I said it after he had a "breakout" game in week 1 (against what will be a historically bad defense). I'll say it now. I'll say it again repeatedly. I'll say it until he's out of the league in three years. Dude is hot garbage. This is strange. NO has a bad secondary, bad pass coverage, but they did a decent job vs the run and cook still made it happen. Minnesota is playing a game without their starter and without their backup having enough time to prep for the game. Pitt has nothing to fear and can simply key on cook when he's in the game... and he's had only a few chances this game to make something happen.

He is an extremely bad athlete (<10% sparq) running behind an extremely bad Oline. If he was a hard worker and a good guy he might be worth keeping around to stick at the end of a roster but by all accounts he is neither of those. I just don't like the guy, his "potential", and I'm prone to hyperbole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not special but they made him look paralyzed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I like sparq, and other measures of athleticism. Possible he just tested poorly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have taken a guy like Kevin King who's healthy. Everyone knew he was an injury risk after college. I mean King has had two injuries already this season...

Good thing we dodged that bullet. Lol. If you make a big deal out of a good week and make sweeping judgements on our draft over it then I'm gonna do it too. Good thing we passed on injury prone Watt. He's already missed HALF his career with injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I like sparq, and other measures of athleticism. Possible he just tested poorly. I can and will be wrong. A LOT. To quote a wise man in the completely opposite way. "I just don't see it man." He did nothing impressive in week one other than getting two really good play calls. Outside runs on inside blitzes vs. a terrible D, where IMO literally every running back in the NFL should get the same results. 70 of his yards came on those. ~20 carries for ~50 yards the rest of the game. Again. I can and will be wrong A LOT but I see a 3ypc guy there. He's going to have A LOT of 10-15 carry 10-15 yard stretches. Had one last week. Having one this week. Long story short.... hot garbage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take away his successful plays, then he's only 3 YPC. Oh wait, that's every RB ever in the history of the NFL. @wgbeethree I'm just messing, but let's give him 8 games before making a NFL call for the negative.

You say that he's better than Duce Staley (Latavius Murray) but worse than Brian Westbrook (Jerick McKinnon). At least, that's how I'd do a Buckhalter comp.
