Yep. Maybe he still works with a true top WR alongside him, but in a rotation of decent-not-great he looks very average. Sometimes if a guy looks bad, there's no elaborate reason (the QB sucked, he's fighting injuries etc), he's just playing bad. Moore has better early separation, better YAC, probably better hands and looks at least as tough - give him those snaps.

JJSS is on track for about 830 yards its not world beating but it ain't nothing.
MVS is on track for 877 pretty much the same. Hardman is on track for....checks notes....checks again....489 |

Except he runs forward and doesn’t hold the ball out like it’s a loaf of bread.

I'm guessing we'll see Moore get more of those targets as the evidence on film begins to mount. |

But we need to get Hardman or Skyy picking up the pace, I don't care which one but at this point I HOPE its Skyy since he appears to have Moore upside. |

All depends on pay. JJSS is a nice receiver but not for $20 million or more

It doesn't take watching a ton of film to see Moore pop off the screen, while guys like JJSS and MVS really don't as much. I think Pat is going to notice and Moore's touches will continue to grow, probably sooner rather than later. |

8.5 yards/target while clearly playing through a bad heel that hampers his wheels for Hardman. Now if you want to argue that he presents a big, physical target that Pat can use situationally - I get that. And I'm not saying to cut the guy; he can have a role here. But in terms of efficiency, he's just not an efficient receiver. Hasn't been for years now. And that's how this offense should operate, IMO - focus on efficiency. And as we've seen more data on it, it's not that Hardman isn't getting targeted because he isn't open - he is. He's getting a lot of separation. He's just further down the reads. So change that. Or don't but have Moore running those underneath routes that JJSS is running. No, he's not going to catch the ball in traffic and absorb a blow - but he may not have to. His release and separation may allow him to catch that ball WITHOUT congestion and then move in space. |

Mahomes knows the Chiefs probably aren't going to make a blockbuster trade for a top end WR for the rest of his career, and the same probably goes for free agency. They're going to draft a ton of guys (hopefully some of them are 1st round guys) and they're simply not going to be what we need them to be unless Mahomes starts incorporating them. There's nothing like getting production in regular season games to increase a young WR's confidence and improvement. So yeah... I know Mahomes has more chemistry with other guys and seems to trust the players with more experience, but he also shouldn't waste this opportunity to get Skyy more and more involved so that we can actually use him frequently next year and beyond. |
