I don’t really care about these bottom roster spots other than hoping we at some point have decent backups, but Moore over ISM for special teams? Did we watch the game tape? Moore turned in a return to the 14 yard line because he was going backwards when he caught the ball and ISM had a great catch and run to the 50. The stark difference in the return capabilities made me post in another thread that I hope we don’t keep Moore over ISM for returns. 

I hate this team never takes returning seriously. They may for like a year or 2, but then suddenly are like: Nah, fug it.

You forgot one thing, ISM never played for the Seahawks.........

Yeah so why keep Ian Thomas and David Moore who are proven jags over higher upside guys that need "development"

Hate to say it, but this staff has favorites. Moore over ISM doesn't make sense. The return game is very important. Field position can determine a game.

My guess Moore was kept for his receiving abilities and as for Ian I really don't know. I would say a lot of it had to do with who had a better grasp of the offense at this point,  maybe? I would not worry too much about it as those two are only here as placeholders until the have a better option. It appears they plan to feature the TE a lot so it would explain only carrying 5 wr.

Outside of the enigma that is Ian Thomas, David Moore being here as a vet who has come and gone before is the only other spot that seems a bit uninspiring. But realistically, our WR5 isn’t getting substantial production anyways.

This ISM Moore thing is based on ISM was dinged up probably, plus they cut the WRs short so whatever returner that is the better WR is kept. 

This is pretty fluid still I think. 

After week one, the expensive vets' contracts do not need to be guaranteed. 

 

edit: And as for KR, who the hell knows how that is going go? Less certainty may affect investment motivation.

    • MORGAN ON PLAY CALLER FOR CANALES   "I think that's really his [Canales'] call," he stated. "I think if he wants to promote somebody into being the play-caller or bring somebody from the outside. We haven't really talked about that. But that is something that I'm sure we'll talk about. We talk about every decision together. If he feels like he needs to add somebody or promote somebody into being the play-caller, then I trust him."  
    • Dude, he cannot see the field, when his feet are not set he throws ducks.   What the fug are you watching?
    • I'm looking at the final drive, and that's where I'm laying the blame at Bryce's feet. Stepping up to the line, 38 seconds left, 3 time outs on the clock. 30 yards needed to attempt a FG. It's not Bryce's job to call the plays, that's DC's and it was terrible play calling.  It's Bryce's job to read what the defense is giving him at the line. The middle of the field is open. Rams are guarding against the deep ball and bringing pressure leaving the middle of the field ripe for the taking. Knowing his line not holding up for long, Bryce should have read the defense, called the audible, and thrown to the middle of the field for 6- 8 yards, like you said, quick slants would have worked. Then run either hurry up or call a TO. We had time. He has to make the adjustments. Any QB has to make the adjustments.  The pass Horn dropped hit his hands but was at his knees. Should he have slid and caught it? Probably. Was the pass a good one? No it wasn't. Both players were at fault, not just Horn. Let's not pretend that Bryce threw a beautiful pass that hit the receiver chest high right in the hands in perfect stride because that damn sure wasn't the throw.  The defense didn't choke away a lead. They never had a real lead. Choking away a lead is being up by multiple scores late in the 4th and losing. We were up by 4 and handed the ball back to a potential MVP with an All pro WR and potential future HoF WR2. One score games in the 4th are a slug fest. 28-3. That's choking away a lead.  I don't solely blame Bryce for the game, but you seem to solely blame the defense for the game because they went to prevent after losing Horn. You are forgetting the short field that the offense left them that led to the early Puka TD on one of our 2 failed 4th down conversions. Our defense has been given very limited resources over the past 3 years while we have tried to put everything possible around Bryce. We added a little bit to the D this year after giving up a NFL record in points last year. Our defense overachieved based on what they've been given to work with.
