    Will the Vikings look to move Moss?

    Randy Moss' act in Minnesota is getting old and it's time for the Vikings to ship him out of town. At least that's the noise coming from both major papers in the Twin Cities.

    Moss, who essentially missed five games this season with a hamstring injury, finished the year with 49 catches for 767 yards and 13 touchdowns. But his production was overshadowed by his controversial actions, like the well-documented "mooning" in Green Bay as well as his decision leave the game against Washington when there were still two seconds left on the clock.

    Actions like those, as well as issues from his past in Minnesota, have opened up the rumor mill in the Twin Cities and have led many to wonder if Moss is worth all the trouble that follows him.

    Leading up to, and then following, the Vikings' season-ending loss to the Eagles on Sunday, a game in which Moss had as many drops (three) as he did receptions, sports writers from the Star Tribune and the St. Paul Pioneer Press speculated how the Vikings might deal with Moss this off-season.

    They also looked at possible ways the Vikings might be able to ship him out of town.

    Rumor in Viking country is that Arizona is the main team interested, since Denny Green drafted him.

          You are right. We couldn't use the best receiver in the league.

            Best WR in league was invisible Sunday

            Imagine what it would take to get him. Far too much

              It would cost $$$,$$$,$$$ to get him. He accounted for 40% of the Vikes salary cap a year or so ago.

                He was playing on one leg. You let Moulds off for that why not Moss? Yes it would probably take too much to get him but if the deal was right why not?

                  Moss wouldn't fit in in Buffalo. He may have the most talent in the league at his position, but he doesn't always show up. He's even said that he plays when he wants to. What kind of chemistry would we have with him? Too much baggage.

                      It's hard to argue against his attitude. HOWEVER, to play Devil's Advocate, Terrell Owens was seen as somebody NOBODY wanted, and while he has trash-talked his usual self this past season, he's been nothing but wonders for the Eagles (until he got hurt, of course). Owens put up big numbers and helped Donovan McNabb have his best season by far. All while getting along well with his teammates and the fans (they worship him down there!).

                      Yes, Moss looks like a total problem child in Minnesota. But sometimes things change when you get a change of scenery. Not always, but sometimes.

                      That being said, it would be almost unthinkably hard to probably get him, but not impossible. He would sure be an upgrade over Josh Reed and Sam Aiken. Moss, Moulds, and Lee Evans would make more than a nice tandem.

                      Even Bledsoe couldn't screw that up.

                        The only place I see him going if anywhere is Baltimore. He'd fit right in there.

                            I can't stand TO either but I would have to say TO isn't quite as bad as Moss. TO is just an ass on the field...he's not out getting busted for drugs or running people over like that Randy
