Santana Moss Would Like More Touchdowns, Please

Talking during today's open locker room media session, Santana Moss expressed a few of the same basic ideas as LaRon Landry and London Fletcher, about working harder and finishing plays and so on and so forth.Here, for example, is how he suggests that the team recover from Sunday's dispiriting loss: "Just keep working," he said. "You know, the season ain't made in three games.

It feels like some of the things that we did on the theatre alone so far this class have shown us that we can be a full team.I look like on offense, we only get to complete a couple'a plays here and there.One or two mistakes less, this drive, that drive, and good clean some of the little riff-raffs up." But Moss went farther than the former two in assigning primary duty for the two losses.And he didn't charge the defense, despite their league-low membership and sequential games with 30 points given up.Instead Moss - coming off a 6 catch, 124 yards, 1 touchdown game and sitting tied for fifth in the NFL (with Brandon Marshall) in receiving yards - put the blame squarely on his offensive unit.

"We go the ball so good at times, I look like we could make any time we take the globe in our hands," Moss said."I look like we simply Get to score, though." And settling for field goals, Moss made clear, is not acceptable."Sometimes those three points, - they help - but that also's giving that defense, that's like them saying, 'Okay, they didn't get seven on us,' you know?So we have to simply see a way to not put it on our defense to try to give these teams and only go out there and score seven points.I look like one or two touchdowns in that game could've stopped those guys from even trying, and we only let 'em stay around and didn't really put it on them the way we should have, and that's how they ended up taking the game." Hard to contend with any of that.Moss also addressed the thought that the red in St. Louis is an echo of the red in Detroit, or that it portends a similarly down season. "Every year's gonna be different," Moss said."You can't live on what happened in the past, and you can't look back, and I look like right now it's a completely different team and a different era, and we'll find our way out of it."
