I still believe taking Moscow should have taken priority for it probably would have created a scenario where Stalin would have been deposed and the Soviet Leadership been fractured.

The problem was the Soviets had moved so much industry beyond the Urals; they knew Moscow could be taken, and put up a great defense, but I don’t think the war would have ended if it fell. The Soviets had moved so much beyond the reach of Germany’s air power; Germany’s military was designed to fight short-range wars, and in the end it paid a price for that.
