For what it's worth I don't remember him having issues in the past ever. He is 32 so he's been in the league. If he was a problem guy I think everyone would know by now. He is getting screwed over up there for making very measured comments that were basically correct. The gist of what he said was that they should have been RUNNING the ball more when they had the lead and throwing less since they have an inexperienced QB. Losman straight up lost the game for them on an interception and he shouldn't have been throwing in the first place. Moulds didn't come out all mouthy trying to start trouble. He simply stated the obvious. It is important to note he wasn't bitching about touches either. He was pointing out what they needed to do to win and not so incidentally it didn't involve him getting the ball. He was frustrated that he was benched for 3 quarters and I think he might have a point there since they don't have more than one guy who is as good or better than him. Mularkey says Moulds "took" himself out but that's not what Moulds says. Don't know why a guy would take himself out and then say the coach had benched him. Something is up there and I am going to give Moulds some benefit of the doubt since he hasn't shown himself to be a jerk in the past.
As to whether we should pursue him I would be cautious. His talent has diminished and he is aging so I'd only advoacte getting him on the cheap which I am guessing won't happen. If he can play for a couple seasons somewhere close to his top level he would be great for us. We still need to develop a young WR in the comign seasons though.
