The Patriots and Raiders making it official, Oakland sending disgruntled yet talented wide receiver Randy Moss to New England for a fourth-round draft pick.
When Randy Moss showed up in New England, the decision was met with a ton of questions.

And New England, on the other hand, was the definition of buttoned up.
But the moment Moss and Brady hit the practice field together, all those doubts vanished.
Brady had spent the early 2000s slicing defenses with efficiency, short outs, check downs, timing throws over the middle, but he never had this.
