Today was media day which usually consists of players talking trash, bashing the other team and making a fool out of themselves. But Randy Moss did none of those things. Instead he took it upon himself to tell everyone that he is the greatest wide receiver to ever play the game. 

I don’t really live on numbers, I really live on impact and what youre able to do out on the field. I really think I’m the greatest receiver to ever play this game.– Randy Moss

“Now that I’m older, I do think I’m the greatest receiver to ever do it,” Moss said at Super Bowl media day in New Orleans.

Moss acknowledged that this season with the San Francisco 49ers “has been a down year for me statistically” as was his 2010 season before he retired for a year and his last season with the Oakland Raiders (2006) before his trade to the New England Patriots. He said, however, that he doesn’t think statistics should determine greatness.

“I really think I’m the greatest receiver to ever play this game.”

Randy Moss will be a free agent after this season and it has been reported that he will be looking to return.

Moss had 28 receptions for 434 yards and three touchdowns in the regular season for the NFC champion 49ers. He has five receptions for 71 yards in San Francisco’s two playoff victories.

Moss enjoyed his best season with the Patriots in 2007, when he caught 98 passes for 1,493 yards and a single-season record 23 touchdowns in helping New England to a 16-0 regular-season record.

He has 982 catches for 15,292 yards and 156 touchdowns in his 14-season career.

Hall of Famer Jerry Rice, who now is an ESPN NFL analyst, leads the all-time lists in those three categories with 1,549 receptions, 22,895 yards and 197 touchdown receptions.

You do the math.
