Now, I will add that I was really surprised by the no-call, on the play that Cooks got KO'd, along with the amount of time spent on confirming that TD that we've all been discussing.
I get the "let 'em play" but sometimes that equates to "let 'em cheat" like when no holding calls, no DPI on one team but two defensive holdings on the other.
The Cooks play is legal under the rules. He was established as a runner and the defender didn't lead with the crown of his helmet.
Shows how the league REALLY cares about player safety! LOL!
