Maybe it's not all on Cooks...

I really think Brees, when healthy, is capable of making 95% of the throws he was making in 09-11. And Cooks hasn't been great regardless. But maybe we should give him a few weeks (letting Brees get healthier) before we start busting out the bust label. Add a 65 yard TD to Cooks's stats and things aren't looking so bad. And unless you're watching All-22 (I wish that NFLN would replay all games w/ All-22), who knows how many times this has happened.
Also, I'm as big of a Strief fan as there is on this forum. He has been a legit top 5 RT in the NFL since 2009. But of course he's getting his shite pushed in on this play. Time to make the move to Peat. The whole situation of leaving him on the bench feels like 2012, when we refused to play Junior full time even though he was clearly out best DE.

it seems like most of the passes are mid range plays.
occasionally a homerun play like Spiller's play last night or the attempt to Cooks vs. Carolina.
but nothing like we're used to.
Snead has been solid, I think he'll be a SOLID possession guy going forward. Coleman's snaps have gone down but is that b/c of Snead? I'd say yeah... I guess

That pass would get picked by the safety it looks like. If he were going towards the sideline, it might work, but that safety isn't far away with Cooks being that far away away from Brees.

Every one of the guys Brees isnt looking at are open. If Strief could have withheld a few seconds longer, the TE (I assume) down towards the bottom on the 40 is wide open.

Brees Played hurt all last season with a fricked up oblique. A muscle required in a throwing motion.
Now he has a fricked up rotator cuff.
And his stupid ego is so big he refuses to just rehab his shoulder for a week or two and then be 100% healthy. He'd rather trot out there at 60% and look like shite that sit out a game and get healthy. It's really stating to get old and it's horrible to watch.

I really think Brees is on a pitch count of sorts. He only has "x" amount of deep throws in him right now.

I hope that Strief at least yelled "Look Out!". That's the least that he could do for a man that took him to a Super Bowl.

Are you suggesting that Drew can't throw the ball 30yds downfield and that was the reason for this decision?

Strief needs help from a RB or a TE to block these DE's. Sean Payton sometimes uses these schemes to help out Strief and Brees. Think Strief needs help all the time. Also, Green Bay lines up in Shotgun with COBB in the backfield. We should do plays like that with Cooks.
I DO NOT SEE WHY NOT, IT WORKS FOR GREEN BAY.

You forgot to circle the safety to point out that ball would either get picked or batted down. Drew made the right read

Kinda hard to make this throw when you're about to be some dlineman's dinner.
Also, this pic doesn't tell me enough unless it's a gif or video clip. The safety could easily be coming underneath to int the ball. Throwing under pressure is different than not being under pressure...c'mon. Either Cooks is moving more towards the S with the S cutting underneath or he's running a deep route. You can't say for sure. Much easier to throw open when someone isn't breathing down your neck so you can see what the S is doing.
