FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Patriots coach Bill Belichick is defending Randy Moss against comments that the wide receiver doesn't go all out on the field.
Belichick said Monday he has a lot of respect for Moss and dismissed the criticism as coming from two players who had just lost another game.
Panthers defensive backs Chris Gamble and Chris Harris made the remarks after New England's 20-10 win Sunday that dropped Carolina to 5-8. The Patriots are 8-5.
Moss was held to one catch for 16 yards and lost a fumble on that play. He also appeared not to break hard for a pass that was intercepted by Gamble. But Belichick said Moss is one of the Patriots best and most consistent players.
