B.Cooks Questioned Drew's Arm Strength 4 Years Ago

Mike Thomas throwing Drew under the bus on twitter right now talking about his lack of arm strength.

I read if we trade Mike there is like a 20m plus hit so I don't see that as an option. Diva's don't have much longevity under Payton.

Re: B.Cooks Questioned Drew's Arm Strength 4 Years Ago

We all heard about there being an issue with the team and Thomas’s this year but I never thought much of it. I wonder if he’s been unhappy because Payton chose to ride it out with brees instead of making a switch to Jameis.

I honestly understand bogus side of that if it’s the case. Payton isn’t going to bench brees out of respect no matter what, and Thomas wants a Super Bowl.

That’s not at all how I interpreted it. MT just made an observation about coverage when the QB doesn’t throw deep much.

Yea WWL is making a big deal out of it but I think they are reading too much into it. Either way he’s not wrong. He will be fine.

Cooks was right. Thomas is right. Brees shrank in the playoffs for years because his Noodle Arm would get exposed. It’s old news. There’s a reason Payton was trying to get Mahomes. I’m tired of talking about him. I don’t want to hear anything about Brees and the Saints until they induct him into the HOF.

Thomas has done better with Hill at QB but I dunno. Thomas didnt produce this year for nothing.

Yeah, it was Brees arm that caused the Minn Miracle...and the Rams Comeback...

Has Cooks set hall of fame numbers since his departure from the Saints ?
