DJ Moore perspective

Recommended Posts

Moore didnt seem to start off to hot.  We can point fingers to why.

Smitty called him out as he called out the WR group the other week.   Moore has since responded.

But just saw a cool stat. And we forget how young Moore is.

Nobody has patience anymore. Playing WR was considered one of the harder positions to learn for rookies. Now we expect everyone to play like seasoned vets year one.

Lots of people called Shaq a bust. Now people are panicking we may not be able to resign him. DJ Moore is a stud

Only Shaq suckers think that. Fact is our run defense has fell off since Davis left.

I was contemplating starting a thread on this.  It's really hard to judge DJ and Curtis because of our troubles at QB and on OL.  With a healthy OL and QB for a full season, I think they'd be looking pretty damn good.  Curtis has not a single season where he was healthy and we had a healthy QB for the entire year.

DJ appears to be improving the most though, and I think he's got a chance to be our 1.

I don't think Samuel has regressed.  He just wasn't good to begin with.  He was a project player and a poor draft pick.

You could be right. Either way we are going to have to invest multiple drafts to fix our offense.

That’s a whole different story. And it’s not attributed to Davis as much as it is to losing Star IMO. If you remember, our run defense was TERRIBLE the season before we drafted Star and KK. Star doesn’t get enough credit for being an elite space eater because he didn’t get the sexy sack stats. But look at both our run defense since losing him and Luke’s career since losing him. Star did a LOT for this team and for freeing up Luke that goes under appreciated around here

It was regressing before he left.  Its been regressing since 2015.  And Shaq has nothing to do with our dline getting pushed around.  

It's pretty obvious that teams run right at him while focusing on Luke. Both Davis and Luke pretty much could wrap their man up and take him down. Not try to blow him up while allowing 7 extra yards to do so.

DJ has but Samuel has regressed. Our offense just doesn't have much talent at any position besides QB and RB. 

I don’t think Samuel has regressed, but just not improved in other areas of the position as we hoped. He’s an elite deep threat but we just can’t get him the ball down the field for whatever reason (Kyle’s arm strength, OL, etc.). If we had 2015 Cam right now, Samuel would be putting up 1500 yards.

You are not wrong with that. We paid the wrong DT.

Samuel can't even catch with his hands and Allen throws a more catchable ball than Newton. 2015 Newton would have been drilling balls to WRs. The simple fact that Samuel doesn't understand you have to fight for the ball and come back to your QB when he's running is a perfect example of how he never will be a good WR.

    • It’s like being on the Flyers broadcast team feed so far
    • Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.
    • I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room (behind him anyway). Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
