I couldn't agree with you more.
This is a key point, and it will absolutely make a difference if Coker can repeat the performance. If defenses have to play you straight up, they have no chance against your RBs.
This. We need to do it again to prove it wasn't a fluke. If I was a DC, I'd still plan to sell out to stop the run until I see Coker hit it again.
Let's reiterate this one more time - no one is saying he is not the same player Amari Cooper is right now. They do look about the same when you look at Coop's freshman season, though. That's the comparison.
Calvin Ridley stepped up and played one heck of a game. However, he has a long way to go to acquire the skill sets that Amari had at this juncture in relation to route running and reading Defenses.
Thats why it is soooo important for us to stick with the run up the middle with DH. It wasnt effective at the beginning but it started opening things up.
The comparisons are actual data from relative periods in their careers ... valid comparison. What else are we supposed to do here, compare insurance rates?
A'Shawn was shaving twice a day in kindergarten and had a full beard in middle school. He also drove the team bus on away games....as a sixth grader..
