This is a serious question about Moss. If the situation was different and the Colts had been the one to land Moss, how would people around here think or Moss and his value? This may have been mentioned in one of previous thread, but there are a ton of post and this is a specific question.

I think it will be interesting to see how he does in a different environment. He has never been in the situation that he will be in with the Pats. With the Vikings, it was Randy's team. Granted Culpepper was there, but Moss was the first player that you thought of when the Vikings came up. With Oakland it was the bad attitude Randy almost right off the bat. Now he comes into a team situation with the Pats that he hasn't seen before. A proven winner, with a clear cut set of leaders. It should be interesting. Especially to see if he can just turn it back on considering that it has been several yeaars since we have seen the Randy Moss that everyone feared.

But back to the question. If he were now a Colt, would you think he would become the old Randy or just another good receiver? What do you think the impact would be on the "team" structure with the Colts and their locker room? Once again, this is a serious question and I'm curious to see what you guys think. If you don't like the topic or that I'm a Colts fan, don't waste your time flaming me, just move on to the next thread please and thank you.

I'd have the same reaction : "YOW" it would just be negative instead of positive.

I'll tell you one thing, I don't think he'd get far chewing Peyton Manning out like he did Culpepper. But the Patriots, having lots of structure and discipline, are a better fit for Moss-at-30 than the laid-back Colts.

I think he COULD thrive as a Colt.

That being said, he stated he would restructure his contract only for the New England Patriots, so obviously, he wouldn't be going to Indy with the same personal attitude that he is in now. That is the key. His attitude is the most important part. So, talent-wise, he COULD thrive as a Colt. Mentally, I'm not sure.

Two football related things that don't agree with Randy Moss are:

1) losing
2) being a leader

If a winning environment, loaded with leaders can be provided for Moss, then he'll excel as few in this game ever can dream of.

He'll get both here in NE and he'd get both in Indy.

He'd be great in Indy. I'd be very disappointed.

Guarantee that if Indy had shown interest, they might have been the only other team for which Moss would have adjusted his contract. It's just that the Colts are already loaded at WR, and it's one of the reasons they're up against the cap!

I would think that it was bait of overkill considering you already have two Pro Bowlers with Harrison and Wayne, but I would also know that Moss would put up huge numbers in that offense.

I think the huge difference would be that here, he's #1 until its taken away from him. In Indy, he would not be #1, and that may have an effect. As far as team leadership/winning/etc. I don't see a huge difference.

TheSeymonsta

If the Colts gave up the same (a 4th round pick and 5 million) I would think it would be a no-brainer move.

He would be on a winning team with a great QB.

Difference being it would be bad for the Pats.


BTW why the *** didnt the Colts address their defensive needs?????

I'd be worried and praying he'd be a locker room cancer for the Colts or as bad as he seemed in Oakland.

Serious question for you, Workhorse. How would the media and fans of Indy react if the Colts had picked up Moss?
