My biggest concern is the way he floats the ball. Absolutely no zip on it. Its like he lofts it up in the air and wants it to float away ever so slowly and short of the receiver. He's had this issue since he began starting for us, yet no one mentions for some reason.

is anyone watching the Packers/Eagles game? Look at Aaron Rodgers play. The guy has his eyes constantly shifting across the field checking every read. That's what makes him so good.

I liked Moore last year but he seems like a different player this year. I noticed it in the preseason(I also saw Clausen doing the same thing) that every play he stared down the receiver. I knew who he was going to throw it to the second the ball was snapped.

Yea I noticed that.... I was very impressed, every play you can constantly see his eyes shifting through his progressions.

"...3 ints in the red zone..."

Please allow me to further clarify- 3 interceptions in the end zone.

"My biggest concern is the way he floats the ball. Absolutely no zip on it. Its like he lofts it up in the air and wants it to float away ever so slowly and short of the receiver. He's had this issue since he began starting for us, yet no one mentions for some reason."

If you would take further notice and look a little closer, you'd notice that Moore only "floats" the ball when he's throwing to anyone not named Steve Smith. His throws to Smith today were made with conviction, a solid throwing motion and had all the velocity you'd want on the ball. The first pass was perfect, the first smoke route just as good and the TD pass was as good a pass as Jake ever threw in all his years as a Panther.

But, as was the case throughout the preseason, Moore seems to be a half second late on his release and looks as though he's trying to make the perfect toss every time instead of letting his instincts take over. He made some horrible decisions today and he made some good passes- he just didn't make them on time. How many times was the ball already past when LaFell turned to find it? How many other times were receivers seemingly waiting on the pass instead of coming out of the break looking for it?

It's pretty obvious to me when you look at how he runs the offense when Smith is the intended target versus when the pass is going elsewhere...

Not hoping injury against anyone but i for one do hope that Clausen is our starter. Moore looked lost in the preseason and completely lost today. He is not going to get much better, we've seen this before. Clausen is the future.. lets get something going because i for one am not resigned to giving up on this season already!
