Moore is on the decline. He is still one of the most underrated RGs in the game. No one on the roster is capable enough to replace him. He will be here next year as continuity with the OLine is just as important as QB-WR relationship. Ducass has been stepping in for Slaw more than Moore so its Slaw's job to lose to Ducass. We will probably draft Moore's replacement or pick up a vet RG in the offseason, but I see a drafted player instead of picking someone off the scrap heap. Anyone with half a brain knows that we could be doing a LOT worse at RG than Moore. And while his play was off a bit this game, he has not been horrific this year. Wayne Hunter anyone? You guys are posting shit all based on emotions after a loss that should have been a W. I know - it fucking sucks, but Jesus Christ, can we have a little rationality in our posts?
Honestly, I think this is Moore's last year with the team. Ducasse will replace him, and we will also draft a guard this year.
You can't see this on tv. But many times Moore is not where he is supposed to be on running plays or he's not getting the crucial blocks.. That's a bigger problem imo. It leads into more passing as a result. Slauson is even worse. When 3 out of the 5 players on your line suck it drags down the other two. And they start to not try as hard. The saddest part of this whole mess is you see that Sanchez has no confidence in his offensive line. He's playing scared. Even when he has time to throw he acts like he doesn't. Of course that's more on Sanchez for not properly "feeling" the rush.
The hold was a phantom call. He reached to try to hold but didn't get a grip on the jersey. What's worse is that he didn't have to hold. Sanchez had a clear path for 10+ yards. The D-Lineman was too far away to tackle him.
