Is he not the #1 receiver on the team? Who's gonna fill in for him as the new #1 Nate Washington? Then who will be the solid #2?
Isn't Britt there go to guy and deep threat?

Nate Washington is a better deep threat if used right. This is all for nothing, as you still have Vince Young throwing, well, attempting to at least. Will Moss even play?

Yea I didn't know if he was there deep threat or not...But I thought he was there #1 receiver, but I could be wrong on that also. All I know is outside of Chris Johnson and Vince Young, the next name you hear the most on offense is Kenny Britt, that's why I figured he was there top receiver.
Sorry big eric....I didn't realize that he just had 1 good game, and other than that he is a joke, and doesn't need his spot taken. They gonna move javon ringer to WR and play as the #2? Because outside of Britt/Washington and Bo Scaife @ TE I can't name another offensive player.

Lots people thought Moss was going to be the difference maker in Minny and look how that worked out.
Titans are good team but this move alone doesn't make them Superbowl favorites or even AFC favorites.

Moss has been shut down this year. Pretty sure the safetys were cheatin up on AD and moss didn't torch anybody for the vikes. Tennessee, like tje patriots and vikes, is better off without moss.

Titans Claim Moss.Titans win Superbowl?
he Tennessee Titans passed on wide receiver Randy Moss once before, back in the 1998 draft.
Not again.
More from ESPN.com
The Vikings were a better team with Randy Moss. Time will tell if Brad Childress' bunch can survive the season without him, ESPN.com's Kevin Seifert writes. Blog
The Titans passed on Randy Moss in the 1998 draft (when they were the Tennessee Oilers), choosing Kevin Dyson at No. 16 instead, ESPN.com's Paul Kuhasky writes. Blog

• NFL Blog Network
The Titans claimed Moss off the waiver wire Wednesday, choosing not to take any risks with receiver Kenny Britt missing at least one game with an injured right hamstring.
Moss plans to report to the Titans, league sources told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
If Moss were to change his mind and doesn't report, Tennessee would send him a five-day letter and at the end of that five days, they would have the right to put him on the Reserve/Left Squad list. Then, he would be out for the remainder of the season. Moss' status for next season would then be determined by terms of the new collective bargaining agreement.
The Titans were No. 22 in the waiver claim order, which is determined by 2010 win-loss records. ESPN.com's John Clayton reported Tennessee was the only team to submit a claim for Moss.
Tennessee, then the Oilers, drafted Kevin Dyson with the 16th pick overall in 1998. They passed on Moss and said then it was because of concerns about his character. Coach Jeff Fisher, speaking three hours before Wednesday's waiver deadline, said the personnel department decided Dyson was a better fit.
"Randy has had a terrific career. He's a Hall of Fame receiver. You don't always make the right decision," Fisher said. "The draft is an imperfect science. We've had No. 1's that haven't panned out for us before."
Now the Titans are 5-3, a half-game back in the AFC South with five divisional games remaining down the stretch. Fisher said in a statement after the Titans were awarded Moss that the receiver offered an opportunity to upgrade their offense.
"Randy has been a tremendous threat where ever he has been," Fisher said. "We will bring him up to speed as quickly as possible."
Moss can help a team that has not won a playoff game since January 2004, and Fisher said Britt, who hurt his right hamstring in last week's 33-25 loss to San Diego, will miss the Titans' game Nov. 14 at Miami.
How quickly Moss joins the Titans remains to be seen. The Titans are on their bye and hold their last practice Thursday before breaking for the weekend. Players won't be due back until Tuesday, but agent Joel Segal said Moss will be heading to Tennessee.
"Randy's excited to get back playing football," Segal said. "He's ready to go and looking forward to get there."
The receiver going to his third team this season already is being welcomed. Safety Michael Griffin tweeted "welcome Randy Moss" and All Pro running back Chris Johnson had been lobbying for the Titans to pick up Moss as well. Johnson shares the same agent as Moss and had been telling Segal how much he wanted the receiver in Tennessee.
"Why do we need Randy Moss?" Johnson said Wednesday, before the move was announced. "You can't put eight in a box if you got Randy Moss out there on the outside. If you've got Randy Moss out there, you just can't play him one-on-one. I feel like Randy would be a great addition to this team, be a great addition to our receiving group and really help us go deep in the playoffs."
That's what matters most for the Titans.
Owner Bud Adams turns 88 in January, and this franchise's lone Super Bowl berth was way back in 2000. The Titans lost a wild-card playoff game in San Diego in the 2007 season and wasted the No. 1 seed and home-field advantage in 2008 with a divisional round loss.
Britt has the NFL's best game receiving this season with his 225 yards and three touchdowns Oct. 24, and Vince Young currently is the NFL's top rated passer at 103.1. But the Tennessee passing offense ranks 24th, averaging 187.6 yards per game.
"Randy is obviously a Hall of Fame player and has the ability to be a difference maker for our offense," Titans general manager Mike Reinfeldt said.
Moss is a relative bargain due about $3.34 million for the final eight games this season. He easily brings the best resume of any receiver for this team since leaving Houston. He has 948 career receptions for 14,778 yards and 153 touchdowns, though his numbers have dipped drastically this season in his stints first with New England and then Minnesota.
He has 22 catches for 313 yards and five TDs in eight games. In his four games with Minnesota, he had 13 catches for 174 yards and two touchdowns with the Vikings losing three of those four games to drop to 2-5.

These are the Oilers/Titans. As long as Bud Adams owns the team they ain't winning shit. Trust me, I followed the Oilers from the 70's until they left, Bud is a curse.
