Moss Waived by the Vikings
So do the Patriots re-sign Moss (pocketing the 3rd rounder they got from the Vikes)?

No thanks. He's a cancer. Sure, as an individual, you'd be hard pressed to find a better big play guy - no one else is going to one-hand a deep ball in the back of the endzone. On the other hand, I'm much happier with the direction the Pats have taken post-Moss; getting back to basics with spreading the ball around and developing a running game. They have players that will fight to get open when it counts and work towards getting those much needed YAC.
There are far too many young bloods on the team to manage, let alone Randy's ego on top of it. Utilize a Cover 2 defense with a tough guy at the line to stuff him and a faster guy to pick him up after. Stuff him early in a game and he gives up - it's no secret.

even if it's true
i seriously doubt the Pats would grab him
think about it,
he whined about a contract here = gone
he went off yesterday = gone
he'll never learn so I say no, we don't want that again

If he even became available to the Pats, that would mean at least thirty teams passed on him.... If that happened, he would be having a long look in the mirror knowing he has probably ended his own career. But if BB thought he was worth it, Kraft would have him in his office laying down the line. Step over once, you're gone. No contract talk until after the season. But that is all conjecture on IF he actually will be waived..... Let me see....Bill or Brad? Who would you rather have making decisions?

I love the he's a cancer thing.It didn't even take 5 minutes after he left the Pats before the first moron called EEI using the word cancer.And yet according to every single Pat he was the ideal teammate.
Hell Moss had his tongue down the throats of Brady,Belichek and Kraft before the penis-heads were even off the field.Of course he's coming back and at a discount.

I've been saying it all season.
He has a piss-poor attitude, can't be depended on later in the game when it really counts, gives up easily after being stuffed for a quarter or two, doesn't like to expose himself in the middle of the field, the offense has to be adjusted to serve his ego, cornerbacks know when he isn't involved in a play because he doesn't try, distracts teams from their game plan by forcing them to throw the long ball even when that is not their style... shall I go on?
The Pats haven't lost a game since getting rid of him, they are scoring more points and are back to their ways when they won Super Bowls.
52 players on a team. Championships aren't won on the back of a single guy. They may not be a better team in the short term, but they certainly will be in the long term without the shadow of Randy in the locker room.

he could help a lot of teams if he'd play his hardest. Big if. he still has plenty of talent , just not motivated to do his best every play. Honestly , I feel sorry for him. One of the best on the field who will be remembered as a problem every where he went.

My guess he lands in San dieago.... Rivers could use a new toy.... although KC would probably be a better fit..there always is a team that thinks they can change these guy's... if big Bill cannot do it IMHO..no one can.
