      @@davidbarber3821 unfortunately Moss exists, don't get me wrong though, If CJ had a longer career as Moss he probably would've been better (CJ & RM had 6 pro browls while RM had more seasons, CJ had 3 seasons with 100 yards per game while RM had 1, RM has more Touchdowns 156, and yards 15292, while CJ had 83 with 11619, this definitly shows that if CJ had more seasons he would've been better than RM. At one point CJ almost had 2 seasons with 2000 yards. But RM had Tom Brady as a QB)
