<p>It’s always great to catchup with former Detroit Lions wide receiver Herman Moore and talk about the evolution of the wide receiver position. He joins us on Schooled this week. Moore came into the league in 1991 as a first-round pick of the Lions. At 6-4, 210 pounds, Moore started a trend in which the NFL got bigger and taller at wide receiver. On Schooled, he discusses how receivers have gotten faster in recent years. He also talks about how the defenseless receiver rule has allowed smaller, faster receivers to work the middle of the field and make plays. When he played, even the big receivers had to shy away from the middle because safeties had the license to blow up those trying to catch the ball. We talk about how the Air Raid offense being run in Arizona has some similarities to the Run and Shoot he played in Detroit. We discuss current Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford and Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson. Offense is the name of the game on this week’s Schooled.</p>
