The bigger story to me is why New England traded him. Quitting on Minnesota can easily be explained by pouting. But Moss makes it sound like he really liked playing in New England, and it's not like going to the Raiders where he had no shot at winning.

What does Randy Moss want? Does he want a ring? A big payday? Gaudy stats? Being with friends? That seems to be the factor in whether he's productive. The Chiefs can offer #4. Maybe #1 if he's here. Probably not #2 and #3.

I'd take Moss here, he'd fill the exact thing this team needs on the outside.

And Rainman no matter what he gets the money he has left on his contract so I doubt payday plays that much into where he's going for the rest of this year.

Rivers to Moss is pretty much terrifying.

But as usual, only a matter time before he would quit on them too.

No he'd give up on Cassel underthrows and use cuss words in the locker room.

Can anyone elaborate the waiver process?

Does he have to sign with the lowest team to offer him a contract?

You got it all wrong!

It's just that we're actually 2 franchise left tackles away from the Super Bowl. That's all.

Have Moss go long but tell Cassel he's running a five yard hook route. He'll accidentally hit Moss in stride 40 yards downfield.

If they claim him yes, but they also pick up his contract, where if no one claims him Minnesota has to pick it up then he can sign wherever he chooses for whatever the offer is.

There is no signing. He's already signed his contract. First team in line to sign him gets his contract. If he clears waivers, he's a FA and Minn is on the hook for his contract.

Randy felt the Pats weren't respecting him by not offering him a new contract. But both sides knew that Randy wanted more than the Pats would be willing to commit. So he started grumbling a bit about it being his last season in New England. Then apparently Belichick and the Vikes started talking (don't know who initiated it). So Belichick had two choices:

1.) Keep Moss, let him possibly develop into a distraction, and get nothing for him at the end of the year, or...

2.) Trade Moss and get something.

And they got a 3rd. Hell, they only gave up a 4th to get him, IIRC.

They also had an issue of Brady starting to develop tunnel vision on Moss. Which, to be honest, was more Brady's problem than Moss's.

So Moss moved on to Minnesota, took one look around the locker room and at Childress, and realized, "Holy shit, it's horrible here." He realized that Childress is a suck-ass coach and the Vikes are a badly-run organization, and he realized how much better he'd had it in New England.

The thing about KC is that it's probably one of the few places he would be able to exist, because Haley is Mini-Belichick, the team is winning and has strong defensive and run-game components, they have strong coordinators with winning reputations, and he wouldn't have to be the main man. I think he'd fit beautifully there.

He's the only reason cassel is with the chiefs. He made Cassel look better than he is and that's exactly why we should pick him up.

Seiously, getting him makes us a dare I say... Superbowl contender?

"OK, gotta account for the strong crosswind here, better make a nice, tight back shoulder throw...Oh shit, put a little too much under that one...Holy shit, what's Randy doing, he's running under it..HOOK Randy HOOK!!...What do ya know, a Touchdown..."

Did Weis ever coach randy

I hope they get the opportunity to get him. Cassel needs all the help he can get. Due to the attention he commands, our O would become an instant juggernaut.

Randy Moss just in name alone would help the run game and short passing game.

Waiver order is worst to first (records as of right now) ... the Bills are on the clock, so to speak.

Um..no...

I'll post it one more time.......

Because the traded deadline has passed, Moss is subject to the NFL's waiver system.

The 0-7 Buffalo Bills have top priority, followed by the Dallas Cowboys and Carolina Panthers (1-6), and 2-6 teams such as the San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos. Detroit, Cleveland, and Cincinnati are next in line, but are unlikely to add high-profile receiver at this point in the season.

The 3-5 San Diego Chargers, however, might have interest in adding Moss for their attempt to turn around another slow start to the season.

New England has the NFL's best record, and are therefore unlikely to be awarded Moss, should they put a claim in.

Moss' numbers in 2008 - 1000 receiving yards, 11 touchdowns. Obviously almost all of that would be with Cassel.

Technically, I think everyone's on the clock. I don't think the teams know who puts in claims; I think they have from now until 4pm tomorrow, and at that point they say, "Okay, X number of teams have put in a claim, and the highest-ranking team is so-and-so." But I could be wrong about that.

I know... was just having fun with the situation.

Well yea, it'll be interesting to see if a team puts in a claim to block another team from having him.

