I'll take that 11% completion any day, as long as it works. Is it best to be lucky, good, or both? Ya gotta take both, every time! :grin:

Cooper Rush might not be the best QB around but let's be fair and give a guy due credit for doing something he's not expected to!

True. No one goes that would have been a great play but it was against so-and-so so it doesn't count. I'd have to go back and look, but I wonder how many of the best runs in NFL history we'd have to put an asterisk by since they came against losers?

When I saw that play in real time, I didn't think he caught the ball. Glad I was wrong!
It could’ve easily been intercepted I mean he threw the ball up for grabs and he does that a lot but once he got to lose, the people think that that somehow a great passage was not, it was just a great catch

First time he actually made a great catch and showed his potential.
I don’t remember what game it was but he made a cats like that along the sideline like for 40 something yards are they going to season? It was a big first down. You’re not seem consistent, but he makes those tough catches a lot. Kind of reminds me a little bit of Terrence Williams never really super consistent, but somehow managed to get those crazy sideline and catches that just have to know where you were surprised he got it.

Damn sorry. Yes I was mistaken.
Yeah I figured maybe you were talking about Tolbert but then I was shocked to see Tolbert had those stats you were posting lol. I just want some consistency among the receivers. The minute we get that the minute we will know what we need to add to this team. Just hasn't been there sadly but the potential shows. I just dont know if it's 4th receiver potential or 2nd or 3rd.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's Tolbert.
I mean we can talk about Tolbert if he could just catch the ball she supposed to catch you know who drops he has some times that this is an opportune times he has a chance to be a good third and fourth receiver on this team he’s just gotta stop with the drops and he drops ones that are just like softball and then he catches the hard ones.

People are down on him, but he still has a chance at least to be a Cedrick Wilson type guy on this team. If he can get it together a little bit just cut the drops down a little bit just gets the easy ones my God I can excuse lamb for his drops at times it makes me mad, but look at his production. It just goes with the territory they gave me target to get thrown.

I'd really like to see what kind of VooDoo Economics they use to determine the 11% part. Sounds like a number guestimated, or pulled from one's posterior.
