Whattttttttttttttt. Gumbo stirring that pot again I like it

BS the line was hot garbage once people started going down. That’s a cold hard fact. Armstead will only play 8 games, Unger is gone. Those two are huge assets. Last year has nothing to do with this year.

Let’s see what Brees can do for u

I was lukewarm on signing Ted Ginn because he was constantly underachieving. he has been really solid for us since he got here and i hope it will be the same thing with Cook.

Great news! Definitely needed upgrade at TE position. Cook is athletic freak. Sean will have fun with this guy in our offense. We will see more seam trows from Brees (probably his best throw). Nice addition.

This is bad ass. Gonna help the team out a lot

If Ben Watson plays vs Rams we are in the super bowl. Cook is just as good if not better than Watson in his prime.

I can understand apprehension about signing Jared Cook, but it’s been a long time since we’ve had a TE that could really exploit LB’s and safeties in coverage with his athleticism.
