The Eels currently rank second in plays inside the opposition 20-metre zone this year, but are averaging a league-low 14.5 points per game to occupy last spot on the NRL ladder.
Their woes with the ball were evident in their most recent loss to the Warriors, when they failed to score despite numerous shots at the tryline despite having an extra man on the field.
"We get frantic in those situations and that's what happens when you've only won two games for the whole year," Moses said on Fox Sports' Big League Wrap on Monday.
"When you're in those situations, you get frantic and that's personally up to me calm things down. Hopefully we can work on that."
Moses said his experience as part of a disappointing Tigers outfit over the past couple of years has him better equipped to deal with another trying start to the season at the Eels.
With the Eels needing to win 11 of their remaining 13 matches if they are to match the 30 points that got the eighth-placed team into the finals last year, Moses urged his teammates to be more selfless.
"I think we've just got to get back to playing for each other," he said.
"Having those selfless acts where you push on the footy a bit more, support your mate and take some numbers off each other for each other, I think that's what we've got to get back to.
"Hopefully we can turn our season around."
The Eels' horror season was dealt a further blow following confirmation off-contract co-captain Beau Scott suffered a season-ending knee injury, while Kenny Edwards was released by the club.
