Yup.  Tough to defend when executed properly.  You must like seeing Moore getting off to such a good start.  You were his first vocal supporter way back when..Lol.  

lol i mean I dont like to revel in my success ?

kidding, honestly not much of this is a surprise to me, now obviously i could not have predicted him to come in as good as he's been but when I saw those practice cut ups of him going 1 on 1 with different dbs it was easy to see how his skills easily translated to this level.  I always felt he could play inside and outside with the quality of his release moves and how he stemmed routes, only issue i was worried about on the outside was his size and strength but it hasnt proved to be an issue for him yet.  I was pumped when we drafted him (anyone who was on that draft hangout can attest lol) so im happy he's playing well early on.

He just seems so blah out there.   No energy and the mental mistakes are killers for him.  I’m sure he isn’t thrilled with his role right now, but he doesn’t seem to have any fight in him right now. 

Does the guy come across as dumb as a rock?

Just got home from another day in beautiful Florham Park.  
 

Looks like there was a concerted effort to get the ball downfield some more.  During walkthrough they were working in tight formations and a new bunch formation.   Cole, Moore and Davis seem to be the default “starting” 3 WRs right now, but you have a 4 man rotation of Davis, Cole, Moore and Crowder all getting a ton of reps with the “1’s”.  V. Smith has been getting next most looks with the starting unit.  He was in quite a bit with those other WRs.  

AVT was not participating at all today.   


The RBs were working on wheel routes and Carter was impressive again.   He’s going to tough for LBers to keep up with.  
 

They worked a bit on specials with Cole, Moore, Berrios and Carter at PR.   Interesting to see Mims working as a gunner on specials, first I have seen of this.  Not sure it’s a great sign for him however.  More on him later.  
 

DBs were working how to take on bunch formation, some good looks with them switching off men. 
 

Then another walkthrough session for the offense.  More of the same from earlier.   Mims had to be told twice to line up in the right spot, the second time LaFleur looked pissed.   This could be what is holding Mims back.  
 

1 on 1’s at the goal line were entertaining.   Moore is going to be a decent red zone option, he’s just so hard to run with in short spaces.  Davis made a nice grab, I have a video of it, but it was pretty close to me so it’s not great. Lol..  

 

11 on 11 next.  Offense looked the best I’ve seen thus far.  The line was run blocking well and Zach had some clean pockets.   Interesting to see that the line looked better without AVT in there.   Zach looked pretty good, hitting guys on time and he pushed the ball down field some.  Moore, Davis, Cole, Crowder all involved.   V. Smith getting some burn with the 1’s as well.  White receive the vast majority of the second team reps, he looks like the clear 2 right now, we’ll see what they do with Johnson.   T. Coleman is really decisive, obviously a great fit for this running game. 
 

Red zone next but it was 7 on 7, looked like they wanted to get the TEs involved down there.  
 

Overall a good day for the offense.  One miscommunication between him and Moore, it was probably on Moore since Zach thought he sit down in the zone and Moore kept running across, it probably would have resulted in Moore getting his head torn off if though as the safety was waiting for him.  
 

That’s all I can think of right now, if you have questions fire away.

Thank you for the update, they are always appreciated.  I too was at practice today and my couple of items

- I really dont like have Moore as a punt returner.  I dont want to risk injury and losing him on offense.  But no one is having success covering him and he catches everything

- TE Kroft made some nice catches and looks to be a solid signing so far and much better than the other TE's currently on roster

- Bless Austin with a very athletic INT in the end zone 

- The size of Morgan Moses in person and  up close is amazing

- i thought Wesco had a solid practice

- disappointed they were not in pads

KRl mentioned in the other thread that Ashytn Davis and Vinny Curry are both hurt/out and wont be back for a few weeks?  I hadnt seen that mentioned anywhere - does anyone know what the story is with those guys?

Davis is on PUP list due to offseason foot surgery.  He has been working out on the side at practice, but apparently has not been cleared for full practice. 

Curry is on Non-Football injury list.  Have not seen that his injury has been disclosed.

The other day, after practice, Saleh said week 2 is target for both guys return.  He also confirmed QW should be back for start of regular season.
