Stumpy

That is exactly my point! Except add Jones, Diggs, Hopkins and Jefferson.

I wasn't trying to call out anyone in particular. This has been going around for months on Facebook/Reddit/Twitter/Huddle/etc There were 2 different stats that both have been floating around. He was the only WR with 1200 from scrimmage both years and the only WR with 1175 receiving yards both years. IDK which came out first, but both only serve to prove that he is middle of the road for starting receivers. 1200 yards for a WR is good for about 10-15 in the league every year for the past 2 decades.

I don't think next year's 2nd sends the message that we are all in. Also, having 2 talented young QBs competing with each other for the starting job would be a godsend. WTF tried it years ago, and had Shanahan not completely fuged it up they would have been sitting pretty. If you go to Cousins instead of forcing RG3 to gut out some rough injuries, you have your franchise QB and a kings ransome. Either Griffin heals up and learns on the bench and is better in the long run, or you are the only ones who know how bad it is and you can keep Kirk and trade Bob.

Then why did Samuel and McCaffery improve every year as pass catchers with the same QBs as Moore? And Robby demonstrably improved with Teddy, Sammy and PJ Washington.

All of this can be true at the same time. I agree on the talent. The issue it's here has shown no ability/desire to reach his ceiling at this point in his career. He is largely the same player we drafted. As for middle of the road, if you consider the top 32 WRs "starters" he finished in the 2nd quartile and closer to 32 than to 1 in yardage both years.

Michael Thomas had the ghost of Drew Brees and Teddy Bridgewater over the same span. Amari Cooper had Andy Dalton and some dude who nobody knows. Diggs & Hopkins changed QBs too, although I'll grant their QBs were better.

So on top of being a middle of the road starting reciever, he adds 1.5 rushing yards per game too?

So if you make it 1175 AND exclude TE's, then it is technically true. So, what? What does that tell us? His 2 year average puts him 5th among WRs. But 1 of only 2 in the top 10 to play all 32 games. The other? Allen Robinson. That's his comparison. His per game average over the past 2 seasons puts him somewhere in the teens. Right around... Allen Robinson.

This... Also this...

Justin Jefferson would like to speak to you.

I won't go that far. I just think, between Cam/Allen/Teddy haters, there's been an effort to make our weapons seem better than they were. Which is weird, because the were pretty effing good already. I do wish we would've signed Samuel long term (for less than it will cost for DJ) and let Robbie and DJ fight for a contract this year a la Morgan/Witherspoon back in the day

No, and that's the point. DJ is a very good reciever, but let's stop making him out to be something he is not.

I don't know where this idea came from. But, I've seen it parroted here by different posters for months now. Unless I am crazy, this is patently false. 2019 Top 20 yardage leaders 2020 Top 20 yardage leaders 7 Players w/ 1100+ yds both years S Diggs - 1535 + 1130 = 2665 T Kelce - 1416 + 1229 = 2645 D Hopkins - 1407 + 1165 = 2572 A Robinson II - 1250 + 1147 = 2397 DJ Moore - 1175 + 1193 = 2368 D Waller - 1196 + 1145 = 2341 A Cooper - 1114 + 1189 = 2303 So, DJ Moore is a top 5 receiver over the past 2 years? Eh, not so much. Between injuries and Covid, many players didn't play a full 32 games the past 2 years. Edelmen opted out completely, though I'd imagine his stats would be pretty close to DJ's. J Jones - 1394 + 773 = 2167 (in 24 games M Thomas - 1725 + 438 = 2163 (in 23 games D Adams - 1374 + 997 = 2371 (in 26games And the guy picked side by side with DJ in the draft... C Ridley - 1374 + 866 = 2240 (in 28 games You could argue that availiblity is the most important ability. But, outside of Julio, none of these guys have injury prone histories. And I don't think any rational person would argue that DJ>JJ at this point. Yet, despite being hobbled by injuries, all 4 out performed Moore when they were on the field. Then you have young guys like Jefferson and Metcalf whose stats project out much better over time. They may not reach their ceilings, but they have already done more with their time in the league than DJ did. All of this is to say, 1. Stop saying dumb poo that is demonstrably untrue. 2. DJ Moore is not a top 5 receiver in the NFL. He is borderline top 10. 3. DJ is much closer to the Coopers/Allens/Locketts than he is to the Jones/Hopkins/Diggs of the world.

And, they re did the entire league schedule after the Dallas situation. Almost everybody had agame or two postponed. But, Dallas couldn't field a gameday roster. That's why we ended up with the 4 game series vs TB. It was easier early in the season. But, I don't see any other options at this point. Push back the semi finals 2 weeks and fill it in from there. You don't have to cram 3 weeks of games into one for the Canadian teams and everyone else ends up with the same rest they would have had in a normal season.

I love that nobody voted for defense and only 2 votes for size/grit. Yet, here we are at the deadline looking for a big physical defensemen.

They know they can't beat us in the playoffs as is. Only way is for them to change our lineup.

I feel like Aho and Necas should go ahead and start working on their playoff beards now.

With point percentage, there is no disputing it...

... and it was good!

Did my boy have another shutout? No seriously, did he? With these eyebrows it's hard to see anything sometimes.

They should honestly just re do the entire league schedule once the outbreak is contained. No matter what you do, the Canadiens are going to have less rest than everyone else. The fairest way would be to spread that out all the way to the semi finals.

Found an article breaking down his game after the trade to Denver last year. The tape is 2 years old, but it's still pretty relevant... Mile High Report: "In the days since news of the trade hit I’ve gone back and watched Bouye’s games against the Broncos, Saints, Buccaneers, Falcons, and Saints last year. I chose these matchups because all but one had him serving as CB1 and in all he faced top tier receivers"
