we should sign moss

think about it, he is a big receiver that can stretch the field (even at his age) and he could go out in purple, where he belongs. on top of this, he would be dirt cheap to bring in because no one wants him.

Sign him for one day. Have him retire a viking. I would love that. Not sure about bringing him back. He'd have a hard time with our qb situation.

I think it's more beneficial for the team for them to work on getting Winfield back.
As much as I loved Moss I would take Simpson over Moss right now. Simpson has a chance to give you a productable few years and has a way better upside imo. Moss gives you one, maybe 2, subpar years at best. Besides after the last fiasco with him I hope the Vikings stay as far away from him as humanly possible.

It's kind of insane to watch a bunch of 49ers tape and see him open but Smith/Kaepernick not throwing his way. He was still an effective run blocker for the 49ers and had some nice splash plays last year. More than we can say about any of our post-Harvin WRs we had..

I, for one, would love Moss back--but ONLY if he's matured some. Okay, if he matured a lot. I love Moss, but his atttitude sucked the last time around--and there are NO excuses for that. He should be more respectful, grateful, and quite frankly more grown up than that! I was super bummed when we cut him, but after hearing the stuff he did and said--I was happy. No man is bigger than the team--nope, not even Moss, and definitely not little ol' Harvin.

Moss hasn't done SQUAT since '09. Maybe that humbled him; maybe that finally made him grow up a bit. I have no clue. He was on a winning team last year, so it's hard to tell. But people came out and criticized his Super Bowl effort, too. It's ridiculous. I'm not sure how much I believe that, but the point is: Moss needs to lay it all out there, and shut down the critics. To get your effort questioned in the Super Bowl is outrageous. The guy just can't win. lol.

But, I wouldn't mind having Moss back. Only if he grew up, though--and he's serious about winning and helping this team unselfishly. Is that possible? I'd hope so. As I said, he hasn't done diddly in YEARS! The only thing he has to pout about is himself. His toxic attitude and laziness that ruined what could have been the best career by a WR ever. But, more immediate than that, he should pout that he's failed to get 1,000 receptions. Not doing ANYTHING for the past few years has prevented him from that.

He's at 982 now. I would LOVE to have the scrub back as a cheap red zone threat. You know deep down Minnesota loves him, and he'll always love Minnesota. If he can't get excited to play for the Vikings fans--and with little ol' AP, he should just retire. But if he has ANYTHING left--anything at all--he should beg for a spot to play for us, and get those 18 receptions.

Moss and the Dome should reunite for one last season. Let them go out with a bang! :govikes:

I love Moss(pretty obvious from my username), main reason I'm a Vikes fan in the first place... But the guys done as being a significant player in the league.

Of course we should!!! :wink:



I think we should sign Randy to a ceremonial contract to retire as a Viking, but an actual contract? Probably not.

I like this idea. Sometimes though, I wonder if Moss wants to be remembered as a Viking. Alot of idiots here, exp. in the media, gave him a hard time over what was really nothing. He is always going to be one of my all time favorite NFL players and personalities.

I'd sign him for the right price.

And you'll have just as many rings as he ever will.

Locker room cancer. A grade A little brat. Deserved every ring he's never going to have. Quit on the team repeatedly. "Play when I want to play" is right. doesn't care about anything but himself. Go to locker room before game is even over? Aw just randy being randy. Stays behind and uses press conference to heap praise on opponent? Aw just randy being randy. If I worked with a #### like him I'd punch him in his worthless face!

Good riddance and keep that garbage as far away from this team as possible.
