By Mike Freeman | National NFL InsiderThe San Francisco 49ers have added Randy Moss to their team. By the middle of the season, maybe sooner, they'll wish they hadn't.
This is the way it is with Moss. Teams become infatuated with that talent. They think he still has blazing speed. The coach, in this case Jim Harbaugh, will be the latest to think he can control Moss. No one can. No one ever has. But that is the allure of Moss. The fool's gold of it all.
Moss has wrecked teams before and, in fact, has wrecked almost every team he's played for. He provided the Patriots with one great season and then became a cancer. They got rid of Moss despite desperately needing a deep threat. He went back to Minnesota. They booted him. He went to Tennessee. They booted him.
Now he's in san Francisco and you'll hear all the same stuff you've heard before. Harbaugh can control him. Moss is misunderstood. Moss is actually a good teammate.
None of that is true. The truth is that Moss blows teams up or in the case of the Patriots quickly wears out his welcome. The same thing will happen in San Francisco.
You can count on it.
