No idea why they have a guy better at press coverage playing 5-yards off. Unless the expectation is for the defensive line to get pressure and give him more time? No idea. He should be pressing/disrupting routes instead of playing off.

Moss looks huge in comparison to Cook. It's only a matter of time until Smith hits Moss for a big gain.

Gotta echo the worry about Cook, he really sucks at this "play 5 yards off" stuff.

I don't understand why Chris Cook is playing Moss off like that. Thank God he's up and coming :roll:

Still I'm surprised that the game is this close. I'll sit back and wait for the other shoe to drop :)

I am not a Johnson fan but he was held which allowed the tackle, should have been a defensive holding penalty.
Come on Allen you again have not done a thing. :steamed:

We should line up Jared Allen across from him to give him a nice chuck right after the snap. :mrgreen:

It's Randy Moss. I guess the mentality is they'll give him 5-10 yards, but don't want to give up anything more then that. So far it has "worked

Ponder doing a good job keeping his eyes downfield on the two scrambles. Didn't see that last week.
