The point I am making is that Skyy Moore still ain't doing shit. Feel free to celebrate the tiniest successes if you choose (switching the ball to the correct hand... really?) but Skyy's recent performance in the past few weeks hasn't changed anything. Let's be clear, I am not shitting on Skyy Moore, I have come to peace that he very likely isn't going to be the playmaker we had all hoped. I am shitting on anyone commenting that Skyy's recent performance is anything to celebrate.
Are either you or I in a position to manage or coach Skyy Moore? No we are two fans on a football forum discussing Skyy Moore's effectiveness and/or contribution to the offense over the past few weeks. Again, my problem is not with Skyy, he is what he is- an ineffective receiver. The issue I have is the posters who are moving the goal posts so far to try and make a 3 catch 34 yard performance noteworthy.

No one's moving the goalpost or celebrating Skyy. Yesterday was his best game of the year, and is noteworthy, far from preseason expectations, but better than it has been. It's fine to recognize that, while at the same time being skeptical it will get better. It's really not that hard to understand unless you are one of the one's who truly wished for him to fail so your takes won't look foolish. I don't think we will get much more out of Skyy, but if he can build on Sunday and show continued improvement, I will be ecstatic, because I am a Chiefs fan.
