He started blaming the coaches and said the Giants had the better gameplan. It was true but you dont throw your coaches under the bus like that. They were the only ones to give you a chance after all the times you have let down your team. This trend has happened this past season as well. First, he puts himself in that situation with that girl. Whether he did it or not, he should not be around those people. Second, he didnt even celebrate with the team after the AFCCG; he just ran off the field.

I dont want him back.

He will probably chase the money. Last night he said the show will go on even if he is not on the Patriots next year. That told me alot right there.

Goodbye Randy, dont let the door hit you

He scorred the go-ahead touchdown....?

As much as I love Moss in a Pats jersey, I think it is time for him to move on. His playoff performance has sealed that decision for me in my mind. People are going to say well Welker wouldn't have been successful if it wasn't for Moss, correct me if I am wrong but how did Troy Brown get it done without a reciever like Moss lining up on the other side? I think what bothers me about Moss is that for a guy who wanted to win and win a superbowl his motivation wasn't anywhere to be seen. His unwillingness to run in routes bothers me as basically it is a run down the field and catch the ball, I thought that was Stallworths job? He is not worth the money he is going to want.

I want to see Chad Johnson in a Pats uniform over Moss next season. If it takes the 7 pick I would give it up for Chad.

I'm sorry folks but 23 tds doesn't do it for me to keep Moss, plus it is not the Patriots way.

I think some of you lost more than a game last night.

Moss has been a model player and he WANTS to be here and has bought into our system. He will sign a team friendly deal and be here for the next 3-4 years.

You want to let someone walk, how about Asante "Butterfingers" Samuel. Talk about overrated.

And now we've suffered a loss, things are a little down and you turn your back on him for seemingly no reason at all. All Moss has done all season long is behave and play like a Patriot player, done whats been asked and made our offence a little bit more dangerous. Just a little though...

Knee jerk reaction is putting this mildly.

Moss is a OK guy and he should be in this team next year. I agreed with what he said. Our guys did not have the same energy as we expected and i don't know if you noticed that BB allowed his players to make their own decisions in a critical moment.

Normally, BB will call a timeout and discuss any new changes to O or D players.

I wonder what happened to halft time adjustment.? We did not have any reinforcement during the game. When we played again Jag, tired players were out and new players were in and we kept doing that during the game.

We did not see this kind of thing happen yesterday.

He'll be looking to be paid as the highest paid WR in the league. Is it REALLY worth the Pats to invest all their eggs into Moss and risk any future FA? The Pats hasn't paid anyone like that in the past, I don't see it happening this year. Not that Moss sucks, just that he's going to want more than the Pats will be willing and able to give.

***NEPatriot*** · 02-04-2008, 04:52 PM

Moss publicly said that he wanted to stay with Pats. With that said, I assume that Moss is not interested in big salary.

we will see how everything is in the next 4 months.

I completely disagree with the OP. Without Moss, there's no way in hell the Patriots would have had a chance at history or would Welker have had such an outstanding season. Relax. Moss broke the NFL record for receiving TD's, scored the go ahead TD in the SB, and you're throwing him under the bus? Wow. The guy dominated the entire year... you can't realistically expect that teams won't do anything about that in the post season.

As for DojoChargerfan's post, if Moss asks for more money than the Patriots are willing to give then I think he's not as smart as he appeared this year... that is, taking less money for a chance to win it all. And even less money is no small change here... it's not like he needs it. The Dolphins will pay him dearly for his services if all he wants is money... but if you were in his shoes, what would you do? Take a multi-year, multi million $$$ contract (let's say highest paid receiver in the league) with a huge signing bonus from the Dolphins OR take less money and stay with the Patriots?

I don't know about you, but all the money in the world is not going to help when you're consistently 1-15.
