Then you have Moore Kizer kinda looked like he was pissed at Moore there so maybe he ran it wrong, but he had 5x much space there on the DB than Kum did on both his catches combined. But here's a double catch Crappy throw but should be caught. TD play I'd add here that Kumerow was going up against Roby who's a 1-2 CB for the Texans. Moore in at least two of those plays was guarded by Bademosi, who is 5-6 on their depth chart. Not saying Moore cant get open, but so can Kumerow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying it like you did, "they both can do it" is trying to purport it like it's equal. It's not. The fact I have to even argue this and people can put on a game (there was nothing crazy in that PS game to decide it but we know who both of these guys are by now) is just frustrating. IDK how someone can see Jake Kumerow and their brain can think, yeah he gets open just like J'mon Moore does! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JQ1 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Kumerow has a lot of assets as a player, runs tight routes-with a shifty first step, rangy, great hands and timing. But what I REALLY like is that he’s a baller! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what my brain went to... IDK there's this idea when he's played he's threw up big numbers or something. He played 57 offensive snaps in the Jets game last year and still got only 3 targets. He caught 8 passes seeing time in 5 games and I guess started 2 of them. Baller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donzo Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Geez, the Moore haters are silly, and I don't mean to denigrate the haters. For the Moore hater's, denigrate means to put down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now I see 7 viable roster guys: Adams/Allison/MVS/ESB/Davis/Kumerow/Shepherd with Moore and Lazard well on the outside. (1) Is it too early to give up on Moore? (2) If it comes down to keeping 2 out of Davis/Kumerow/Shepherd, who do you keep and why? (3) Along w/ #2, what is more valuable to this team from the back-end roster guys at WR: Specials (Davis lean I imagine), deep threat, possession type, or slot type? My uninformed opinion would, with Adams/Allison/MVS and ESB as effective locks, try to keep Shepherd on the team. He seems like a good PS candidate, but he also appears as though he can contribute today from the slot. I would vote slot over deep threat, but would lean toward specials. Has Shepherd taken any special team snaps? I think there's a slightly above 0% chance that Shepherd make the roster. There's just too many players who are ahead of him. And I think you have to ask yourself, what are the odds that someone claims him? You're right about the roster locks, and the question is going to be are the Packers going to keep 5 or 6 WRs. If they keep 6, it bodes well for Kumerow and/or Moore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Peterson even look at him? He's a smart CB with his eyes in the backfield. He knew Rodgers couldn't make that throw and he was right. It had nothing to do with Kumerow. You Kumerow haters are really grasping at straws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Agree. Shepherd is an obvious practice squad guy. Other teams didn't even offer him a non-tryout UDFA contract. An easy guy to retain on practice squad, don't need to use a 53-spot for him. Assuming Davis's stinger is short-term, he has unique role in the room as ST and a unique receiver profile. Shepherd is potential Davis replacement, but PS is the place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had nothing to do with Kumerow. You Kumerow haters are really grasping at straws. I think it was a little of both. I think it's pretty clear Patrick Peterson isn't going to have much respect for Jake flipping Kumerow. There was plenty of space given to him when Rodgers could have gotten that ball out, and he still had a tiny shot of getting that ball there and PP didn't seem to care. I don't think he thought there was a shot in hell he WOULD throw to him, not that he totally recognized that he couldn't. I'll have to look at other snaps from that game and see if he ends up on Kumerow other times. I'm guessing there's some other disrespect paid to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebpackfan Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 (edited) I don't see how giving him space is a sign of disrespect. You would play further off a guy (assuming you weren't playing press) if you respected his speed and were worried that he could beat you deep (generally speaking, I doubt that is what happened here). The receiver's ability has nothing to do with the CBs ability to close that gap. Edited August 12, 2019 by mikebpackfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make a list of the starting WR in the last 6 or 7 Super Bowls. I think you'll be surprised Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
