Jaws: Moss took plays off

New England Patriots
11/29/2007 5:20 PM The Boston Herald reports ESPN analyst Ron Jaworski saw something in the Patriots-Eagles game film that was troubling beyond what Philadelphia did in coverage to shut down WR Randy Moss on Sunday night. During a conference call with reporters yesterday, Jaworski, who will be in the booth for Monday night’s game between the Pats and Ravens in Baltimore, claimed he saw Moss slacking off at times when his number wasn’t called. “Quite honestly, when I went through the tape, it was the first time that I was personally disappointed in a Randy Moss performance,” Jaworski said of the NFL’s leading receiver, who caught five passes for 43 yards in the 31-28 win against the Eagles. “I did not see the same energy on every single play that I had seen so far this season. “When he was the No. 1 go-to-guy on a route, he gave great effort and hustle, but there were some plays on the back side when he wasn’t the primary receiver, I did not see great effort. Knowing how the Patriots handle things internally, I’m sure there have been some discussions on Randy that, ‘Every snap, we need 100 percent out of you.’ ” Read more
