I would argue that it was a better-than-perfect throw to Cooks in OT to win the game. The one he threw to Cooks on the fourth was a perfect throw but Cooks stopped running and did absolutely nothing to sell the PI. Allen did not want to give Cooks any reason to stop running to the ball again in OT so he took a yard off of it, making the throw better-than perfect. Any legitimate third receiver makes that catch.
I just want them to actually use and select their three fourth rounders now, rather than trade them all in for one pick in the third. We found 5+ regular rotation players last year because we had 10 picks. Should have been 6 except the strong injury came out of nowhere. You can’t expect to yield 5 good players with only 7 picks. You need 9 picks.
I agree Kiper’s resolute endorsement of Allen in 2018 as the no-brainer number 1 pick has completely restored his credibility. Kiper even maintained during and right after Allen’s ROOKIE season that Allen’s greatness was being demonstrated. Since then I’ve listened to everything Kiper has said.
Sherfield dropped 2 passes that could have won the game in the home playoff loss to the chiefs in ‘23. But he was so bad, no one expected him to catch the passes or thought of them as being drops. It just seemed like bad play calling to try and throw to him.
Yeah, but it won’t be because the grass won’t grow. It will be because they want to use the venue for other things, like concerts, high school playoffs, outside hockey…
