Re: Cooley needs to focus

Brunell is checking down too quickly, and with Cooley running deeper routes, Brunell is checking down to Betts and Sellers.

Re: Cooley needs to focus

Re: Cooley needs to focus

Cooley just hasn't had many plays go his way over the past couple weeks. It definately looks like he is a little bit frustrated as he plays. He dropped an easy one and throughout the during the weeks before the season we saw cooley drop some balls at camp and at the scrimmage. Cooley needs to do what cooley does.

Re: Cooley needs to focus

Where are the tight ends that were signed in the off season?

A little more pass protection make help!

Cooley hasn't had any opportunities. He's fine. Our offense is horrible. Lloyd, Moss, and Randel El haven't done much either b/c we are bad as a group now.

Good point Bohnzie. I realized that the WRs weren't getting many looks because of this but for some reason I guess I didn't apply it to Cooley. Makes sense though.
PS- Saw Mickey at Unionjacks on Saturday. Good times.

If you are going to put 4 wideouts in the formation why Cooley?

We have Lolyd, Randel-El, Moss and Patton.

Seem to make sense to check down to a wideout then a H-back and leave the Running back in to pass protect.

How about a two step drop to a quick hitter?

Timming routes?

Non of this has happened.

Re: Cooley needs to focus

You put Cooley in that situation because it helps create mismatches. Why do guys like Gates, Gonzales, Heap do the same thing? Plus, Cooley can block, moreso than a 4th receiver.

However, I never implied that being a 4 receiver set. If you watch the routes he's running, he's going 5, 10, 15 yards deep, as opposed to short hitches that the RB crew (Betts/Duckett/Sellars) are running out of the backfield.

Re: Cooley needs to focus

most of it comes down to brunell hop stepping in the pocket scared and the O'line is garbage. im not sure if its the schemes or our guys blow. did you guys see the play when Ware was following cooley in motion and then dropped in a three point stance and got str8 to brunell...? he went in his stance right in front of samuels and samuels just didnt care... let him go right by. My take is brunell shouldnt be running this offense and our O'line needs to be remodeled. we need a new LT, LG, and C.
Brunell on the other hand, did anyone see him rollout to his left and skipped a pass to Lloyd when he was wide open??? it was like a 8 yard route and he threw it 6 1/2 yards... horrible

Re: Cooley needs to focus

Cooley broke down and cut his hair, maybe he can start for my fantasy football team this week again. Now, I have to go buff my nails.

Can you get inside a person's head? Now that I'd like to see.

We skins fans can do anything. We also have these incredible all knowing cystal balls and 20/20 hindsight glasses.

I like your sig, but you'd at LEAST think there were TWO sacks between them...
