Full disclosure I haven't read anything recently but no COVID discussion should be polluting this thread.

Everything COVID related goes in the single COVID thread. I will be removing all posts today and issuing short term bans for those who did so including this post.

Also full disclosure this was the only post reported.

I'm guessing this goes for the "He's dumb not to get vaccinated" people too right?

Yes everyone who participated is taking a break. I will use the thread as the list. Hopefully this knocks this off.

If this is out there then how did we ever get to the point of "overworking him"

I think you have to find the limits. One thing about speed WRs is that it is not uncommon for them to miss a game or two every season with some sort of a strain so I don't know that the expectation should be 16 games played.

As it is the first preseason game of the season tomorrow, I am going to remove all bans this one time.

These are the users that were removed from banning but need to stop posting / fighting about COVID outside of the COVID thread. Questions about this will only be handled in PM. If you are on this list then I will consider continuing to post / fight about COVID in threads outside of where people actually want to read it, you are accepting your ban.

In defense of the "hype", all of the local media are saying Moore is basically looking better than any rookie receiver since Boldin in camp.

And we are talking about a 2nd round pick from a power five school who was an All American his freshman year vs. a guy from a school that faced lesser competition.

So it's not "laughable", but proceed with some caution.

Remember, though, Boldin wasn't hyped in Preseason or camp, because the coaching staff wanted to keep a lid on it. That allowed him to bust out against Detroit and shock the NFL week 1.

I'm far more worried about the hyped player than the no news player.

Naw man, camp reports were insane.

Then the preseason play came and he didn't show up. Then this board started to doubt him. And he busted out with the greatest debut in NFL history.

What does this even mean?

It’s a strange take I agree, I think it’s beneficial from the standpoint of allowing him to be a 2nd DL coach basically and giving the young guys some good feedback. Apart from that I certainly don’t think it will make him feel better about getting less snaps as video suggests lol

Almost feels like setting the stage for limited snaps. But don't ask why 33 million was paid though

If you are fast it's easy to pull your "Richard" string

It was during training camp and before the first preseason game. Don’t remember when (I started that one). It is feeling the same with Moore and his practice hype.
In no way am I ready to compare Moore and Boldin. That's why this insane hype surrounding Moore is just that--insane.
