Not sure why people are saying he’s under whelmed, he’s barely had a chance to get going or find a rhythm. End of day, there is only one football. Josh leads the NFL in passing yards, hard to also have a second string RB also make a big statistical impact too. I think Moss has looked good. We’ve played two games and are league leaders in passing. Moss averaged 4.6 ypc against the Dolphins and caught a TD against the Jets. ....but he’s underwhelmed? Not sure what people were expecting from him in two games. He doesn’t feel like a huge blow, especially given our pass happy tendencies and how good Yeldon is in the passing game, but the criticism is over the top right now of Moss.

Maybe there's a reason for that? #2 TE differ in their blocking vs pass catching abilities His blocking may very well improve, but most rookies seem to have a learning curve around the speed and power of the NFL game. Don't worry your little heart darlin'. https://www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bills/2020/04/udfa-tracker-who-did-buffalo-bills-sign-after-2020-nfl-draft.html Reggie Gilliam has confirmed that he will be joining the Bills roster as an UDFA. Gilliam is viewed as an outstanding blocker and special teams standout. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a pretty terrible unit on paper. Can’t say I know much about them though. Micah Kiser is a name you'll know after Sunday. 2018 mid round pick who has turned a page this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he has got moving he has showed he is tough to bring down but if he continues to take wasted steps early in his run which are not being used to get up to full speed he will struggle to maintain a good YPA. It is something Leonard Fournette has struggled with at times in the NFL too and he was a #4 overall pick so I don't mean to 'pick on' Moss. But he needs to adjust his game to be successful at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really have a judgement on him. I watched the ~10 minute highlight clips from both their games. I said he's a name people will know after this week in response to a poster who didn't know who their LBers are and that he won defensive player of the week last week. Hope he's a Preston Brown clone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither is fast, but Singletary has fast feet. Moss looks the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man out of Ghostbusters lifting his legs up and putting them down again. You know, I was beginning to wonder if I was the only person who thought this about Moss. I thought he had some of the quickness and shiftiness that Singletary has, with a little more power. But Singletary is just barely quick enough to make himself effective, and so far Moss has looked to me to be just short of being quick enough. He doesn't out-quick anyone and he doesn't outpower anyone. Maybe it's the blocking, maybe it's the scheme, maybe he hasn't adjusted yet, maybe it's a lot of things, but I don't think missing him for a week is a huge loss. Losing Knox hurts more - he HAS shown that his skills can make a difference on the field, but still, I'm not too concerned about it. Receivers get open because of scheme - Knox isn't one to get open by using special separation skills. He gets open because the the offense is attacking the called defense in a way that leaves an opening that the tight end runs to. Knox is good at it, but Gilliam can do it well enough. Will there be a drop off? Sure, but not one that should matter all that much. Plus, I think we'll see Davis on the field in some of the tight formations where we were seeing Knox in the slot or split out just a couple of yards. Obviously, Davis isn't the blocking threat Knox is in the running game, but Knox's blocking isn't striking fear in the hearts of linebackers around the league, either. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moss will be good once he starts hitting the openings the line is creating for him. I have seen him run into traffic or cut back because he didn't see the hole a few times. I agree regarding Knox. He is a definite match up problem for opposing Defenses, and will be a great one (in my opinion) once he develops some consistency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Rams weakness on D is their LBs. On offense they have Kupp and Higbee who can wreak havoc down the middle of the field.

That said, it’s a rookie rb who really hasn’t done that much and a talented TE who hanging on to the ball. Not ideal but it’s not like it’s Barkley or Kittle. The LBs will be huge because the Rams definitely watch Gielski eat us alive last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabattBlue Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I like how many have turned on Moss after just TWO games. He went from being part of the dynamic duo for the next 5-6 years to being terrible in less than a span of a month. Keep up the good work...I guess someone has to be the whipping boy.
