Moss appeared to be one of those workhorse, reliable guys ...... he reminded me of Rob Carpenter, when he played alongside (and sometimes in place of the injured) Earl Campbell for the Oilers ...... not for their styles of running, but more so for being the solid player who unexpectedly came along and performed very well for an injured star running back (in this case, Jonathan Taylor was the proverbial Earl Campbell to Moss's Rob Carpenter.)

In a 1979 divisional playoff game against the San Diego Chargers, Carpenter filled in for an injured Earl Campbell, leading the team in rushing with 67 yards while also catching 4 passes for 23 yards in a 17–14 upset victory ...... despite being barely recovered from a knee injury himself, as he was still literally on crutches just before the start of the game.
