So, it appears that Randy Moss may get traded to the Ravens. I can’t comment on how good this move is for the Vikings, because I haven’t seen what they are going to get in return. If they can get two first round picks and Terrell Suggs (or somehow get Ed Reed) I say they have to do it. The Vikings are deep at receiver and if Mike Tice ever learns what the term “offensive balance” means, they can get along without Moss. As they proved while he was hurt, they can still function without him. If they allow the ground game to work a bit, it will turn out fine. Maybe they can put one of those draft picks with Michael Bennett and get another defensive back. So, it might work out for the Vikings, contingent on what they get for him.
I also can’t really comment on how this will affect the Ravens. I think it could have a Terrell Owens type effect, in theory. But there was probably a reason the Owens vetoed that trade to the Ravens, don’t you think? Probably thought it over and saw the great defense. Saw the fantastic running game with Jamal Lewis leading the way. So what was the problem? Why wouldn’t Owens want to be part of that?
And that’s where we come to the one thing I know for sure; how this is going to affect Randy Moss. The problem the Ravens have is Kyle Boller, plain and simple. If they had a decent quarterback at all, Owens would have been there this year. Maybe they can give Gino Torretta a call and see what he is up to? Do you think they wouldn’t kill to have Ryan Leaf as their quarterback right now? Maybe they can stop by the local Safeway and see if he can take a couple of shifts off and teach Boller how to be a better NFL QB.
Do you think Moss will make Kyle Boller cry? I would bet on yes. Because Moss seems like he can be an ass and Boller is one diaper away from taking over for the Charmin baby. I think there's a 50/50 chance Moss pulls a Najeh Davenport on Bollers’ locker when he only sees the ball thrown his way 4 times in the game. I know Randy is going to throw up in his mouth when Boller throws out one of these patented lines (which was one of his lines against Indy and summed up his season)…

Ahhh...to be a receiver on the Ravens! They must all live in raindrop castles on lollipop lane, not believing the luck they have to have such a "gifted" QB and "offensive-minded" coach who doesn't take himself too seriously. I think there's a good chance Johnny Moxen could be a better QB than Boller. As long as Billick calls for the Hook and Ladder, the Mox is your man…
You know what one of Boller's big "selling points" was when he was drafted? He could kneel on the 50 and throw the ball through the uprights! Wow! Seriously! That is one of the reasons Billick moved up in the draft to get him. How often does that come into play? Once in a career? Maybe? But you're going to trade up to get him because of that? If some scout had suggested that, he’d still be looking for work today, but because “The Genius” said it, no one could question it.
I hear Jason White can juggle two chainsaws and an apple at the same time. Do you think Billick would make him the first pick because of that? God, I hate the Baltimore, Billick and Boller...They’re like the three B’s of the Apocalypse.
