The reason we start so slow (1 Viewer)

The play book for me. It's so complex. Sanders this year. Cook last. They all come in and talk about how hard it is to learn it. It took Cook half a season to get going. I think this is why we start slow.

Imagine that and add in the fact there was really no offseason in which to learn it all.

Well, Cook was playing with TB when he was having to learn the playbook. Not sure if it was Cook struggling or TB not throwing to him.

Yeah.....playbook so tough that the D can't get off the field on 3rd downs to save their life....they're doing good on 1st & 2nd downs....but on 3rd downs they forget everything.....really tough!

All those pass interference penalties by defense clearly because they don’t know the offensive playbook lol

I’ve always thought Payton doesn’t play players enough in preseason but this year it sure seems they had way too many veteran days off.
