Matchupalooza: Santana Moss Vs Marcus Trufant

Enjoy the Enjoyment found this 1/3/2008 on www.fieldgulls.com [flag]

Two years ago, Santana Moss was a pretty big wheel in the nation's capital. That year, he posted the third best DPAR among wide receivers . Moss caught over 60% of all passes targeting him. He had no less than 5 receptions of 50 or more yards. And he received for nearly half of Mark Brunell's 3,050 passing yards.

Seattle Sports: In the Morning
Published 1/3/2008 by Seth at Enjoy the Enjoyment
... John Morgan of Field Gulls says Marcus Trufant will shut down Santana Moss: "Moss is quick, but doesn't get the separation he once did. Nor does he leap like he once did ...

I'm going to be looking at the past four weeks for both teams to identify any trends that have emerged towards the end of the season. Is there any reason I selected four games? No, it has nothing at all to do with the fact that the Redskins have played the best football of the year in the past four games. I am not a ...

And by new study I mean something Clinton Portis said. Or it should become academic gospel in virtue of CP saying it, anyways. First, from Covering the Redskins : When asked how health has affected the season of Santana Moss, Clinton Portis joked, "now that he has gotten over his circumcision, he's doing a lot better.. You can tell by the way he is running." Portis and Moss are both ...

The 2nd & 3rd Level Of course the Hawks aren't going to be able to stop every rush in the first level, so when the Redskins win the initial matchup, what then must Seattle do to limit the damage of rushes that enter the 2nd level? And how do Washington's two rushers differ? Let's rip into this. Lofa Tatupu, Leroy Hill, Julian Peterson, Marcus Trufant and Deon Grant Vs Clinton ...
