He runs harder than Motor and is equally effective with screens and swing passes. He will be impactful and compliment our great passing attack. He is the X factor against the Chiefs, Titans, etc. Keeps defenses honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since his return, the running game and short passes to the backs has really complimented Josh's midrange and vertical passing game. Zach runs hard and he smells the goal line. After that fumble against Miami he's been a load. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a more bruising style that I think is a bit more effective when our backs hit that second level of a defense. Devin is a bit more of a finesse RB that can make folks miss if he is given space. It is up to Dabs on how to best align what they bring and use them effectively. He was also fairly elusive with some nice moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 (edited) Moss reminds me a lot of Marahawn. The style of movement and a little bit of the skill set. Edited September 28, 2021 by Brianmoorman4jesus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 I’ve been on that train for a while not the motor doesn’t have a place on the team but I would much rather see moss getting the carries 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time he touches the ball I feel like I'm waiting for him to fumble or drop the pass. I'd prefer Moss just for ball security reasons alone. I really don’t- the guy is a 2 or a 3 on other teams. Just an average back. Moss should be the 1, and really he is a 2 also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DallasMac Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 1 hour ago, Simon said: The problem with that is if you try to ride him, you're going to lose him. He's one of those guys that runs so galdanged hard that it's only a matter of time before he gets hurt. Protect him from himself by making him part of a tandem and you'll have a great back you can rely on all year; try to turn him into a lead back and you're going to be watching the Bills wasting downs with Matt Breida behind an OLine that can't make space for him. Yeah I can agree with this. Unfortunately Moss has an injury history going back to Utah and I think a big part of it is his play style. If he can stay healthy I think we will see him get the bulk of carries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They each have different strengths and weaknesses, but I like them as a tandem for now. You don’t have to draft a big name early, then pay them a fortune to extend. Ask the Cowboys. Good backs are available every year in rounds 3-5. Use them up, then get a new one. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeGOATski Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 This reminds me of Edmunds vs Milano. With some fans, it has to be either-or. They just can't accept that guys have different roles and different strengths. Motor and Moss is a play-the-hot hand situation. We can go back and forth week by week proclaiming one or the other as the starter. Motor looked better in preseason and entered the season as the starter with Moss a healthy scratch. It only took one week to change... Based on his presser, McDermott said Moss is more motivated now. Motor was already motivated based on the offseason stories about his training. You think McDermott wanted Moss to take inspiration from Motor? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
