They are really pushing the Diggs shutdown Moore narrative

What game were these people watching? Moore had his way with him. Darnold overthrew would would have been a 50 yard catch and later under threw another one while getting hit, both time Diggs was in coverage. Even in that Diggs int Marshall was wide open.

DJ Moore did whatever he wanted to do.  

Sam’s first pick was just a dumb throw.  Despite the announcers saying it was to Anderson I felt it was actually to Marshall.  But that wasn’t so much a great defensive play but Darnold being bad.   One of those trademark Charles Godfrey type INTs.  You just happen to be where a bad ball was coming.  

2nd INT was a good play on the ball.   Credit there.  But again, that wasn’t to DJ.

Diggs had a great day and he's having a heck of a season. Can't take that away from him.

Once he left the field, we marched at will. That's something Dallas should be looking at this week. The rest of their coverage is pretty suspect.

26-39, 66% completions, 301 yds, 2 TD, 2 INT for Darnold. Remove the Diggs stats from above: 24-32, 75%, 267, 2 TD and that's while under massive pressure. One guy did their heavy lifting.

Take away the 2 garbage time TD Moore still owned him. Should of had over 150 yards in the first half if it wasn’t for errant throws

The media aren't pushing a DJ vs Diggs narrative at all.

They are saying Diggs played well.  This is true.

It's equally true that Moore played well.  8 catches, 113 yards and 2 TD's?  Not sure what else he could have been asked to do.

The two facts are not mutually exclusive.

Ponder this Panthers fans.  DJ Moore is currently on track to catch 120 balls for 1600 yards and 12 TD's.  At that point, there will be no hiding from the fact that DJ is a #1, and a top notch #1 at that.  Those stats are Stefon Diggs / Tyreek Hill / Justin Jefferson numbers.  Yes please.

There was a top 25 WR list on nfl.com this offseason that completely left DJ off the list. The NFL doesn't really care about the Panthers or their players.

I guessed you missed the tweets I posted. But yeah Diggs is extremely lucky Darnold didn’t hit those plays Moore had him beat all game long

    • Well that's part of where the disconnect is then, you think Chark was a "solid NFL player" I couldn't disagree more, he's someone who had one solid NFL season and then was at best a JAG the rest of his career, I wouldn't call that a "solid NFL player" If he was a #3 WR and put up the stats he did outside of that 1 season, then sure, he's a "solid NFL player" but he put up those numbers as the #1 WR in 3 of his 4 seasons that he had meaningful roles and the #2 in a high powered offense the 4th.   That's not good and not what I'd call a "solid NFL player"
    • Everything always makes sense in hindsight. Hell, I've seen guys who were touted by everyone as slam dunk "safest player in the draft" type prospects bust massively. Remember Aaron Curry? Robert Gallery? I'm just never going to say that a prospect is definitely a better NFL player than a solid NFL player. Better as a prospect? Sure, you can always make those arguments. But ultimately it comes down to what you do on Sundays and what you did on Saturdays just isn't relevant when you're talking about who's the better NFL player.
    • And that's totally fair to say, but I think it also shows you guys are conflating what I'm saying with thinking I'm saying something like, "T-Mac will 100% have a better NFL career than Chark had" which is a completely different statement and one I'd agree, you can't really say about any NFL player before they've ever taken a snap. Because what I'm saying, is that T-Mac's actual ability and skills right now, are at a higher level than Chark's ever were, it's a completely different statement that is independent of what his NFL output will be. Look at it this way, without even knowing what the rest of Chark's career turned out to be, would anyone seriously say they'd take Chark after the 2019 season over today's T-Mac if they somehow were in a draft and we were deciding between the two?  As even after that season, his potential was never what T-Mac's is right now. Even with those other prospects, I'm sure some of them before their NFL career started, still had more ability and physical talent than Chark had, because again, this is so much less about T-Mac and so much more about Chark.  A bad coach, system, QB, injuries, etc, that derail a WR's career no matter how good they may have been and is much more of the reason they were a bust than their own abilities.   Chark was a tall WR with little WR speed, he was a deep ball threat and wasn't even particularly great at it, he was not that good of an actual WR. If the Jags had another above average WR in 2019, then Chark doesn't get his 1k season that I think people are getting too hung up on in thinking he was some great player in this league.
