Honestly, I'm afraid to insinuate that about Rice. In a different thread, I said that Rice wasn't the gamebreaker that Moss is. "Bay Area Boy" Eck basically called me an idiot.
But yeah, Rice certainly benefitted from that offense. Still the greatest receiver evah--I just think that Moss can make a bad QB good, while Rice could make a good QB great. If that makes sense.

And I think a good way to validate your theory would be looking into more good recievers, and see what kind of player got more effects on quarterbacks. Then you might have a theory that makes more sense.
It might not be about if the reciever is better, but what receivers would have positive impacts on the quarterback ratings.
Maybe some of it was just a result of coaching habits. Maybe when Owens and Moss changed teams, the coaches just happened to change the playbooks more. Sometimes teams find players that fit the team style, and sometimes teams change styles for new players. Is it possible the latter is contributing to the change you are seeing, instead of player ability?
