It is week 2 of the preseason. While not nothing, it’s not really something either.Milkman said:
Define gadget player.
I know this is selective memory but it sure seemed like many of his big plays were called back for various reasons.
Preseason offenses - especially in all but Week 3 - are usually very vanilla.Milkman said:
Cohen should be miles behind Kamara and McCaffery. He does not generate enough weekly fantasy points to warrant a spot in a fantasy starting lineups.
One could interpret last year as a result of force feeding. They had nobody. He shouldn't play the slot as much in 2018 considering the additions at WR; and I don't see him forcing Howard off the field except in obvious passing downs. For a running back, he's not particularly good at running the ball except when he given a clear lane in space.
Cohen and the rest of the Bears starters didn't play today. But I agree completely, he's going to be used a lot more than people think this year.
Since McKinnon is out and Mack is hurt, I'll have to roll with Cohen as my RB2 in one of my leagues this week. Hope he goes off.
Starting him over Kerryon in the Flex with Jeffery sidelined. Or maybe I’m starting Hyde over Kerryon & Cohen is my RB2.
I'm very disappointed (and surprised). I really bought into the idea that Nagy had big plans for him. So far, that's not been the case. Disappointed in Nagy for that matter.
Same and also have been thinking with the way the Chiefs offense looks that I've seriously overrated Nagy's offensive mind.
Cohen doesn't seems to be that good to me. He runs around and gets nowhere. I think Chicago is better off using Gabriel more. Gabriel seems to know how to make the most of his touches.
I got him in dynasty and thrilled about it. I haven’t actually started him until this week. And I think he will be volatile. But the upside is worth it.
Tends to happen. Still had a 20 point game for me, but was definitely more lucky in that regard given usage.Hawkeye21 said:
That's ^^^^^^^^ what happened......bears offense struggled too because of the lack of Cohen usage......
The 70 yard TD was a screen pass when the jets blitzed so perfect call. Had 40 yards on the ground as well so solid game, I woulda expected more targets in the passing game as well but Howard was doing decent running the game so stuck with that instead
Thanks for the insight. I wouldn't call just 40 on the ground good given dearth of touches and that half of it came from one rip. His receiving day was poor by that standard as well - it turned out well but you can't be happy about the lack of targets.
I’ll gladly take 40 on the ground from Cohen every week off of what 5 carries or something. I don’t expect Cohen to get a bunch of carries and yes he didn’t get a lot of targets but that happens sometimes. scoring 4 weeks in a row and still proving that he should get the ball a lot is good for me, good chance he gets his 8 targets again next week
No change in role or situation going forward. Still a low-touch, boom/bust guy.
Honestly, don't care as long as Cohen gets his general touches/snap count and can score me over 35 points like he did this week.
Yeah still seems weird that mizzell is still getting touches especially with Cohen doing so good with his but Chicago/Nagy has gone back to using Cohen more again. He was practically unstoppable in the 4th while the bears where moving down the field. Seemed like every other play was a throw to Cohen because they know he’s a playmaker
