Start Cook at WR if Britt is out for the year/long time

You just can't really see what he is doing away from the ball on TV, which is why I want to hear from someone at the stadium on what is going on with him.

 

I feel you bro...my post was in no way directed at anyone person; just threw it out there for the masses.

 

Being a TE, he well suited to run seem routes and corner routes. These are patterns often run by a slot WR or 3rd WR. Here he can cause match up problems. He does not match up well playing against CB. A 1 or 2 WR with speed needs to be there. I think it is time for Hawkins to step up. But you are right; we need Cook on the field and put into the game plan more. Washington has really stepped it up this year but now that the focus moves away from Britt to him, we need help.

 

Screw that. Put CJ at WR and have him streak every play. He can catch a thirty yard bomb along the sideline looking into the sun with a defender in his face and manage to get his feet in, but he's bottled up at the line every play and he can't catch it five to ten yards out.

 

At this point..CJ is hurting our team just as much he is helping it.

Our second drive today stalled because CJ tries to pull in a catch one handed on first down.

 

I agree...I put alot (the majority, actually) of our running woes on the O-line, but CJ's two drops (and this one particularly, since it looked to me like he was hot dogging the catch) really ticked me off.

He is supposed to be one of the league's "top playmakers". Maybe its me, but I think that a "top playmaker" should be able to make two 5 yard catches in open space, and turn them into a big gain. The fact that he is not performing in this facet of the game is becoming increasingly disturbing to me. Hopefully he gets his head back into it next week....

 

I'm not ready to give up on Cook yet but you are right about Allen. That dude is going to be amazing.

 

Cook can line up in the slot but outside against a starting caliber CB just won't work.

The last damn thing we need to be doing is drafting another TE. As a group our guys are fine.

 

Who cares what the defense is expecting?
