I didn't know Luck was a WR. Learn something new every day...

he's just keeping it real.
for the record I believe randy will contribute well for us but it is premature to say "randys back" or "omg he's our number 1 already"
Sando had an article about Randy and all of the great things that have been said about him when he first starts practicing with a new team. Unfortunately he's gotten similar attention and good press every time he's began practicing with a new team, even the teams he flamed out of (OAK MINN TENN)

Like Cam Newton? I don't get it...
With Moss, it's often about impressive debuts and new beginnings. Sometimes, he sticks around and produces, as the case was with New England. Other times, the initial impressions do not foreshadow future results. Moss impressed the Oakland Raiders when he joined them by trade from Minnesota in 2005. That situation did not work out well (the Raiders obviously deserve some of the blame). "I thought Randy was outstanding," Norv Turner, then the Raiders' coach, said after Moss' first couple practices with the team. "He got in yesterday afternoon late and we put a lot of offense in today and we have a lot going in this weekend. He handled it extremely well. It's a whole different system than he's been around. He went out and relaxed and obviously he can run and catch and do those things. He looked very comfortable to me."
Moss impressed the New England Patriots when he joined them by trade from Oakland in 2007. Moss played very well for the Patriots before his time with the team ran its course. "Tom Brady has heard the critics who expect Moss to bring more baggage to the Patriots than a hotel valet would," The New York Times wrote back when Moss joined New England. "But so far, Brady has been impressed, and Moss looked explosive during Wednesday's workout. During one portion of practice, Brady and Moss stood off to the side by themselves, talking and throwing a football, part of the working bond they hope to create."
Moss impressed the Vikings when he rejoined them by trade from the Patriots in 2010. Moss wound up making little impact (the Vikings, like the Raiders, had their own issues). "He's had a whirlwind week-and-a-half catching up on a new playbook, and the Vikings were quite pleased with his performance against the New York Jets last week despite the lack of familiarity," the Associated Press reported. "The coaches have noted progress in practice this week, believing he'll be able to be more comfortable with his routes without having to stop and think too much about his assignment."
Moss impressed the Tennessee Titans when he joined their team off waivers in 2011. He made almost no impact with the team on the field, however. "When Randy Moss comes into your locker room, he brings something. Guys are seeing that and responding to it," Kerry Collins, then a Titans quarterback, told reporters. "The biggest thing is just the way he's working. You never judge a book by what you hear. You wait and see what a guy is about. He's come in here with a great attitude and ready to work. The guy just wants to win. Period. The end. He'll do whatever it takes to make that happen."
Moss impressed the New Orleans Saints during a workout in 2012. They did not sign him, however. "Moss had an off-the-charts workout at the Saints facility this morning," sportsNOLA.com reported. "The 35-year old Moss reportedly performed the 40-yard dash in the 4.39 to 4.4 range and ran routes while hauling in nearly 50 passes. One source described Moss as being more impressive than anticipated, saying that he is in great shape."
And, of course, Moss is impressing the 49ers this offseason. The situation in San Francisco appears more stable than the ones in Oakland or Minnesota (the second time). Perhaps the results will be better as well.
(Coming from a Pats fan): The issue isn't whether Randy looks good. He ALWAYS looked good. The issue is how many plays will he quit on? When a play was breaking down, or he got jammed too hard at the line, he'd quit midway through. Plus he doesnt make a lot of extra effort to make catches that he should. Keep in mind, once the Patriots released Randy Moss Brady went on his streak of passes without an interception. Most of Brady's interceptions over the years were from a lack of effort from Moss.

How am I hating??? I have good reason to doubt Moss, yet you have no reason to claim that you've "been calling it since day 1" and that all the Moss doubters have been "slapped in the face". What's up with that?

Bruce was more consistent in his effort but Moss is a freak of nature physically...so I agree he is on another level. But, I think many coaches would rather have the consistent guy so they'd know what to expect. Harbaugh will not allow Moss to destroy this team though so I have confidence that he will either help a lot or be gone.
