I'd like to see more production in the TD department though. He will forever be compared to Calvin Ridley who has 26 TDs in his career as compared to DJ's 10 career TDs. Unfortunately yards don't win games, TDs do. I hope he can explode next year with better QB play. 

Tough to score TDs with a QB who doesn't throw the ball into the endzone.

He would've had 3-5 more this year if Teddy hit him in stride, and perhaps a couple more if the ball gets thrown some of the times DJ was streaking open downfield and didn't get the ball.

Matt Ryan compared to the QB’s throwing to DJ is one reason, the other is because Ridley has Jones taking up double coverage.

Ridley doesn't have a championship.  

Compare all you want to.

I don’t think his production is all of a sudden going to be even more with a better QB.

He’ll be covered more with a QB who makes him a deep threat and the QB might be rushed less.

No one was scared TB was going to hit DJ 50 yards down the field lol and they played like it. Did teams ever send help? I just remember a lot of 1v1 and that was without cmc.

I still think he’d be as good though, and more importantly the possibility of a 50 yard bomb with a better qb will open up the offense.

This is why we can let Curtis walk.

FWIW, Agent89 "only" managed 1200+ yards from scrimmage five times in his career.

Smitty has a hate boner for him too. Like sorry moore doesnt carry himself like you steve, he still puts in work. Smitty even talked about he got calls form people inside the team, bout issues with Moore. 

Im amazed with moore being able to finish with GREAT numbers(minus TDs) while having weeks of poor showings during the season. As others have said, hes had some of the weaker QBs group throwing him the rock. ANderson started like the true #1, but as the season aged Moore took that back.

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
