I would trade Cook right now for an average ham sandwich.
I would already be making offers. I'd be calling the Bears every day to try and get them to trade me Alshon.
I'd take anything for him. He's been consistent at one thing this year...failing to come down with contested balls. You're a freaking tight end. You should be able to make catches in traffic.

1 thing I'm mad about. It happens every game. We run the ball on first down. We get some yards. We run the ball again. Then again until the opposing defense stop Gurley and his running spree. Now they usually stop us around the third time we run it. So? Why not throw it or do a PA? We run and run and run till it doesn't work then throw a couple of times. It also doesn't work and we end up punting.
That is my 10 cents.

I had not problem with that 63 yard attempt. Odds of getting a first down were very slim if any. I doubt there was any way the line coulda gave Foles enough time to complete a pass. A 63 yard FG is a higher percentage than picking up a few yards with this offense. Even if the kicker doesn't have a leg like GZ's.
Take notice of the good offenses compared to the bad offenses. On 3rd down, the good offenses make tough catches. The bad offenses drop easy catches. The good offenses give their QB protection at least some of the time. Bad offenses pretty much have the QB running for his life on virtually every pass play. In case you haven't noticed, we're a bad offense.

TA gets open deep but foles always under throws him. Cook is a bum, no one would give us anything for a guy who every single year he has been with us shows up for the 1st game then becomes Jared cook... lol, dude can't catch, it's on film, we are stuck or we get a 6 or 7th rounder.
We do rum alot because we are a running team or try to be anyway. If not for gurley and a lil TA we couldn't run the ball and it's evident to me because of the zone blocking. Fisher has drafted 3 road graders and then changes the power blocking scheme we had to a finest type zone blocking which to succeed in it you need smaller quicker linemen. And to put the cherry on top drafts a rb that admittedly claims he hasn't run much zone blocking. He said it was in Georgias playbook but he never (or rarely I forget) has run behind it. But I must admit he is catching on. But I just don't get it. And the pass blocking is just terrible. It's one thing to flat out whiff on a block but it's another damming indication that you can't handle it when you repeatedly get beat by the man that's directly in front of you (grob)! And I'm not talking about just this game I mean since he has been here

I liked the call. He had a good chance to make it and it would have boosted his confidence. All kickers need a little confidence booster now and then. Had to have a FG at some point...
Damn right! It's not just an occasional drop. It seems like 3 a game.Need to start calling him 50-50 because those are the odds he'll catch it if it hits his hands. (Okay, a little harsh.) I'd like to see more Harkey as part of the running game. Love me some Harkey......
I like Cig's play calling. Could be better especially the constant run lefts but I think he is getting better each week.
Gurley is unbelievable. He was getting 5 yard a carry when there were NO holes. Then he finds one and off to the races. Wow.
Bailey and Tavon are the best receivers on the team, period.
Cook: I get fed up with him but he did have a key block and he has some of the best hands on the team.
Quick: WTF? Talk about regression. Now I know why he has not been playing.
I don't blame Foles at all. He did make a couple bad passes but between getting the crap beat out of him all day and the intentional spearing the dude is Mr. Tough. I like him.
The OL played horrible, horrible. If the Rams had Green Bays OL they would have won this game easily.
Greg the Leg. WTF? He has been drilling them down the middle and all of a sudden starts missing. The inconsistency may cost him.
The D missed couple plays really bad.
OK now the real vent. Greg Robinson. The guy looks totally lost out there. This is not the kind of play I expect from a second year, second pick. I don't care how raw he is. People just run around him and he is left standing there with his thumb..... What really irritated me was seeing Foles slowly picking himself up off the ground and Robinson just walking past him. I'll stop there.

Mr. Cook. Please see the NY Giant's TE, #84, Larry Donnell's catch at the end of the 49er game....... Just saying.

They don't use him enough, for whatever reason. Maybe they don't think he can be that type of player? I would try him in the slot and he could be what Danny was for Sam.

Bradford, he of the invisible sack? Bradford had worse pocket presence than Foles and he didn't run much either.

Yeah, the Cookie Monster hasn't been stealing those cookies lately, he's been dropping them and/or not fully running routes. Not pleasant to watch that amongst the other stuff today.
Serenity now.
