Matt Moore fashion Update

In today's NFL, the Quarterback is more than just the general on the field, the leader in the locker room, the field commander, etc. etc. No, these days, a quarterback is the face of the franchise. He is the one who does the interviews, the cologne ads, the watch ads, etc. For example, under Vick's tenure at QB, he transformed the Falcons from this:

Into this:

quite an accomplishment. Tell me, is there anyone you'd rather follow into battle than this man?

Yeah, didn't think so.

This post is about Carolina future star QB Matt Moore, undrafted free agent rookie extraordinaire out of Oregon State. I'm not going to talk about how totally awesome he is because everyone knows that. Duh.

Instead, we're going to talk about his evolution as a dresser in his early NFL career.

This is Matt Moore after his big debut against Seattle. Complete 70 percent of your passes? Check. 200 yards passing? Check. No interceptions? Check. First career start and beat a division champ? Fucking check. Plussed? Of course not.

He dressed well for a rookie here. Kept it simple so he didn't make any mistakes. The hoodie is clutch. Reminds you of Belichick which is never a bad thing. Notice the key placement of the Lacoste hat. His awareness is good and from here you hope he can improve on the shirt choice.

Later in the week he got on the NFL Network.

This, of course, is during his NFL interview. the Lacoste hat is still good, and it's good to see him sticking to things that work. With rookies, you're always worried they're going to try new things when something is working well. This white shirt is a bad choice, however. He needs to learn that white doesn't show up well on camera, but that's a rookie mistake.

bonus points for keeping his composure in the face of a naked steve smith.

Here he is after the ref's shaft job against Dallas. I'm not going to post his stats because they were completely ass raped by questionable calls and the injury to Justin Hartwig which allowed him to be sacked five times. BUT HE LOOKED GREAT AFTERWARDS!

Here we're seeing real progress in the shirt department. This is after the Dallas game. As you can see, he's chosen a black long sleeved nike shirt. It's cost effective and decent looking which really shows he has good judgment.

As we all know, the most important thing for a rookie QB is a reliable check down hat, and that's obviously the role the lacoste hat has filled.

There was no clip of him after the Tampa Bay trouncing because they thought we'd rather see Vinny Testaverde cry after his abortion of a career came to an end.

All in all he's progressing pretty well for a rookie. Remember, this is the goal.
