NFL: Moss waived by Vikings

[Mr Janny]

I've been a Chili defender. I've given him the benefit of the doubt multiple times. But, after finding out that this was his decision, and that the Wilfs had no part of it, and are in fact angry about it, I'm done with Chili. I think Brad put the final nail in his coffin with this move. Let's promote Leslie Frazier, and get it done with.

Yeah I was a little shocked after hearing this. Stupid move on his part, one that probably just cost him his job (at least I hope)

Sounds like this story will just get more and more interesting.

everyone in that organization has failed epically.

LOL well said!

Jon Gruden would be a nice coach.

This is Childress's problem. Randy Moss is Randy Moss. You are a fool if you expected something different.

I've said it before but the only good thing to come out of this mess of a season is that Childress will be gone after the season.

They must be trying to squeeze a draft pick out of somebody. Naturally when the Pats did this they kept absolutely mum and were able to get a 3rd rounder instead of letting it leak that they were cutting the player giving away all leverage in the transaction. Considering that the Vikes are trying to move a guy they just traded for they weren't going to have much leverage anyway but, it's interesting to see how two different organizations handle their business.

There is that whole thing about the trade deadline being 3 weeks ago...

Jon Gruden would be a nice coach.

He would have actually been a good coach last year for the Vikings, but Gruden can't deal with rookies... he will always sign veterans and play them over talented rookies.

Next year, in a possible rebuilding year? Terrible fit.

I called Randy Moss a cancer the other day. Altough I don't like the Vikings, they did the right thing in removing the tumor. Howie Long said Randy Moss would make a good Viking team a great team. Wonder what he's thinking now ...

Jon Gruden would be a nice coach.

Why would he want to coach in the MetroDump?

all i know is Sage was very happy to be traded away from favre and the vikes.

 

[simesclone]

Right on all points!!! I read comments attributed to Brad Johnson and Gus Ferrotte that they nicknamed Childress VK - Veteran Killer. He's not open to the players and it's his way or the highway. Obviously, his way is without a clue...

Everyone knows Moss is a cancer for a team. Every team he's been on has dumped him.

 

[CycloneYoda]

Watching Favre and the Vikings fail has been a sweet surprise. Wish AP could get out of that place. Philly would love him.

Most NFL QB's would...if they couldn't get past 3rd string

 

[Cyclonesrule91]

Jon Gruden would be a nice coach.

I'd take Gruden for a coach. He'd run a tighter ship then whose there now.

 

[Bubbahotep]

He's going to Cleveland, so forget about Gruden.

Your prediction may be spot on, but I must wonder what else your crystal ball is telling you. It is very difficult to predict the future actions of others.

2) Let Taylor go when they did not have a 3rd down solution, and still don't.
.

I think everybody knew that Chester was not coming back to the Vikings in free agency. What I never understood was why they didn't trade him and get something of value for the guy? He could be a starting RB a lot of places.
Major Dad needs to hit the highway.

has nothing to do with third string, more of a dislike issue of a certain someone.

Moss' condescending and disrespectful comments at the Vikings post-practice team dinner last Friday is what started the wheels in motion. His performance Sunday and his comments after the game sealed his fate. I still personally feel he is the 2nd best receiver all time in the NFL and could have been the best had he just shut his mouth. He'll land in the AFC West somewhere. Chargers have the first shot, but they just signed Vincent Jackson. Oakland might take him so the Chiefs can't, but there may be bad blood there still. Chiefs will take him for sure if he everyone ahead of them passes.
