Brady Having Difficulty Connecting in the Red Zone to His Top Targets

Good article, very interesting stats to review.

The article notes that Cooks only received his first red zone target this week (which is true), I just felt it worth noting that he had a (successful) two point target against the Texans. The point on low volume is still interesting.

My knee jerk reaction is to say 'well, his biggest asset (speed) is minimized with a smaller area to work with, but I think that would be a far over simplification. After all, speed guys can still create enough separation to be effective.

I have to think that the defense may be showing him more attention, because we all know Brady will go to whomever is open (and for some reason that most often seems to be Hogan). Either Hogan is really good at shaking defenses, or he is able to take advantage of the defense concentrating on the OTHER receivers.

Either way though, good stats.....thanks for putting this together.

I wonder if we should try and use Cooks kind of like how we use White with 5 yards on quick outs
