This could be the piece they need to finally win the AFC Championship. Rex Ryan is no dummy. If he signs Moss then it is because Ryan knows something others do not.

Randy will not extend or cross the middle any longer. Too bad, he was incredible to watch.

I disagree. Giving Moss an incentive laden contract puts the team in the driver’s seat because if he wants to meet the incentives he has to put out real effort.

The problem last year, and with the Vikings at the end, and with the Raiders at the end, was that he’d already pocketed most of the money in the deals and he had no monetary incentive to continue to play at a high level.

The man does not play for pride he plays for money. The way to keep him honest is to make him play every play for the money.

I’d make the incentives based purely on plays on the field. Then if Moss starts to slack the coaches pull him off the field and it costs him money and if he keeps slacking they cut him and the money flow stops.

How are you gonna talk smack about Sanchez when Chad Henne is yours? When asked about Henne, your own O.C. had this to say “Oh, yeah he’s on our roster.”
Phailures.

A couple weeks of that and moss goes off.

Sign big stars on the downside of their career? If Rex Ryan loves Moss so much then why didn’t he put in a waiver in for him last season when the Vikes cut him? The Titans were the ONLY team to put one in for Moss.

You know that the Titans, Chargers, and Broncos are in the NFL right? They let go all kinds of useful talent.

This seems like a hey your not the only big ticket item out there move by the Jets.

Two mouths in Rex and Moss would be a disaster. It’s bad enough as it is with Rex spouting off Ll the time. Put Moss there in post game interviews would only be worse.

The last thing that you want to give Moss is “an incentive laden contract.” That will only make him more concerned with his individual production, as opposed to team goals.

But it’s hard to think of some perennial loser who hasn’t already had at least one of them on the team. Hmm.

Give him an incentive laden contract and he could easily be a top 5 WR next season.

The other thing that’s important to realize is that no WR has hit his mid 30′s with this much left in the tank since Jerry Rice. It’s not likely that Moss will play to 40 given his past history of taking years off when he’s not happy but if he did he’d be a clear threat to Rice’s records although probably having to play into his early 40′s to reach them.