LMAO

For realz

The chance of Moss making it down to KC on the waiver wire is slim and none. I would love to see it as they need someone desperately but not gonna happen!:shake:

He did 2 yrs ago.

Don't dare say, they are improved, but I'm not sure they are even a solid playoff team.

Why don't you see the Jests picking him up?

Obviously any team without a playoff shot would be crazy to take him - Moss needs to be winning to be happy, and nobody on earth wants an unhappy Moss. Cincinnati might be an option for him, but would they really want to add Moss to a mix that already includes Ocho-Psycho and TO? I'm thinking no.

Sadly, that leaves San Diego as the first team that could legitimately use him to turn things around. If he goes there, we'd better hope they keep finding new and exciting ways to lose that will make him blow a gasket. If not, they're probably right back in the mix.

I think Miami has/will put in a claim for him to block him from the Pats and Jests.

How many problem WR's does one team need? Edwards, Holmes & Moss?

LMAO

How not? The by far greatest run game and a pretty ****in good defense. All they need is a passing game. Moss gives them one.

Never seemed to stop Hippo Ryan. They are all about breaking the bank to win. Hippo is arrogant enough to think he can control Randy. And they are winning. Maybe he can.

I could see those being worn a lot by Packers fans.

**** no

you want to see Moss dog it just wait until he watches weis call a run play on 3rd and 6 all game long. Moss' non-blocking ass would hurt our running game too.

stupid,stupid idea

I don't think Moss fits the mold for KC at all.

By the way, can nobody on NFL Network ****ing read? Any time an anchor is given some text on screen to read, the best he or she can muster is some approximation of those words, and even then they struggle. They're like the Matt Cassels of literacy.

You also think that McGraw should start over Lewis...

I'm thinking he goes to Denver. Josh McDaniels has worked with him before.....and the Broncos already pass a shit ton as it is. Moss and Lloyd are a pretty good combo.

Speaking of the Bengals, they should claim Moss so they can have Moss, TO, and Ochocinco all on the field at the same time!

And, BOOM goes the dynamite... that's exactly what Denver is missing. Hell, they could go 8-0 down the stretch with Moss signed up. Make it happen, Pat! STFU

Denver's too talent challenged to win with him. It would be a disaster for them.

That said, I have no problem with it.

Yeah, BOOM, we still can't run the ball. But at least I have another shiney object to distract Bronco fans with /Mcdumbass

I'd hate it....but if I'm Moss....I'd love it. The Broncos don't run at all.....and you know that you're going to get targeted a shit ton in that offense. McDaniels would make sure and make Moss the focus of his offense.

Moss and Lloyd with Royal in the slot.

Phhht, no way... Denver has issues running, loves to pass. Moss = perfect piece to that puzzling team. Moss saves McDaniels... Tebow smiles.

I know the reason for this....

You see, the untold secret of the NFL, is that the Cock photos Jenn received were ACTUALLY fwd of photos Childress sent to Favre to woo him back to Minnesoooooooota.

Does signing Moss dig you out of that 2-6 hole? Does Moss play defense?

If you want unhappy Moss, you're welcome to him. Better Denver than San Diego.

That'd be fun to watch until Carson Palmer pulls out a gun and shoots himself right there in the huddle.

For what it's worth - you suck hard at disparaging nicknames.

Both 'Jests' and 'Hippo Ryan' are exceedingly ghey.

Like, worse than calling you 'dicksucks24'.

Just stop, they aren't funny no matter how many times you post them.

Personally, I would welcome Moss here with open arms... until he started sucking.

It would give Cassel confidence... and open holes for Jones, Charles, Bowe and Moeaki.

Winner winner chicken ****ing dinner.

Laz is not very bright.

He is to football what Hootie is to morality.

For Ryan, I'd recommend going with Ryanosaurus Rex.

Ryanoceros

Now that's how a pro does it.

See, it incorporates his actual name into it while also making light of both his size and his over-the-top demeanor.

Take notes, Dicksock37.

Not really sure anyone will do that. I mean, it's a six-million-dollar cockblock (or whatever his salary works out to). What team really wants to take on that salary, as well as the potential headache Moss provides, just to block another team? No, I think there will be legitimate claims by a handful of teams who think he will provide some receiver help and stretch the defense. There are many plausible teams. Just off the bat, the Chiefs, Raiders, Broncos, Jets, Chargers, Packers, Bears... It's going to have to be a team that a.) has a need, b.) has playoff aspirations, c.) has a strong head coach/locker room, and d.) can afford to take a six-million-dollar flier on the guy.

