dola,

Look at 2004 Oakland. A hapless team heading into 2005 relying on a career backup RB in Lamont Jordan and an OOTP scouting report "...but a smart GM may look to upgrade" QB in Kerry Collins, along with a bunch of underachieving WR's in Jerry Porter and Ronald Curry who were quickly shaping up to be the next Tai Streets/Koren Robinson. Add in a muddled mess up front, and you had a recipe for total offensive disaster. You couldn't name one player on that offense (line included) in the top 10 at his position in the NFL. You'd have a hard time making a convincing argument that the Raiders offense was much superior to that other team down the road a little ways.

Enter Randy Moss, and the 2005 Oakland Raiders have scored 202 points (12th in total points per game) and are 6th in the league in passing yards per game--and Randy hasn't even been fully healthy yet.
