I am not saying it WILL happen

but what if the JETS came in with an offer for MOSS that the Patriots could not match?

It would be smart for the JETS, because they would weaken the Patriots and strengthen themselves at the same time.

They have plenty of cap space too.

I know we may soon have an answer, but I still think not using the franchise tag here was extremely risky and asking for trouble

NO its not happening, Belichick would not let this happen, plus if that happened , who is covering Moss?? That would be more scary for us.. But Im still being the optimist, Moss will be a Pat

There would be no need for a poison pill. The Patriots don't have the right to match offers to Moss. He could, and I think will, give the team the opportunity to "match" any offer he receives, but unlike with restricted/franchised/transition players, the Pats would not have to match verbatim the terms of the other teams offer. In other words, they could remove any parts of the offered contract they don't like and supplement those sections with their own terms.

He is not a restricted free agent so I don't see where a poisin pill comes in.

Who is going to throw him the ball? Clemens is not very accurate and Pennington cant throw it that far.

Look - He's not going there. It comes down to one thing with Randy, and it's not money, it's who's trowing him the ball. The Jets and 90% of the rest of the league is just another Oakland to him - He wants to play catch with a Hall of Fame passer......he has that here.

He passed on Brett and Green Bay to come here last year - He likes the system, like the coach, loves the owner and likes to on the cover of sports illustrated - Who's going to get him there? Pennington? Delhome? Please.

Of course, the money has to be there as well. He ain't playing for peanuts - but I promise...he is playing for New England.

Moss is playing now for the Ring and HOF. The Jets aren't going anywhere.

If moss wants to lose 10+ games a year the Jets or Panthers would be a perfect fit, but i dont think his intentions are just all about the biggest contract. Not saying he is a lock to remain here but not a chance scrub teams like that have any shot at him.

I hope you are correct.
It seems that right now the Jets are focused on Faneca.

But given the bad blood between the Organizations, I would be surprised if it did not cross their mind.
Apparently Coles is not 100% and their offense sucked last year.
