Cooks on Josh’s TD run

[Ya Digg?]

Not sure if this has been talked about, but I want to give huge props to Brandon Cooks on Josh’s TD. First, if Josh had any time, Cooks beat his guy clean and was open for a big play. Second, after Josh took off, Cooks continued his route so his guy would keep following him, then just stopped and blocked the dude the last 10 yards into the end zone. Great play by him

He may already be our second best run blocking receiver, right behind Shavers.

I saw some video of this.  He turned and saw Josh running.  He kept his hand up like he was open faking the DB into believing he had to continue covering him.  And then he walled him off after the gig was up.

I was also impressed how he kept the db in front of him, to avoid a phantom holding call.  Vet move there.

how about a 100 yard 2 TD game from the veteran against one of his former teams?

I was focusing on Shavers a lot the last game - dude blocks his a$$ off, never takes a play off

Shavers is playing some really good football so happy we stuck with him.

Cooks able to threaten down field is a great development imo.  That with the 9 stop are ways to move coverage back.   Also, liked the wrinkle of Cooks lined up in the backfield.  That created the explosive to Cook.

I’m torn because I absolutely love what I’ve seen out of Brandin Cooks and am thankful he’s on our team BUT I’m also disgusted with Brandon Beane that our best WR was the 4th best WR on the WORST team in the league and was let go. My mind is blows with how incompetent this FO is with receivers. But back to Cooks. I hope he and Josh develop a rapport Because dude can still play and is an exceptional route runner creating separation.

Also, gotta admit, I was definitely surprised Brady called a play where a guy actually went deep!

Did it scare anyone else that he just might get a holding call? I mean, that’s the kinda thing you almost expect.