IMO, weirdly enough, the only team that I can see putting in a claim just for appearances might be the Patriots. They're last on the list, so they certainly don't have to claim him, as he'd then be a FA and they could talk to him anyway, but putting in a claim is a nice gesture and, on the off chance no one else puts in a claim, would probably be enough of an olive branch to make Randy behave for the rest of the season. ("Look here, Randy, we appreciated your postgame comments, and we got a free third-rounder, so we're willing to pick up your full salary again. You come here, behave yourself now that you realize how much it could suck out there on a crappy team, and at the end of the season you can go your own way again.")

ROFL

If Hootie still has you on ignore, I'll quote this just so he sees it.

I'd take him any day, he's a nut case and all he's still a threat.

The 49ers should be all over this. They're #4 on the waiver list, they're only 2-3 games back, and Seattle is supposedly interested.

Moss, Crabtree, Davis, Gore, that's not bad. And at least for a little while, everyone will forget what a shitty coach Singletary is.

I don't think Denver needs to go get him at all... hell, I don't think McD is using Royal or Thomas correctly. Moss could possibly help them out with redzone issues and add another threat to a team that can't run, but no... he doesn't answer any of the questions they have on defense and would do nothing really for Denver at this point. They have to win out to reach 10 wins... not happening. They have to go 6-2 down the stretch to hit .500 - and while that could happen, I don't see it happening.

Denver can't stop anyone from running... it's the same story that it's been for 5 years.

I usually do.

Childress has lost his mind. I blame Fa-Va-Rah. He's driven Childress nuts.

From ESPN:

"Moss is available on the waiver wire until Tuesday afternoon. A team can claim him and pick up the final year of a contract that pays him $6.4 million in base salary. Winless Buffalo has the worst record in the league and the first shot to claim Moss, followed by Carolina and Dallas. If no team claims him, the Vikings owe Moss the remaining $3.888 million on his deal. He'd be available for around $450,000 and Moss could choose the team he would like to join.

Various league sources told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter that the Dallas Cowboys, Washington Redskins, Chicago Bears, St. Louis Rams, Miami Dolphins, Oakland Raiders, Kansas City Chiefs, Seattle Seahawks, New York Jets and even the Patriots are among the teams possibly interested in claiming Moss.

Segal told the Star Tribune that he has already been contacted by the Dolphins and Seahawks about Moss."

The Chiefs should absolutely put in a claim on Randy Moss.

If he plays well, he could win a game or two for the Chiefs. If he has an attitude problem, waive him.

Well, we're wayyyyyy down the waiver wire priority list.

says a guy who named himself after a man's scrotum

LOL at the Cowboys putting in a claim. Like WR is their problem.

I could see the Bears and Rams absolutely putting in a claim though.

The people saying no to him coming to the Chiefs are hilarious. Like the Patriots suffered any when his attitude "went south". ****ing please.

Having Randy Moss on the field with Jamaal Charles, Bowe and Moeaki is a matchup nightmare.

Some of you moral police officers are gold.

What the **** does that have to do with anything?

someone who names themselves after male genitalia shouldn't be calling anyone else "not bright"

Chiefs are 29th of 32 in the waiver order.

I would love to have a great story along the lines of 'Working for, former wide receiver and current Kansas City Head Coach, Todd Haley revived the career of Randy Moss...played another 6 years...3 Superbowl rings together...', but I don't see it happening.

Moss hasn't been released and some people in the Vikings organization don't want to release him

That's incredible that strength of schedule isn't a tiebreaker in favor of the Chiefs.

Problem is that I don't think he was a team captain, Mr. The Bad Guy.

I'll bet Moss would relish the concept of having Cassel as his quarterback.

He'd be spending every game all by himself 40 yards downfield.

So, when Childress is fired at the end of this season and Favre is gone on to do some attention whoring somewhere else, who takes over coaching?

Do you think Cowher would take a serious look at them?

They have a stout D (when it wants to be), and a stud running back and solid running game. That seems to fit his MO.

What do you think?

so the patriots will get a draft pick for a player that they sign off of waivers lol
