Lance Moore caught four passes for 121 yards in the Saints' Week 17 loss to the Panthers.
When Drew Brees averages over 300 yards per game, all his receivers are going to put up numbers -- even if they're not elite talents. Playing in 15 games, Moore recorded 65 catches for 1,041 yards and six touchdowns. But before we get carried away, note that this is Moore's first 1,000-yard season and he came into this season managing just 11.4 yards per catch. This year, he ripped off 16.0 yards per grab. Expect a regression in 2013. Sun, Dec 30, 2012 06:10:00 PM

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore caught four passes for 30 yards and a touchdown in Week 16 against the Cowboys.

Moore has found the end zone in back-to-back weeks and now has six scores on the season. He's shown to be a reliable WR3 in 2012 and needs 80 yards in Week 17 against the Panthers to post his first career 1,000-yard season.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore caught four passes for 42 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' Week 15 win over the Bucs.

Moore hauled in all but one of his targets on Sunday afternoon. His score was of the seven-yard variety at the tail end of the first half to put the Saints up by a score of 24-0 heading into the locker room. It was the easiest of easy touchdowns as Moore sat right in the end zone in front of Bucs S Ahmad Black. He'll remain a weekly WR3 as the season winds down. New Orleans travels to Dallas in Week 16.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore was held to one catch for 26 yards in New Orleans' Week 14 loss to the Giants.

Moore was targeted just four times in a game where Drew Brees threw the ball 43 times. The one-catch performance was his first of the season. Although Moore can be maddeningly inconsistent, he had posted at least 50 yards in five straight games coming into this afternoon. He'll be a moderate-risk, high-reward WR3 for Week 15.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore caught a game-high seven passes for 123 yards in Thursday night's Week 13 loss to the Falcons.

Moore tied for the team lead with 11 targets along with Marques Colston. Both receivers were the main threats in the aerial attack, and Jimmy Graham saw just six targets on Drew Brees' 50 pass attempts. Moore was consistently finding holes over the deep middle, but he did drop a crucial seven-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. He'll remain a WR3 against the Giants next week.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore caught three of six targets for 61 yards versus the 49ers in Week 12.

Moore was more of a presence than the boxscore would indicate, drawing a trio of defensive penalties, including defensive holding in the end zone. He did return to the game after being sent for concussion tests in the fourth quarter, but did not record another catch. On pace for a 65/1,017/6 line, Moore remains a WR3 option for Week 13 at Atlanta.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore was sent to the locker room for concussion testing in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game versus the 49ers.

Moore took Dashon Goldson's shoulder and Donte Whitner's helmet to his own helmet simultaneously, causing him to cough up the ball after his elbow hit the ground. Although momentarily stunned, he was able to get up and go into a near sprint to the locker room. Moore returned to the game on the next series.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore caught two passes for 53 yards and two touchdowns on Sunday against the Raiders in Week 11.

Moore was targeted just three times on the afternoon but made the most of them. His first score came in the final minute of the first half from 38 yards out to put the Saints comfortably ahead at 21-7. Moore's second visit to the end zone was a nice catch in double coverage of the 15-yard variety. He'll be a WR3 against the 49ers in Week 12.
Sun, Nov 18, 2012 08:09:00 PM
Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore hauled in seven passes for 91 yards versus the Falcons in Week 10.

His nine targets led the team. The highlight was a fantastic one-handed 29-yard grab in traffic to set up Marques Colston's touchdown. On pace for 71 receptions and his first 1,000-yard season despite missing one game, Moore remains a WR3 option at Oakland in Week 11.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore played on just 24-of-56 offensive snaps in Monday's win over the Eagles.

Moore's role has been scaled back thanks to the return of a healthy Jimmy Graham. He saw just two targets in Week 9 and six in Week 8. Even Devery Henderson played more snaps (38) and saw more passes (3) come his way. We can only consider Moore a WR3 against the Falcons this week.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore caught two passes for 61 yards in Monday night's Week 9 win over the Eagles.

Moore hauled in both of his targets, and both were huge third-down-and-long conversions. With Jimmy Graham back to full health and Colston as the clear-cut No. 1 receiver, Moore is back to being a WR3. He's on pace for a 66/988/4 line after the season's first eight games.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore played on 40-of-61 offensive snaps in Sunday night's loss to the Broncos.

Jimmy Graham's (40 snaps) return to the lineup wasn't a huge detriment to Moore's playing time, but it did hurt his targets. Moore saw six passes come his way in Week 8 after getting 10 in Week 7. With Graham back as the No. 1 option for Drew Brees on third downs, Moore is a mere WR3 option against the Eagles this week.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore caught three passes for 25 yards in New Orleans' Week 8 loss to the Broncos.

Coming off a dominant Week 7, Moore simply had trouble finding space against a Broncos' defense that pitched a near-perfect game against a previously unstoppable Drew Brees. Brees didn't crack the 200-yard mark until well into garbage time. Moore's week-to-week consistency is going to remain fairly erratic, but averaging a 5.2/72.1/0.33 line through six games, he's entrenched as a fantasy WR3.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore caught nine passes for 121 yards in the Saints' Week 7 victory over the Bucs.

Moore missed Week 5 with a hamstring injury, but the bye week was plenty enough for him to heal up. With Jimmy Graham (ankle) not playing for the Saints, Moore became Drew Brees' go-to guy over the middle of the field and on third downs. He caught nine of his 10 targets on Sunday. The Bucs were without top cover man Aqib Talib (suspension), and the Saints took advantage of it. Moore has been known to follow up big games with clunkers, though. The Saints head to Denver in Week 8.

Lance Moore - WR - Saints

Lance Moore (hamstring) is practicing in full this week.

Coming off the Saints' bye week, Moore is ready to roll after sitting out in Week 5. He can be immediately penciled in as a WR3 against the Bucs' No. 31 pass defense.
