    haha what? you say some of the most retarded shit

    I dont know if Eli Moore loves Joe Flacco or not. But I do know he didnt request a trade with Flacco at QB. He requested a trade with Wilson because Wilson can't find him out there.

    If Moore was the only guy to do this, maybe I'd bash him right along with you, but he's not, hes the 2nd guy this season. And honestly, maybe not the last. I watched Garrett Wilson last week wide open on a sideline route. The QB took way too long to throw it to him, then threw a shitty pass behind him (finally), and it goes in the books as a drop for Garrett Wilson!

    That has to be frustrating...

    I agree that would do it but I don't think that's gonna happen. It seems In Moore's mind the situation isn't fixable. He had 4 days to work his case behind the scenes. We don't know anything about what happened in those days, but the outcome was the reported trade me tweet. Not a good sign of contrition.

    That just blows his narrative. @BrowningNagle your response?

    I agree. At this point, I don't expect those things to happen. I was just saying that there is still a path back from this situation for all parties involved. That clock is ticking though.

    Just to post a couple of the tweets in that thread that resonated with me.

    Whole situation is bizarre…we’ve played only 6 games…not like it’s been a couple of years of this. We are winning, which should be the main concern. And he has no leverage…only second year, he’s on the field, and it’s not like he’s put up 100 yards games multiple times. He’s a very good receiver with potential. I agree that they aren’t using him right all the time…he should be getting more quick hits instead of going deep as much…for whatever reason, he doesn’t have the deep ball rapport with Zach like Davis does. He should be getting crossing routes, quick outs, slants, etc. but still WAY too early to get to the point of requesting a trade.

    Mims on the other hand I get…if you’re working your butt off and are never even activated I’d be pissed too. For him, he’s not even being given a chance to get on the field. I get earning it in practice and all that, but I think he has a much more legitimate case to complain.

    but Moore? No fucking way. This is just a BAD look for him.

    The bold in your statement is my point. It wouldn't take much management intervention to convince him that he was contributing and that his contribution was being appreciated blah blah.

    Everyone is conjecturing here so criticizing conjecture is kind of boorish.

    I conjectured earlier that the game script against Denver led Moore to believe his snaps would go down as they have the last 2 games (lots of 12 personnel packages) and it's a good manager who sees, based upon the players sensibilities, how Moore may react negatively and to intervene before it reaches this point.

    But sometimes its just a hard-case employee and you cant do shit--AB type guy who Elijah does not seem to be IMO.

    Mims requested a trade because he's not getting any playing time. How is that on Zach? Talk about a terrible take. I can't even give you an A for effort. That was awful.

    Damn these routes are brutal. QB has 3 seconds in the pocket and these routes take 10 seconds to develop. MLF is going to ruin Zach, G Wilson, and Moore

    His play calling especially in the first half of games has been brutal.

    I would love it if Mims comes in an has a banger - 125yds and 2tds!
    Mims is much bigger, stronger, and may even be faster.

    Mims has a much bigger frame than Moore and would make a much better blocker for the running game. If the Jets running game and defense continues to improve, Mims blocking is just as, if not more, valuable than a WR who bitches and moans when his team is on a winning streak. Selfish players are a dime a dozen, and thus, of little value to successful teams.

    you tell someone they say some “retarded” shit then follow it up with an opinion based on the logic of a middle schooler. Never change.

    The Miami clip is a great example. (I'm not sure if I quoted it right). Moore is open wayyyy before Wilson throws it. (and Davis too) He shouldn't have had to toe the sideline and make a tough catch.

    You roll out, he's open, throw the fuckin' thing man, don't take 2 more seconds to think about it. This isn't BYU vs. Alabama Southern Tech State. You have to be decisive

    And it goes in the books as a drop for Moore because he ran out of real estate and needed to make the tough catch toeing the sideline. He shouldn't have been in that spot. That's a simple 15 yard play with an NFL level QB

    You are the most clueless poster on this board. That was a great throw at the correct time. I can't help with your lack of a football IQ.
