EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) - Randy Moss could miss a game for the first time in his NFL career, but the Minnesota Vikings won't decide before Friday whether he'll be forced out by a strained right hamstring.
Coach Mike Tice described the injury as more than mild, but Moss could be able to play a limited role in next weekend's home game against the Tennessee Titans.

BUMP
This does not trouble me greatly!
he'll play just to draw the double coverage.
Bad news for you.
My Saints aren't good enough to win a game, but I guess they can still hurt people. (not much consolation)
Seriously, I hope he's alright. I saw him in Houston last weekend, and last night in the Superdome. Incredible athlete, and he's seems to have matured a bit from previous years.
You know your team is bad when you go to the game to see the opposition. lol.
Wow. Who will the refs allow to push off now?
if he's out for a few weeks,good,nothin against minnesota..but the lions need to win lol
Sounds like sour grapes to me. :) I bleed red, white, blue, and purple by the way!
Randy Moss may be able to catch anything thrown near him, but anyone who regularly watches the Vikings knows he never catches a break from the officials.
He sure got a break when he pushed off to score a TD against the Cowboys this year.
Nobody. Moss is virtually the only receiver in football they call for offensive pass interference anyway.
Has he grown up yet?
I wish Randy well. I also wish he'd clean up his mouth.
A little bit of "Medicinal" Marijuana will make all the pain go away for your typical pro-athlete.
Sour grapes? Nope. It's not like he's won a Super Bowl or anything. :)
No Super Bowl victory yet. It's gonna happen.
Could be. Culpepper sure is playing his butt off this year. Going to give Manning a run for his money on the MVP. Depends on their weak defense I guess. Philly looks awful tough and will probably represent the NFC this year.
I DO, however, remember Drew Pearson pushing off Nate Wright 29 years ago to catch a Hail Mary pass from Roger Staubauch that stopped the best-ever Vikings team on their march to what would have been their first Super Bowl Championship.
So, please don't talk to me about Viking receivers pushing off Cowboy defenders.
The guys doing the commentary on ESPN later caught it. The refs have also screwed the Cowboys out of more than one Super Bowl, too. This was back when the Cowboys had good teams in the 70s and 90s.
