I would think Bills again since they have a lot of injuries and he was there before. Albeit shortly.

He had a great season last year. I still call him "butterfingers" Lewis.

This year, it seemed that he wasn't getting the ball enough, but when the ball goes his way. It's either overthrown or he drops it!

I think every time we give a Jaguar player a contract extension. The following year their stats decline tremendously.

I could potentially see the Patriots signing TO if they are confident he is healthy. If they did sign him they'd definitely cut Ocho because they wouldn't want those 2 together again. Still, the Patriots are lacking a deep threat and TO was effective last year so I don't think it's out of the question, but if I had to guess I would say the Pats don't sign TO.

Wideouts were good this week, but only had 4 receptions against the Chiefs. A vertical threat would help them, which is what they've tried to find all season with Ochocinco, Brandon Tate, Taylor Price, Matthew Slater, and most recently Tyquan Underwood(who dropped a surefire touchdown yesterday). I'm not saying it's likely to happen, but I wouldn't say it isn't possible.

In all honesty, if the Pats are "desperate" enough to sign T.O., they would be much better hashing things out with Randy Moss and bringing him back into the fold. People would be way more worried about him down the field than T.O., who's older and had surgery recently.

How quickly people forget. Last year Randy Moss had 28 receptions for three teams. Meanwhile, Terrell Owens had 72 receptions for nearly one thousand yards.

Interestingly, Moss and Owens are tied with 153 career touchdowns.

Both have always been examples of mercurial receivers with all the talent in the world. Both had all the tools to break Jerry Rice's record but never put in the work to do it and were hard to deal with so they bounced from team to team throughout their careers, which is why they are both out of football right now. I believe Randy had 0 TDs after going to the Titans last year? I may have been one of the few people who were actually not surprised by that.

That's because the Pats cut him early, the Vikings really only used him for one game and it was garbage, and the Titans barely used him at all. Whereas T.O. basically just cannibalized Chad JOHNSON'S receptions and yardage.

So, the reason Moss didn't produce last year was because three NFL franchises didn't play him despite paying him millions of dollars, but that doesn't reflect upon his ability to play the position. Am I getting that right?

The Pats cut him due to issues off the field, the Vikings had Brett Favre in his "old and busted" year throwing to him, and the Titans already had Britt.

Without a doubt the Vikings picking him up didn't make a lick of sense. Then they got rid of him and the Titans did the same thing. He can't just show up to a new team with a QB who's never thrown to him and be magic. But him and Brady had quite the rapport, and it couldn't do much harm. If anything it opens up the field for Welker, Branch, Gronk, and Hernandez.

Ya know, if the Pats had a run game, they'd be scary as hell.

They do, it's called feeding the ball to the Law Firm early and often, he's quite the load and an excellent short yardage weapon.

Any guy can get the 2-3 yards on a carry. I'm talking a run game like AP, Foster, Forte, Rice, McFadden. Sub 4 YPC is nothing to brag about. Especially when he usually doesn't have any dynamic monster runs. His longest carry this year is 18 yards.

SI's Peter King reports that the Dolphins will waive Sage Rosenfels from the non-football illness list so that he can sign with the Texans.
Rosenfels has been hampered by a mysterious blood infection with the Giants and Dolphins this season. If healthy, he'd certainly be an asset to a Texans team that has lost starter Matt Schaub (foot) and backup Matt Leinart (collarbone) to year-ending injuries. Rosenfels spent three seasons with the Texans, starting 10 games between 2006 and 2008. Note that he'd be subject to waivers if the Dolphins do elect to release him. Regardless, T.J. Yates is locked in as the Texans' starter for the immediate future.

So who are the Texans planning on starting next week? Yates?
