Cooks has earned my respect, that was grown man football he played. He's gonna have a ton of confidence going foward to attempt plays like that even more!

He really looked like every bit of an elite top 10 NFL WR in that game. He played bigger than 5'10 190 yesterday


Scary thing is that we might have 2 of those for the next 8 years

Yep. I'll take our top 4 WR's over any in the NFL. The great thing is that they are all young. The only thing we're missing is another legit deep threat to go along with Cooks(where is Joe Morgan when you need him).

Short & intermediate routes are almost impossible to cover with these 4 guys and Brees.

Coleman is catching what opportunities come his way. His development is still slow but lucky him he has no pressure now. Just catch what is thrown your way.

I hate that he isn't a vertical threat. He should be a jump ball machine but he just doesn't seem comfortable with that. His back shoulder catches have been money though

Coleman may not be a world beater. But the extreme joy I feel when I see him catch a football, get YAC, and not fumble is well worth it. Whenever there is a Coleman spotting you know we are clicking

It's crazy that Coleman has looked like a legit receiver lately.

Funnier that Michael Thomas looked like the old Coleman yesterday hahaba

Our receiving corps has become the strength of the team. One thing for sure, I bet we don't draft a WR in next years draft!!!

We spent the last 2 or 3 seasons building our receiving corp. through the draft which should afford us the opportunity to focus more on defense.

Why I dont think thats funny at all






I get your point though.
Hopefully this has humbled him a bit. Following him on social media I've noticed he's gotten a bit more "chirpy" shall we say in the past few weeks. I expect him to dominate from here out...kid is gonna be special.

Cooks put on his big boy britches and brought down that TD in triple coverage.

I was extremely proud of how he played. Great game from him and extremely clutch. That play should have won the game.

You mean that it wasn't fair to call him a bust after a productive first 2 seasons?

The best was Boom arguing that he wasn't a deep threat

Its been nice to see. I had written him off TBH.
Now perhaps we can add a lamp man catch and get five deep in the corp Ferris State coming up.

Cooks has been making catches in traffic all year. Really impressive for a guy his size

I love our WR corps. Hell, I miss Tommy Lee

Is Tommylee hurt? why was he not active and why do we keep having retards on ST in his place doing dumb shite on returns?

Cadet's fielding an out of bounds kickoff last week and Hightower's muff/frick it I am taking it to the 15 anyway plays are driving me nuts.

In Thomas defense the other day he had extremely tight coverage on him and on that last play he got his shite rocked. Broncos played real good D and if it was any other QB than the future HFmer and this year league MVP that game would have had a way worse outcome.

Hey Coco i love to see brandin make plays I have a personal/family connection to him going back to his OSU days. The posts I made were accurate when I made them, he has become a better player since then. I'm as big a cooks fan as any.

Coleman looks like colston when he runs, just doesn't seem as big and lumbering


I've been rooting for the guy, and it seems like the more he plays, the better he gets (shocker)
