What will it take to resign/extend Cooks

[OldSchool]

Rules need to be followed by all, otherwise a "soft" rule...is basically no rule at all. Wilson played after a similar hit. Cooks could have also returned.

[OldSchool]

Didn't see it like this psycho....I saw a guy hit hard....and stand up almost immediately. And then walk, under his own power, to the sideline.

Then once again you prove that you didn't watch it and don't know what you're talking about. It's even been posted already in this thread. Just stop now you've lost the discussion.

 

[hotanez]

So what will it take to resign/extend Cook?

 

[Memento]

So what will it take to resign/extend Cook?

Probably Watkins money...which I'd be happy to pay for Cooks' talent.

 

[OldSchool]

So what will it take to resign/extend Cook?

Like Memento says it'll likely take something similar to Watkins' deal. Not sure we should do that but it'll be interesting to see what next off season sends us.

 

[hotanez]

I think your right, the longer it takes the harder it will be

 

[majrleaged]

So...no merit in my position...
No true....we all witnessed Russell Wilson leave the tent....with just as vicious collision....in a game no where as large as the super bowl.

Every play...some player is impacting his helmet....every play...someone sees stars....yet many of you would like every single one of these guys to leave the field...

There is no safe level....it's all dangerous...as long as Cooks isn't getting targeted, I don't see a "greater" risk involved in trying to stay on the field.

No merit? If I heard what you have been saying from some guy on the street, I would say that guy doesn't even watch the game or he would no the rule that makes it impossible for anyone in concussion protocol to get back on the field unless the doctor allows it. Also I would think the guy has no clue, if he thought anybody, after getting completely knocked out would be able to fake not being knocked out, but see, I know you have been known to watch a few games and by reading some of your OTHER post, you are not an idiot. So yes, your argument has no merit and is nothing more than you agitating the board. This is not the game we grew up watching. A guy gets knocked out now, especially on the biggest stage in sports....well, find another argument, this one is lame.

This off topic is lame Champ. how about we stay on topic

[dieterbrock]

You seem to fail at the difference between levels of concussions. Yes, if he simply got a minor concussion and got right back up he may have been able to fake it as many have. But he obviously got knocked out. As in unconscious laying on the turf not moving. At that point, he wasn't going to be allowed back into the game. It wouldn't be allowed even if Cooks wanted to be back in the game. It wasn't up to him. End discussion.

Lol.
What’s also lost here is that this was during a Supebowl. As in the most viewed television event of the year.
There’s no way he gets back on the field with the whole world watching. It’s such a silly conversation.

 

[Rabid Ram]

So, my opinion is garbage.....and you wanted to add by saying.....what? Every thread I'm involved in , turns into garbage....wow....thanks for that rabid....glad to have your input on garbage today...do you feel better now?

Sorry bud I won't bite into troll bait and allow you to rustle me up like you love to do to others. What I say is true you openly bait people with radical/offensive points of views for ko other purpose then to incite them. Then what ever thread it is turns into a score of off topic pages to wade through just to get to a on topic post. What you do is unneeded and as it looks for the most part unwanted if the truth hurts well bud swallow and move on.

Rules need to be followed by all, otherwise a "soft" rule...is basically no rule at all. Wilson played after a similar hit. Cooks could have also returned.

Wilson's concussion - which may or may not have been as severe as Cooks - happened in week 10. By the end of the season the NFL had investigated, found what had gone wrong, fined Seattle significantly. Do you seriously think that the NFL did not communicate what needed to be done to prevent a repeat to their staff? That is exceedingly naive. Wilson's actions are not repeatable. If you have a hit that requires the concussion protocol exam - they are going to give it to you now. Cooks couldn't just fake it for a few seconds then return - even assuming he was mentally capable of that at that moment.

In terms of the bigger question - I'm hoping that the Rams extend Cooks for 5 seasons. Normally I prefer guaranteed roster bonuses for the player rather than a signing bonus, to allow the Rams to pick and choose when the cap hit comes, and to allow roster bonuses to be switched to signing bonuses if required. In this case, with the realistic chance of a strike, I hope that Cooks can be convinced to take slightly less with a signing bonus that will be his even if there is a strike or lockout. Maybe 5 years, $78 million, and a bit over $50 million guaranteed.

Then once again you prove that you didn't watch it and don't know what you're talking about. It's even been posted already in this thread. Just stop now you've lost the discussion.

Hey LAChamp, usually I like to “stick up for the underdog.” But I can’t in this case, because you’re advocating for something incredibly dangerous and foolish.

You claim that a player should be “man enough” to keep playing despite a severe concussion? Really?

The most macho, manly thing you could do is to just admit you are completely wrong here. Truly, that would be impressive.

Maybe you haven’t watched the replay of the Cooks’ hit recently. Please do so. He was lying motionless on the ground for 8 full seconds. He was completely OUT. Grade 3 severe concussion. It is utterly indefensible to claim he “should have tried to get back in the game as a decoy” or that “the Rams should pause before extending Cooks because he didn’t try to fool his coaches into thinking he was OK.”

(Just for reference, BTW, I re-watched the Wilson hit. Unlike Cooks, Wilson never lost consciousness. I agree with the fine Seattle received, I am just pointing out that the Cooks hit was noticeably more severe).

LAChamp, how about you prove how tough you are and admit it when you’re wrong.

If the owners are so stupid as to think that the NFL can withstand a lockout in the face of already massive income inequality that transcends race and class... then the hog is walking into the slaughterhouse.

No one wants to hear billionaire owners complain how unfair it is that they have to pay millionaires to play a game that makes them billions all while most are being subsidized with taxpayer funded stadiums.

I’d sign up to watch the new Drying Paint Watchers League rather than go through the NFL not getting their crap together and having a work stoppage...

Good god man,

“English...do you speak it”

Good god man,

“English...do you speak it”

Yes, I do. I speak it in complete sentences and generally with proper grammar.

I'm not sure where the confusion lies, but I'd be happy to elucidate if you require.

“Confusion”?

Nah, none here, chalk up yet another failed attempt at facetiousness? on my part I reckon

Carry on

I shoulda quoted.

That’s my bad. I was adding onto someone else’s point and I can see why it looks random.

I did read OC’s post in Sam Jackson’s voice if that helps...
