Strange - I also watched every play. I was fairly impressed.
He looks like a fluid receiver and Bradford clearly likes him as a dump-off option.
He also has shiftiness and good vision hitting the hole. Runs with power.

don't know how anyone claiming to have watched him could be anything but impressed with the kid.
Vikes say he's a hard worker, handles every situation, lines up shotgun, I formation, split out. Hard not to be a little excited when you hear an NFL coach gushing about a rookie RB.

And hard not to get excited when you see a rookie RB straight up win the starting job in training camp.
And here's an NFL writer who loves what he sees from Cook.

its just weird that so many people who write about or coach the NFL are watching this kid and loving what they see, while you remain...unimpressed.
Also weird, I just spent 5 mins googling and couldn't find a single word indicating there would be a timeshare-share. Maybe you can post your link that substantiates your statement about RBs splitting carries in MIN?
Thanks in advance.
