I was semi paying attention, as I was also studying, but the play around the goal line where the ball was just thrown up into the air and there was an obvious holding call against the man guarding Randy.

Did anyone else feel like Randy not could have caught that ball, but SHOULD have caught the ball. He gave up on the play.

My apologies as I only caught the replay on a non dvr TV and haven't seen a replay of it yet, wanted to know what everyone else thought.

Did a search, I can't see find it if y'all have discussed thus already.

He's a piece of fricking shite, cry baby. I don't have him in any of my fantasy teams; I'm just tired of his bullshite moves when things don't go 100% his way. Grow the frick up.

Randy Moss hasnt given 100% since he he left Minnesota for Oakland.

He bitches every game he doesnt get the ball more than 3 times a game even when he has been double covered pretty much his entire career.

If Moss had the slightest bit of patience he might be able to salvage his career.

I know I looked like a complete moron when I did it, but I tried trading him and couldn't get anything for him. Finally I reached a deal, I sent Adrian Peterson and Randy Moss for Rice and Megatron.

I didn't care about losing AP. That's how sick and tired I got of Randy. Dude literally jogs on every route unless hes running the 9 route.

I made the mistake of drafting him on year and swore to never do so again.

He could have and should have caught it. On the Patriots board I visit, they were actually saying it was a great play by Meriweather to grab his jersey. Its sad to see that much talent obviously pissed and upset that he bitched his way out of New England.

Kyle Arrington was very physical with him at the line of scrimmage throughout the game. He definitely slowed him down more than usual getting downfield. Did a great job for just his 5th career start.

Arrington is great with the go runners and stopping the run, its a shame hes pretty bad at every thing else

Butler needs to get his shite together, I understand hes not exactly a poster boy for bend don't break, but he showed so much promise last year.

I know, they act like he's some worthless piece of garbage that nobody wants. When he hit the open market, he'll get paid.

I only watched the 1st half before I went out, but Moss was double and triple covered the whole time. Harvin running underneath routes was open almost every time. It reminded me a lot of the Dolphins-Pats game.

Cannot believe the VIkes were dumb enough to trade legit picks for him. He is a true POS in every sense of the word.

He's the very definition of Cancer on a football team.

If Moss catches that ball (which he should have), Favre doesn't get fricked up on the next play.

I think the idea that Randy Moss never plays hard is largely a myth.

He does, however, take plays off, unlike a guy like Andre Johnson.

I think he actually plays harder than most give him credit for.

He's also got a few screws loose.

Is that why he has been on 2 different teams with regular season records of 15-1 and 16-0?

Yeah, I don't believe in cancers.

New England and Minny didn't magically lose those seasons just because "Randy is a cancer and it finally came out!"

Moss has been known to take some plays off here and there. But at the end of the day you'd usually rather have him on the team because he opens up a lot for other players. He's the most effective decoy in the history of the NFL.

The only problem is you need your other guys to make plays when teams are going to go through all the effort to completely take him out of a game
