Weeks after Caleb Williams’ controversial interception in the Bears’ Divisional Round loss intended for DJ Moore, Chicago’s veteran wideout has finally commented on the play.
If you were hoping for some large admission of fault or anything along those lines, don’t get excited. The good folks over at CHGO caught up with Moore at the Super Bowl this week. Adam Jahns of CHGO asked Moore for his side of the story on the last offensive play, and, much like what we heard from Caleb as well as Ben Johnson, miscommunication was to blame.
“My side of the story is just like everybody else’s,” Moore said. “It’s just miscommunication. We’ve gotta attack it the next time we got something like that and just go from there.”

Truthfully, I’m just so ready to move on from this story. I’m glad that DJ did speak on it finally. We’re not totally sure as to why he wasn’t available after the loss to the Rams, which is unusual for him. But having this linger over the offseason probably wouldn’t have been good for anyone. And if he is indeed back next season, it’s probably not something we’d have wanted unaddressed when players started returning to Halas Hall. If I had to guess, I do think DJ Moore is back in a Bears uniform next season, so getting this story nipped in the bud is a good thing.
If we’re being honest, I do believe DJ, Caleb, and Ben Johnson when they say that the play was a miscommunication. Moore’s position coach (Antwaan Randle El) came to his defense, too. For whatever reason, Williams and Moore seem to run hot and cold when it comes to being on the same page, and according to those who spoke on it, that play was a newer install. Miscommunications happen, mistakes happen, and nobody is perfect.
However, my issue is how DJ Moore reacted in real time. Now, as I’ve said in offensive line breakdowns, none of us actually know what the play design is and what the coaching points are, other than the guys running and calling the plays. Having said that, I don’t know of many concepts that have a receiver run a little more than half speed directly at a safety. If you’re out running a play and you’re confused, trying to half-ass something rarlely every wroks. If you’re going to be wrong, be wrong at 100 mph making a decision, because at least you have a chance at making a play and guessing right.
To be fair, that might be more of a general football/sports take than a specific one to receivers. And as I’ve said in the past, I really do like DJ Moore. He is a very good football player. When Moore is at his best, he makes the Bears a more dangerous offense than they would be without him. But if this team is going to reach its goal, which we can now clearly and fairly say is to win a Super Bowl, those head-scratching moments like the one we saw on that final offensive play against the Rams need to be eliminated.
