They signed him to a big contract, and really need him for several years to come. He's been getting creamed lately. he has an injury history, and he will not survive this. Start working in Mattison 10+ touches, and start throwing more. Its bad when casual observers (like my wife) spend most of the game saying "they're gonna kill that poor young man" (Cook) Dude is a beast. he takes more punishment than the rest of the roster combined, imo. Some is self-inflicted, yeah, but I respect that man. He gives all. And he's had plenty of opps this year to just lay down and take the rest of the game off. Or grab the hammy. (which people used to accuse him of) But he hasn't. He's been carrying our asses for long periods of time, especially in the toughness department. Cook will be past his prime soon IMO. Before an elite QB and adequate defense is assembled. It's like Adrian Peterson, so much fun to watch but borderline pointless if a Super Bowl is what you want. Cannot disagree All these good efforts in the running game, has it ever moved us closer to the ultimate goal? Nope. We need to focus more on "dynamic and innovative" and less on "tradition and balance" imo.
