no concerts have changed their pricing dramatically the last 5-7 years. That’s not normal inflation within your existing budget, it’s an attempt to get a much larger slice of your pie a mid tier act in a theatre tour with dinner, parking and a babysitter is more than a noteworthy vacation these days. it’s a real bummer- I used to really enjoy going to see acts that I wasn’t super familiar with or big names in genres that weren’t my cup of tea typically- but the cost to get in the door makes it prohibitive. I have to be much more intentional about my entertainment dollars it’s a real bummer for being into art just for art’s sake and wanting to expand horizons

George Wilson for safety and wr is the obvious answer here

bingo. These are the same issues from the offseason projections and last week and… it’s Keon missing a block or an oddball missed route/catch doesn’t worry me but Keon being draped by a defender does in a very different way fatal flaws vs hiccups happen

or he’s just a human being with his daily job performance being hyper analyzed by millions and some days are just decently good and not all time great in the history of elite guys and cook for less than that. his top 4 weapons combined for one full player essentially

agreed. i don’t think he duplicates anyone here also, consider me on record as disagreeing with someone’s comparisons between Shakir and prime Kupp for what that’s worth

just wild that down Kincaid and Palmer we still had cook at his own floor for snap count. I think I saw it was his second lowest snap share of the year? you’d think given injuries this is the spot you involve him extra not less

I keep saying “remember when they used to pull him in the red zone?” it hurts bad to see your best players off the field on the most important plays. Especially when it’s clearly been a mistake in the past

they are going to let him run the jet sweep?

what a year it could have been

Thats his stats through 6 games. He’s abusing people yea, honestly worthy-Keon-mcconkey have played out very on point with their core profiles, right?

Oh just 525 yards and 6 touchdowns

yea just watched some Pickens highlights in Dallas and had some real feelings

And it will probably end up getting him hit extra

I’ll concede, higher than thought much more productive answer to the OP

yea but…. Did you see his sweet gear coming to the game? His folksy attitude on stage is endearing but now publicly disciplined twice, not playing well and being flashy has to be irking people in the building

some of the packages on season defining types of plays are super strange Not a specific example here but feel like we’ve seen big big moments with ray davis, Gilliam, Knox, shavers out there like at some point do you need your 5 best on the field for 4th down, 2 pointers, etc….. so it is your stance that his exact play count is perfect and can’t be questioned at all?

that’s terrible and unfortunately somewhat predictable. when debating the cook contract the fact that we refuse to use him in the biggest moments was a concern/negative. he has been electric but there’s no juice if he’s on the bench

though I’m still confused on some of the telegraphing run vs pass and where the passes to cook went this has been a weird year. No wr talent so let’s tell the defense pre snap that we are passing and let them get in an ideal pass shell

the rookie deal is the easiest. I have a hard time saying they couldn’t then, but will now. from there it’s hitting big on a couple draft classes. Having a DT, WR and CB play lights out on rookie deals is similar. Our last two drafts have too many misses so far.

You’ll feel silly if he is!

the offense at this point is Josh - James- dalton with some Shakir here and there the rest is just filler With dalton out, it’s a heavy cook game. And should be a cook pass catching game. he used to brady had really great designs to him previously why not now?

It’s not unfair commentary hopefully someone steps up

Brady used to get him space sure he dropped a few but it was so productive overall

honest question: 4th and 1 with 2 mins left down 3 in the Super Bowl: cooks on the bench? I think there’s a good chance it’s a yes and I don’t want that to be true

I said last year they overachieved with near every break going their way, until KC, outside very limited situations we needed to step forward, not just run it back. To play perfect wasn’t enough. To play just good is not close to enough when the ceiling is so low outside Josh. odds are we win 12 games but it’s not a dominant team
