we're at like waiver #25, I would be very surprised if he's available for Haley to be forced to make a decision on him anyway.

I must have missed this, but apparently Pioli was rumored to be pursuing Carolina's Steve Smith before the trade deadline

If that's the case, I'd imagine we take a flyer if Moss drops to us.

But wait, even if we sign him wouldn't that put us over the salary cap?

Wrong.

Pioli already acquired Moss once, and that was before he demonstrated any significant run of maturity or ability to function on a team.

And if anyone thinks you don't acquire Moss because Moeaki's the "go-to" guy, well...yeah right.

I would be happy to swap Chambers out for Moss, but I don't see the planets aligning anytime soon.

Actually, I think the real cancer in Minnesota is the man with the cut chin.

I'm thinking he probably said something to Mr. LittleDong after the game in the locker room and that led to his release.

Moss = fast, tall, long and can jump

Cassel = many overthrows

This could be a match made in heaven. Moss could haul in all of those super high passes.

From what I've read, Moss' presser after the game was of a man trying to be released.

No, Minnesota is just a weak ****ing trip sans P Rodgers funk clubs and ALL teh history that goes with.

This next dance is for the sexy people only!....

Eleventy.

I am not saying pass on Moss because of Moeaki...I didn't word that right I guess. What I meant is that Cassel does not see his WR's. He only has eyes for the new Tony, or so it seems. Moss wouldn't get much action due to Cassels inability to get the ball down the field.

Everyone knows Moss would open up everything else for us. McCluster would finally be able to be an effective slot WR with the underneath stuff opened up. Bowe would never be doubled and Moeaki will have more room in the middle of the field. And could you imagine our running game??? We wouldn't be able to be stopped. Seriously. But its not gunna happen....

Randy Moss misses New England, criticizes Childress
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on October 31, 2010 8:37 PM ET
Randy Moss gave Patriots fans one last bizarre press conference to remember him by.

After a deeply disappointing return to Foxborough where he caught only one pass for eight yards, Moss showed up unannounced at the podium wearing a Red Sox hat and went off for five rambling minutes. Some highlights:

1. He called Bill Belichick the greatest coach in the history of the NFL.

2. Fined $25,000 this week for not cooperating with the media, Moss said he will not answer any more questions the rest of the year. He said he will ask and answer his own questions exclusively. (Tonight's question was: "What's on your mind, Randy?")

3. Moss constantly repeated how much he misses the Patriots. "I just want to be able to tell the guys (in NE) I miss the hell out of them," Moss said.

4. While the Patriots have the greatest coach of all time, the Vikings have Brad Childress. Moss criticized Brad Childress for going for it on fourth-and-goal from the one-yard line at the end of the first half. The Patriots stuffed Adrian Peterson.

"I'm definitely down we lost this game. . . . Wish could have had 3 at end of the half. Maybe it could have been different. Maybe not," Moss said.

5. Moss said the ovation from Patriots fans at the end of the game brought a tear to his eye.

6. The weirdest part of the press conference was when Moss vaguely said that the Vikings didn't take advantage of the extra information he gave his new team.

"I tried to prepare," Moss said. "I tried to talk to the players and coaches about how this game was going to be played and a couple tendencies here, couple tendencies here. The bad part about it -- you have six days to prepare for a team, and on the seventh day, that Sunday, meaning today, I guess they come over to me and say, 'Dag, Moss, you was right about a couple plays and a couple schemes they were going to run.'

"It hurts as a player that you put a lot of hard work in all week, and toward the end of the week, Sunday, when you get on the field, that's when they acknowledge about the hard work you put in throughout the week. That's actually a disappointment."

The whole thing sounded like Moss applying for a job with New England next year. We think the Patriots are quite content without him.

UPDATE: A snippet of the fun:


"I don't know how many more times I'm going to be up here in New England," Moss concluded. "But I'm going to leave the New England Patriots, Coach Belichick, man, with a salute, man. I love you guys, I miss you, I'm out."

Cassel bashing buttchunk! He went 11 - 5 throwing to Moss with NE.
Moss would get action if they put 8 in the box!!! GUARANTEED!

Does BRC have any inside info on this?
