TA allowed the Cook fumble

[RamzFanz]

Well, he didn't allow it, but he was with Cook but let up. He STILL got into the end zone and got his hand on the fumbled ball.

Rookie mistake. If he had finished the play, Rams recover in the end zone - TD.

TA, don't stop until the whistle blows brother.

There is no blame in anyone lol. That was all heart and hustle by Tyran. No blame what so ever on Tavon.

 

[lockdnram21]

Yea no blame on tavon. Givens was actually closer to picking it up then anybody on the team

That play and and the ARZ defensive TD put us in a pretty bad spot in the second half. Coming back from that 21 point swing ( 14 point swing on the Cook TD) will really help with the psyche of our young team.

Cook allowed the Cook fumble.

"High and tight."

And the funny thing is, I've seen Fisher walking around during OTAs trying to slap the ball out of random players' hands when they've got it in their possession.

I don't blame him, but I'm sure the coaches told him to keep going till the whistle anyway.

The only one to blame is the guy who fumbled. Cook could of also taken a little more of an angle away from the defender. He seemed to run closer to the middle of the field where Mathieu was. And he made a hell of a play.

 

[DR RAM]

Tavon, and everyone else, in, or close to the play, should keep going, keep trying to help, all the way to the goal line, on every play.

 

[Thordaddy]

So we're saying TA "should have done" something resembling what Suh did?

 

[RamzFanz]

I should have worded it better. TA has no responsibility for the fumble but he gave up too soon or he could have made the fumble recovery.

Probably true. That's why coaches preach "to the whistle." I've seen a couple of instances where Quinn gave up after an outside rush where the play was a draw of off-tackle run (the play was behind him now), and if he had doubled back ... chances are really good that he would have plowed the RB from behind. On that really long Peterson run last year against us, that exact same thing happened. Bottom line is, you never quit until the whistle blows. And even then ... wait for it to blow twice. Leonard Little was really good that way. Really good.
