Default Ras-I Dowling current and future status
Moore took all his snaps on Sunday. What should we make of that? What should we expect from him long term?

Could it be that Dowling is still trying to get healthy

It might just be that they intended to double Fitzgerald the entire game and Moore's skillset was better suited for that...I don't read too much into stuff like this, unless he ends up a healthy scratch a bunch of weeks straight.

Fitzgerald is a taller WR. Isnt he exactly the kind of guy Dowling was drafted to cover?

I think the goal was to jam Fitz to the point where it didn't matter how tall the guy covering him was because he wasn't going to be targeted.

I thought he looked decent in week 1, maybe I missed a few things.

Going from starting nickel to 0 snaps seems like a bit much just for a difference in game plan. There's something else going on there.
