And before people pile on...listen why. Because addition by subtraction. Meaning we don't want Seattle or the Rams to get him. And alos...Moss, Fitzgerald and Breasten is off the charts good. Put DA in there where his strength is DEEP PASSES DEEP PASSES....Let Randy do what he wants...Just run Straight Deep Post Patterns.....YOU CANT single cover him and that would open up huge RUNNING lanes......I think it would be a great move . He knows Fitz real well...And we use the deep ball. Fitz would even get open...Who do you cover???? And DA can't OVERTHROW Randy Moss!

We certainly can afford him. I think your reasoning is good, Campos, because if DA is the QB, he can get it down the field and that is Moss' strength. Plus, I think we miss the triple threat that Q added. Count me in...and get this...by losing yesterday we can claim him before Seattle and St. Louis can. Yet, the 49ers have first dibs in the division if they want him...and that would not be a total surprise.

He would be such a pain in the ass here it's not even funny. If we had a QB that could A) get him the ball on a somewhat consistent basis and B) be a commanding presence in the locker room, I'd be all for it. But this year, he's tear this team apart.

Moss is great, but there isn't anybody DA couldn't overthrow.

Fitz and Breaston are a great 1-2 combo. We don't need to add a malcontent to the mix. What we need to do is find a way to get our running game going.

But can anybody honestly seeing Moss get along with Singletary?

The first time Randy jogged on a route that he wasn't the target on, or faked an injury and limped(he does it constantly), Singletary would bench him for the rest of the game.

I could see Seattle, Moss' agent said they already called, Carroll is willing to take people like that because he's convinced he can get them to play for him. Sometimes he can, sometimes he can't.

One of the comments apparently from Vikings insiders off the record is the coaches decided they didn't want their young stars like Peterson, Rice and Harvin to be around Moss, they thought he was already making a bad influence on them.

I'm rarely on board with a Cards_Campos idea but I do think the Cardinals could benefit from having Randy Moss. We don't have that deep threat guy.

My biggest concern with bringing someone like Moss in would be in Breaston seeing the bench more. Despite missing a few games, Breaston has been the offensive MVP of the team so far this year.

Personally, I'd prefer to see a lot more 2TE sets with only 2WR, or 1TE with a FB, but since Whis insists on having 3-4 WR on the field at a time; then I would like to add the deep threat. Moss would command a CB and over the top help on almost every passing play, and DA missing Moss deep is just an incomplete pass rather than a tipped interception.

Yamon, the QB problems plus Moss = all pay and no play, mixed with a weekly soap opera.

Normally I would Agree...But it brings the Cards to the forefront in the NFL....At worst it makes us relevant....2nd..No way Moss acts up again...He knows his leash is short...3rd...Just let him go deep...DA can heave with the best....It opens up the middle of the field..Look at Percy Harvin at Minnesota...4th...We don't want the Seahawks to get him...

I am saying use him to his strengths...Post Pattern Randy....Breasten in the slot would tear the league apart now.

Breaston would play the slot...and he would tear it up...Linebackers or slow safeties cover the slot...Reason why Wes Wlker tears it up and Breaston is 2 times faster.

If we do, maybe Whiz will want to throw the ball more...yea!

ROFL...But obviously since he isnt going to change...we might as well make it make sense. :D I mean he threw the ball 40 times with 2 UDFA playing receiver...SO why not put the 2nd best Receiver of all time on the field with FITZ(the 3rd best of all time as of now)

Its just giving Whiz another reason to throw, until we get a QB, that's no bueno. We already miss Fitz going deep wide open all the time, we have a deep threat getting paid big millys. Moss and his disfunctional attitude would wreck us. Brady and rings couldn't even keep him happy.

And you should stop posting 20 threads per day. There already is a Moss thread up.

I hope Moss goes to someone in the NFC West. He will automatically make the Rams, Hawks and 9ers worse. He will be a distraction and give the same half assed effort with them as he did with the Pats and Vikes. If he was complaining about his situation with the Pats, can you imagine the mess he would make in SEA, SF and STL?

Noooooo!!!

Moss is a lazy, selfish teammate who plays when he wants to play (his words). Moss would quit running routes on this team in week 2, given the QB situation.

Our Pagan Head Coach will never allow this. See Randy is not like Kurt, or Max. But more than Like Matt and Ben. Just young guys wanting to live life, and not have it dictated to them. Matt Ben and Randy have done questionable things, but at their ages who hasn't...Oh Yes, Whiz, Kurt, and Max.

Sorry to say this but I call them as I see them, and this really pains me to feel this way.

Uhhhh yeah, I am in the same age group as those three and I have never intentionally ran anyone down with my car (Moss) or unintentially for that matter. I have never thrown an alleged keg party for underage girls (Leinart), and have never been accused of sexual assault let alone 2 in one year (Roethlisberger). I know you're not a big fan of Wiz, but get a grip man. Questionable things are staying out too late partying and the like, not committing felonies and misdemeanors.

I think you guys are missing the point. 1 he would take triple teams off of Fitz...If you just send him on deep routes he will open the middle and running game. He would be worth the decoy for the little money. DA could then throw a bad deep pass and Randy might run it down. Breaston is a stud at Slot...and how can it really hurt now. Why are we worried about players that may bring baggage?!? Huh ...I mean WHiz is destroying the team and fan base by wanting to throw every down anyway...Why not give him a target to do so? Isn't the point ..If you have great receivers you dont need a great QB just get the ball near them...A great QB he can make bad receivers look good. Peyton and Brady can take average receivers and throw for 300 yards. DA's strengths are deep passes...Lets go Deep.

If he goes to the Rams, could be big trouble or a blessing for us. I don't know, but I don't want to find out.:shock:

I agree...and really why I would take him...So the Rams and Seahawks won't. All it takes is a coach and an attitude....Randy Moss is a great receiver even if he tries 80% of the time...I mean he is a deep threat...and you only throw deep 5 times a game....He and I would be happy if he caught 2 of them for 100 yards. But DRC would get eaten alive by Moss....How many team throw deep on us???? And complete 70% of them...yet we throw deep 1 time...INC and we never throw deep again...But we continue to throw 35+ times a game.

The Cards should sign Randy so he can fill us in on the Queens tendencies before Sunday's game. Then we can waive him too. Actually, now that I think of it, good Randy would be a nice bookend to Fitz. They would both be wide open deep and no QB on our roster could hit them.
