. Plus Moose is 10 times the leader that Keyshawn is and was a cohesive force instead of a divisive one.

Just sayin........

What does it matter if he's better than Moose or not? The hate's coming from.....where?

I don't really see him as a disappoint seeing as how our team was just overall weak that season.

Maybe it's stemming from that fact: he was probably our most high profile acquisition that year (Deangelo, of course, but he wasn't high profile yet lol), and when we went 8-8, there had to be a scapegoat. So it was him and Weinke that bore the blame (although Weinke DID deserve some blame).

haha my best memory of keyshawn was when he was announcing the draft and we drafted Dwayne Jarrett and he was all like, hmm I wonder why we drafted him, I guess he's someone for me to mentor to and help develop... then he got released... that whole situation was priceless!

You mean the fade in the end-zone where the Eagles knew Jake and our hand signals when we do this? Yeah, that's Key's fault. Moose wasn't cheaper than Keyshawn that year actually, but I do agree we should have just paid Moose if we ended up paying Keyshawn.

These guys are about the same receivers, and they both drop wide open passes and then make crazy catches. I've seen Moose with at least 2 td's this year alone also. One of them I could have caught. They both block excellently, they are about even. Our team had issues that year, not Keyshawn. But whatever.

Any WR can tell you when a CB picks out a signal and knows what route you're going to run, you are absolutely f*cked. Jake made the call, and it was a bad call to make, on a first down, with timeouts left within the Eagles' ten yard line. Why would you throw it up for grabs anyway on a first down? He beat Lito on that one earlier in the game. That guy doesn't start for the Eagles for no reason, he's a smart little f*cker, and he'll know what you're calling if you tip him off.

Sh1t I would've known that was the route they were running if I got beat by it earlier on in the game.
