DJ Moore blocking

To be honest, Cam didn't trust Moore to make that block as he was going into his slide 5 yards ahead of time not thinking DJ would put #30 on his back.

And Moore didn't even get a "thank you" series on the field for that block. Just like CJ Anderson never saw the field again after his TD.

When guys show up to play and do something well, give 'em a few more reps.

I noticed that too but he's been taught which he's been applying the last two years to avoid contact. Wether he makes that block or not he's done all he needs to on that play so no need to try to old Cam it and turn up the field running hard we've to many weapons these days get the first then get down untouched beautiful play.

Haha yeah, I noticed that too.  I bet he wishes he'd have held out just a taaad bit longer as it could've potentially been a way bigger play.  I bet they joked about it afterwards.  I definitely don't have a problem with Cam sliding early though after all the cheap shots he's taken.

I don't want Cam trusting anyone to make a block.  Slide and be safe.

I'd add that I think preseason caused some of us to set our expectations for Ian Thomas a little too high.

You can't expect a fourth-round rookie to come in and immediately be what it took Greg Olsen years to become.

I believe Thomas will get there, but give him time to do so.

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
