Big Turk Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 He broke a lot of them today and now finds himself 2nd in the NFL in rushing to McCaffery and 3rd in the NFL in total scrimmage yards to McCaffery and Tyreek, so I think he has been doing quite well in that department... 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a RB you simply have to break some arm tackles. Watch Breece Hall for 2 carries and he’s everything Cook isn’t. Yes, when no one touches him, Cook is decent, but that’s the case with any RB. I need more Damien Harris or Murray. Cook seems like a nice change of pace, but not THE GUY to me. Hope im proven wrong Well has Cook changed your mind yet ? Murray is a definite compliment for short yardage & 26 has been running hard to each part is needed going forward but the RB room over all is better & the fact that Brady is actually using them in the scheme of the game & sticking with it is huge ... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 He got taken down multiple times yesterday with single arm tackles. He's becoming a really good player in space and a lethal weapon catching balls out of the backfield. But the fact remains that he frequently ends up on the ground on first contact, oftentimes with that contact being minimal. It doesn't mean that he's soft or that he sucks, it's just a part of his game where he could improve. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a running back to not be able to take a hit they should at have extraordinary speed. He's not terrible I just don't see him as a special player... Not my best take here. Amazing how Joe Brady has utilized him the right way. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean other then when he kept driving his legs and pushed 5 Cowboy defenders for 3 yards and then had the OLine come in and push them for another 5. Yeah sometimes he is going to get brought down by arm tackles. Sometimes he is going to break multiple tackles on long runs. It's not a "1 or the other" situation. 4 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to tell how good hall is when the jets offensive line is about as bad as humanly possible 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they get that corrected next year, Hall is likely a better player but not by much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dma0034 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Cook may just end up an All-Pro this year. Only CMC and Tyreek have more yards. Currently has about 1400 yards total. Probably needs to get 4 TDs in the next 3 games (only has 6 on the season). He is the biggest benefactor with Brady at OC 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s 190 lbs. every 190 RB will get taken down by some arm tackles. Same goes for every 200-210 RB. Nfl defenders are good enough to sometimes make plays regardless of the ball carriers efforts.

But he is so smooth that he's consistently able to glide around or through arm tackles before they have a chance. He's also gotten very good at falling forward for extra yards while getting tackled. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
