It's Moore or Antonio Brown for me... I'm finding it a difficult decision....

Head says Moore

Gut says AB

Exactly the same for me. Going with Moore hoping they need to throw a lot to keep up with KC. Brown an unknown and now Godwin is back too.

Steve Steve wondering if he should start D.J. Moore

So I went back and watched Carolina's last 2 games against the LAC and Arizona. Moore and Anderson both are playing well really. Their usage is pretty strange to me though. Moore is very much known as

Super tough decision, I've gone back and forth several times this morning lol.

I'm rolling with Moore today, I think he has the higher floor, last week notwithstanding and certainly still fresh in my mind.

Anyone trusting Moore today?

KC is not the best from a match up perspective but opportunity as always is there.

I'm sitting Moore in favor of Brandin Cooks who has a better match up.

Great choice already with Crooks. :thumbup:

Bad call starting Moore. So agonizing seeing Robby significantly out targeting Moore week after week.

Always trust your gut kids.

Samuels seems to be ahead of Moore in the pecking order, too.

This is mind boggling.  Here's the total snap numbers:

  • Moore - 81 snaps
  • Anderson - 69 snaps
  • Samuel - 60 snaps

For those who have watched, has he been getting open?

I did not pay for All-22 this year so hard for me to say and I was trying to watch multiple games at once but I did see him open on a few underneath routes. I'm sure you've tracked a receiver/TE of interest and followed the QB's head to see if he looks his way before and to my untrained eye it does not look like Teddy looks his way a lot.

The twitter link below is a screenshot of what looks like a huge potential big play for Moore, he did not see this pass thrown to him.

How many got tired of Moore and benched him this week? :hey::wall:

I did in 1 league and not the other. Luckily, the league for $$$ is the one I kept him in. Feels like he could end up with a monster game.

D.J. Moore caught 4-of-7 targets for 96 yards and a touchdown in the Panthers' Week 10 loss to the Bucs.

After seeing just three targets in Week 9, Moore was responsible for two massive plays in Week 10. The first was a rainbow vertical shot by Teddy Bridgewater against the blitz, which Moore worked back to and caught with defenders closing. Then Moore took a tunnel screen 24 yards for a touchdown, aided by an amazing kick-out block by LT Trent Scott. Moore nearly had another 40-yard gain to his name, but it was later reviewed and rescinded just before halftime. Moore's volume seems to be more scattered than Robby Anderson and Curtis Samuel each week, but he has big-play potential that is difficult to leave outside of the top 30 WRs.

I sure did. Had Cooks in until waking up this AM to hear the high winds in CLE were still predicted to be strong through the game, so sat Cooks for Moore.

Lucked out.

What are you guys doing with Moore this week with Bridgewater likely out?

Sounds like a week to pivot to options if you have them.

Then again, maybe a different QB will look Moore's way a bit more.

The below is from yesterday's free FBG email - the alternatives at QB don't sound promising:

 

CAR - QB Teddy Bridgewater unlikely to start

Source: NFL Network - Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero

Updating a previous report, Carolina Panthers QB Teddy Bridgewater (knee), who has been limited in practice this week, is unlikely to start Sunday, Nov. 22, against the Detroit Lions, sources are telling NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

P.J. Walker and Will Grier have been splitting practice reps and nobody knows who is going to start for the Panthers on Sunday. Walker has some athleticism and may be the starter while Grier started a couple of games last year and looked really bad. Fantasy GMs can avoid these quarterbacks no matter who starts.

Benched him in 1 of 3 leagues. Would have been more if I had decent options in those leagues

I read this quickly and thought you mean you would have benched him in more leagues but you only have him in 3  :lol:   

Basically I read it like this:  Benched him in 3 leagues. Would have been more if I had <him>  :lol:

Considering J. Reagor @ CLE over Moore this week.  I need to do more research to see how many targets Reagor is getting since returning from injury before making a final decision.

Any update on his status today?

I know they're on bye next week, but non-contact, carted off the field injuries generally don't end well. 

 

He came down in a weird way and was instantly hobbling. If it was an ACL it would be one of the more odd ones I've ever seen. Looked like more of a hyperextension or something. Either way, I wouldn't count on much more for 2020.

NFW he plays week 13 :P

I doubt it too. Honestly, as a dynasty owner out of the title chase, I’d rather him rest for the season and not risk further injury. Then come back next year - with hopefully a different QB.

I think he meant DJM is on his bye week 13.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said D.J. Moore will be placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. 

Moore, who left Week 12's game against the Vikings with a non-contact ankle injury, was going to be iffy to play in Week 14 anyway. X-rays on his ankle were negative though. Carolina without Moore for this week's game against the Broncos would make Robby Anderson a high-floor WR2 option. Curtis Samuel would probably see a bump in snaps and opportunity if Moore is out against Denver.

I may have missed it, but do we know he tested positive or he was put on the list because he may have been exposed?

I think if his ankle is ok he should be good next week, will have had 12-13 days since testing positive.

D.J. Moore (COVID) is not expected to be available for Week 14 against the Broncos.

The good news is Moore is presumably over the ankle injury he suffered before the bye week. The bad news is the team isn't expecting him to be activated for Sunday, leaving only Robby Anderson, Curtis Samuel, Brandon Zylstra, and Pharoh Cooper available at wideout. Moore's vacated volume is expected to trickle down to Anderson, Samuel, and Mike Davis (in that order) in a soft spot against Denver's injury-riddled defense.

Carolina Panthers WR DJ Moore off COVID-19 list, will play Saturday

Well that's good news.

Except for the fact that the Packers secondary makes for a tough matchup.
