Moore appears to be calling out the coverage to Norman and literally pointing to Norman's zone, exactly where the pass was. Norman ignores him to try to jump the route on someone else's assignment.

 

I knew he blew the coverage, but I didn't realize that it was freaking pointed out to him right before the snap.

Yeah I was one who was ridiculing the people talking about he was the best cornerback in the NFC South post.    However I don't think anyone here thought he would play as bad as he did.  The second he got in the game he was targeted.....continuously.   The big lights shined on him and he wilted.  If possible he looked worst than he did last year.

And from Person's blog post today:

 

--On the game-winning pass to Johnson, DB D.J. Moore is clearly signaling to Norman before the snap to switch on the Bills' rub route, which Buffalo had run earlier on the drive.

Norman said he never heard Moore's call -- Johnson said he did -- and didn't switch, leaving Johnson wide open in the corner of the end zone for the 2-yard TD catch.

Odds that Norman is lying about not hearing the call?

 

If Stevie Johnson heard it, you can bet Norman did. How could he not? You can even see him looking at Moore in the video.

 

I think he either didn't understand, panicked, or thought he was gonna make a play and didn't need to stick to his assignment.

I'd be as bugged by him making an excuse rather than owning up as I would be by the blown coverage.

      No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.

      I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.

      I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
