Got to agree that the Falcons are too concerned with chemistry to try Randy Moss. I'm not really sure who would roll the dice on him right now without an injury creating a big need. Maybe the Chicago Bears based on needs or the Jets based on organization cockiness.

Another thought is the Colts. They have a strong leader and organization, so they could possible get him to fly right. They also have a lot of injuries, so they have a need.

Off topic...but I always thought that Moss had a much worse attitude then T.O. Owens was annoying but his effort was as good as any receiver in the league when it came to running routes and blocking. Moss simply gave up any time he was faced with adversity.

TO is a much more complete receiver. Moss is terrible route runner. He runs 3 routes. He stretches the field. His impact helps the other WRs a lot.

No Moss to Atlanta...please.
It would mess with the chemistry and with his "ME" attitude, I don't think he would mesh with a better WR getting more of the looks.
I am content with our WR core. Roddy and Jenkins are solid and Douglas is alright.

I don't think Moss is really 'selfish' or a 'me-first' guy so much as a guy who has little-to-no willpower and is a major frontrunner, as well as kind of a douchebag. I think the only teams he'd actually work on would be teams which have a need at WR and are already contenders even with a gap at WR, while also having strong leadership to keep him in line.
That leaves... the Colts, Patriots, Ravens, and possibly the Chiefs.
BTW, apparently Moss is such a huge douchebag that he actually surpasses LeBron:

Randy Moss would be perfect for us on the field and to open things up, but he won't work under our ownership.
Yahoo! Sports' Michael Silver reports that Randy Moss' "boorish" behavior in a locker room incident last Friday contributed to the Vikings' decision to cut him loose.
A favorite local restaurant catered the Vikings' buffet Friday. Moss went up to the table and yelled, "What the [expletive]? Who ordered this crap? I wouldn't feed this to my dog!" Per the St. Paul Pioneer-Press, the room got quite except for one player who said, "Shut the (expletive) up, Randy." Brett Favre even shot Moss the stink eye. The Vikes also had concerns about Moss' poisonous attitude rubbing off on Percy Harvin. Coach Brad Childress reportedly explained, "This just doesn't fit with how we treat people, how we talk to people and how we act." Nov. 2 - 3:15 pm et

I really don't think Moss would be good on the Falcons. Atlanta is not a city conducive to people with character issues reforming.
I'm still wondering why Norwood never gets any burn. That guy has jets, has great agility, can catch, and should be getting way more playing time. Heck, why not put him at the WR3 spot and throw him some screens or deep routes like the Giants do with Mario Manningham?

We are the last team that would consider Randy Moss. Remember we said no to Randy Moss before even before the recent debacles. Could have had a Vick to Moss connection back in the day

The Titans have claimed him.
