STEVEN said: He had a 37 or so yard run called back last night on a very flimsy holding call against Rudolph (esp the way the officials were reffing the game)... He is such a threat to bust big ones, even against great rush D's. Cousins was the weapons and the talent to keep teams honest enough too. That was 100% a hold Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Soafanforlife 430 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 On 8/27/2020 at 9:34 AM, PisEdiRin said: Cook is a "Coin Flip Player" with an astronomical Bust Factor. Not worthy of a 1st round pick. In 3 years in the NFL, Cook has had a nice little 8 game stretch to show for it, before he (predictably) tailed off completely and got hurt as usual. You're drafting him based off one 8 game stretch in 3 years. He now enters the 2020 season after the Vikings lost their best Offensive player in Stefon Diggs, a guy whom every team had to shift their entire defense for, to Cook's benefit. The Vikings primary Deep Threat in 2020 is Olabisi Johnson, a 7th round pick. Same script every game Cook plays in 2020: 8-9 guys in the box on every play. Zero gamebreakers on the perimeter whatsoever. A Kirk Cousins led Offense with 0 legit gamebreakers/deep threats = recipe for disaster. That entire offense is one to avoid. Checks log through 11 weeks of football:. Dalvin Cook: RB1 Overall. Adam "0 legit gamebreakers/deepthreats" Thielen: WR3 overall Justin "The Vikings primary Deep Threat in 2020 is Olabisi Johnson" Jefferson: WR 13 overall 😆😆😆 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ZappB 654 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 With Brees on the shelf for at least another two weeks, Cook is definitely the overall RB1 now. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

With how violent that hit was and how much pain he looked like he was in I was already coming to terms with him missing some weeks and making that internal "well...hopefully he's just out a couple weeks and heals up and comes back as strong as ever" deal. He's a tough SOB. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pooskay 806 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 As bad as Mattison was in the one week Cook was out, you still have to roster him in case Cook goes down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed. I’ve got MSanders and Dalvin cuffed. Haven’t done it much before this year, but feel like w those two I might need a little security. Plus their backups really are great.

tpat30 784 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I wouldn’t mind them giving Mattison a little more burn. Another 30+ touches for Cook. He took a decent beating too. I want this guy to stay healthy for the next month. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Personally Id rather we knew he was out. Youre never benching him, but this is becoming more and more of a trend and you dont want your RB1 going down with the toughest Playoff schedule as is.

I don't think he's coming back in the game if it was serious. He might log one or two limited practices this week but I expect he's going to be good to go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is the first I've heard of this Mattison guy. Can anybody else come in here and tell us about this Mattison guy and whether or not he's the guy to have as Cook's backup? Should I have drafted him? I thought Asiata was his backup. Are we sure it's not Asiata? /s Edited November 30, 2020 by yossarian 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
