Baltimore Ravens v New England Patriots - Wild Card Round

Randy Moss has all but given up in New England.  Leading up to what will be his fourth season with the Patriots, Randy Moss doesn’t think he’ll be a Patriot after his contract runs out after the 2010 season.

Randy Moss is essentially quiting, again, on a team that has given him a chance to prove that he is one of the best receivers in NFL history — tell me you didn’t see this coming.  The Patriots took a gamble on the problem player, a player who proved in Oakland that he doesn’t play for the team, he plays for himself.  People bought into the hype that he would become a team player in New England.  They believed that if anyone could keep Randy Moss in line, the immortal Bill Belichick could.  Because as we all know, Bill Belichick is the greatest coach in NFL history.  He’s a defensive genius and demands respect from his players, and became one of the founders of the “Patriot Way.”  He has three rings after all, so by default he has to be great right?

The fact remains that Randy Moss plays for no one but Randy Moss.  Randy Moss only plays when Randy Moss wants to.
