That’s Skyy

Skyy has better hands, a more natural catcher. He's a hair bigger. But he doesn't have Wilson's speed.

But they absolutely have a similar role.

I don't think Skyy is comparable to MVS. For one thing, and maybe the most important one, MVAS is physically a much different player than Skyy, at 5' 10" and 195lbs. MVS is 6' 4" and 210 lbs.

that's textbook apples and oranges.


MVS is a tall, big, long WR, like a Chase Claypool, while Skyy is a smaller, but quicker WR, maybe best suited for a slot role similar to Edelman/Welker/Renfrow, etc.

Skyy's most similar player on the Chiefs is probably Hardman.

Because you're overstating how "big" that game was (wasn't really big at all) and you have NO IDEA who Albert Wilson beat and when on his 12 1st down catches.

Oh I know YOU can't. We've already established that you're just going to continue to be completely unreasonable.

That was the biggest game of our regular season assuming we take care of business the rest of the way.

Even DJ is willing to give his props for that play agaisnt James, so you're just entering a different level of hater today.

Dj is just trying to play nice. There was nothing particularly special about that play.

And if we lose that game we still have a firm grip of the division. The only difference is maybe we clinch a week or two later.

There was nothing big about Sunday night's game in the grand scheme of things.

Skyy Moore 40: 4.41

Albert Wilson 40: 4.43

Lol wow.

You're going above and beyond to literally downplay everything.

What a ****ing joke.

And yea, DJ is just "playing nice", now you can speak for other people to downplay too.

Everyone is still arguing from an obvious place of confirmation bias.

Here’s a key point….EVERYTHING Skyy did Sunday is sustainable skill set production that was on display.

He got open immediately off the line against an elite defender showcasing his elite split.
He made hands catches (except for the catch going to the ground, that he brought in) showcasing his huge hands.
He showed the ability to make catches in traffic.

Most importantly, he earned Pats trust as Pat consistently looked for him in crucial situations later in the game.

I said it before this game and I’ll say it again. I think this was a game that provided Skyy the opportunity to earn Pats trust and once he does, Pat will go to him from this point forward with confidence.

If we are to compare him to anyone, going forward…it needs to be Welker or Edelman.

Those are his true comps at this level.

I think i'm being very reasonable. I'm just not fawning over that performance like he's the 2nd coming of Jerry Rice. It was a good game for him. Nothing special. Nothing that makes you go, "Oh damn, he's unguardable". The Rams won't be looking at that tape and going, 'Oh damn, Skyy Moore is gonna be a matchup problem for us".

Had there not been such an over reaction to his performance i likely wouldn't even be in this thread right now.

Like i said, he had a nice complimentary game and i hope he can continue to be reliable when given the chance.

1 post in the previous month. 11 in the last 2 days.

Be careful throwing stones here, ace.

Maybe you just need need to give more credit to Albert Wilson, as ive been saying?

Wilson was a good complimentary role player who was a dependable target when thrown at, and who made the most of his opportunities. He parlayed that into a 7 year career. He was a quicker, smaller guy who did good work underneath, had the speed to go over the top and Andy really liked him.

He wasn't a mismatch problem. He wasn't a guy that made chicken salad out of chicken shit. Nothing particularly exciting, but he made plays when his number was called.

I’ll say this, if his upper body injuries didn’t cause him to “alligator arm” most deep passes, he may have been able to be more than he ended up being.

That said, Skyy is a lot more talented than him. Especially right off the line and making the catch.

Dude...if the Chiefs lose....they'd still be 1st place in the division. I mean...there really wasn't much riding on that game.

And DJ's posts speak for themselves. Gonna have to read between the lines on that one.

DJ and I have been getting strawman'd to death in this thread the last few weeks, so no sympathy on that one.

I don’t that’s completely unreasonable from your POV.

Some of us are just shocked you and DJ can’t see something that most respected people that have watched football as more than a casual an can see.

That Skyy Moores skill set fits this offense perfectly and Sunday was our first real taste of him getting an opportunity to showcase those skills.

-King- 11-22-2022 06:18 PM

Using a 65 yard game as an I told you so game is so weird.

He had a good game. Don't blow it out of proportion or act like people were wrong when they said the previous 9 weeks were underwhelming.

People really don't understand grading a player game by game and that just because you say a player is underwhelming up to a certain point, that doesn't mean that you think he'll suck forever.

They've never said that his skill set doesn't fit this offense. Just that expectations for him were overblown and for 9 weeks he wasn't meeting even the minimum level of those expectations.
