Re: Cooks shines during Thursday's OTA practice
 

The play in question wasn't actually a reverse, it was an end-around. Two different things. Either way I think Payton does a much better job of using that/setting it up than he did in his first few years.

I remember missing the playoffs in 08 needing 2 yards deep in our own territory to close out a game against the Bucs and Payton called an actual reverse to Henderson. Henderson was hella fast but not exactly elusive. Cooks probably could've gotten away from that tackle and made something out of it.

I remember that play like it was yesterday, because drew gave the ball to reggie and bush was supposed to pitch it henderson, Reggie subsequently fumbled the ball as his is nature and I shouted out all the censored language I could think of

He be congratulated on the proper use of the term tomfoolery. Totally underutilized word. Along with the likes of shenanigans, monkey business and hogwash.

"Givin him the business" is another football term that just doesn't get used enough today.

You better **** em up Cooks!

Re: Cooks shines during Thursday's OTA practice
 

I think that, certainly, when you think about the player and his ability... The thing that you think about is that you have a player who, certainly, I think can be a game changer. And I think that the consensus of thought around here is that we think we have a guy who will fit the process of what we do and how we think. I think he's got the potential, certainly, to be special.

Certainly I agree, that he certainly has the potential to certainly be special.
