WOW! Brad Childress next? Didn't they give up a 2nd or a 3rd rounder for him?

Just incredible. Wonder if his words after the game will get him back into a Patriots uniform this year? I know it's highly unlikely, but with his praise of the organization, if they show any interest in him this year, you have to think he heads back.

He stayed in Boston last night with his family instead of taking the team flight home. If there is a team to take a him, it'll be the Pats Im sure. Hell they got a third rounder, didnt have to pay him for 4 games and they get him back? WHY NOT?

Yea, if you are the Patriots, and he actually left on good terms (from all accounts he did), then it's a no brainer.

Why the fuck would they do that? I hope this isnt true, and I definitely hope the Pats don't catch a bullshit break with Moss again. I don't understand how the pats get so lucky with this type of bullshit.

Brad Childress is one of the biggest hypocrites on the planet. He Criticized Adrian Peterson for missing one day of mini camp, to attend his hometown who was honoring him, but he lets Favre miss anytime he wants the last two seasons. He blast Brett Favre last week and now he is sensitive about what Moss said? And also last I checked, Favre has openly questioned the head coach before. Smh......

Childress is gone. The only thing more certain is that the Cowboys will have an opening. Spielman has to take some responsibility as well, as I would imagine he's on his way out.

Its true.

Moss didn't seem to be giving too much effort the past two weeks. The 4th down play last week when he barely got his feet off the ground in his "attempt" to catch the ball that would have won the game and then yesterday on the play where he was interfered with, the ball landed about 3 feet from his feet and he made absolutely zero effort to catch the ball are 2 clear examples.

Both of those plays are just mind boggling, but with that said, didn't they know what they were getting?

ESPN just showed highlights of Moss hugging and joking with Brady, Belicheck, and the Patriots owner after the game yesterday. I smell a rat.

ESPN insider:
Randy Moss | Vikings
The Randy Moss experiment for the Minnesota Vikings is over. Michael Lombardi of the NFL Network reports that the team has released him as of Monday. According to protocol, Moss must now pass through waivers, meaning the teams with the worst records will have first dibs.
The Buffalo Bills, at 0-7, get the first shot, and usually they'd be categorically dismissed from this discussion. However, after their 2009 signing of Terrell Owens, nothing can be ruled out. The Carolina Panthers are next, at 1-6, although they appear as likely to sign Randy Moss as Randy Quaid.
Amongst the two-win teams, the team with the greatest need at WR is the Cleveland Browns. This doesn't necessarily mean the Browns will place a claim on Moss, but it'd make sense from an on-field standpoint if they did.
After that group, there's plenty of other teams who may be intrigued enough to place a claim. A return to the New England Patriots, however, could only happen if every other team passes, so don't dig your old No. 81 jersey back out just yet.

So how do waivers work in the NFL exactly? Worst teams in the NFC have a shot at him first?

*Idiot Troll shit.* AKA Dynasty.

LMAO at him always being "Mindboggled". If I had the time I would count everytime he was mindboggled in a week and we could finally declare him mentally handicapped.

I'd welcome him to Cleveland. I mean, when your top receiver is your TE who is 57/58th in receiving yards, you take what you can get.

No reason whatsoever. They already have two guys more talented than him (Austin and Bryant) and are already paying someone a monstrous salary(Wiliams).

Does Jones ever do things that make sense? And hes on record as saying that not drafting moss was one of his biggest regrets
