He just isn’t super efficient. When you pass him the ball you get such an inconsistent return on that investment.

T.Cohen says, "I'm a power back"


Also, in case you missed the memo, Cohen is a power back now. “I gotta show the world that I’m a big back,” Cohen said, via the Bears’ official website. “A short-down, short-distance back. Goal-line type of back. … That’s really my type of game. I’m a bruising back. Y’all think of me as a shifty back. But in my heart, in my heart of hearts, I’m a power back.”

• Cohen might be onto something. According to Pro Football Focus’ data, Cohen averaged 5.67 yards per carry on power runs. Maybe the Bears will use math to fix what was a broken running game last year. Can’t hurt … could help!

Tape his check to the goal post. Incentive to cut back inside.

Whoa now, no reason to disrespect the great Matt Forte damn it.

he's not wrong. Forte wasn't a power runner, him and Olsen were legendary for going down easy for a time. if I recall he did get better over time though. Forte was dynamic, his pass-catching ability was epic. the 6 jamokes that followed him were unable to duplicate this, but if anyone could come close, I think Cohen could pull it off right?

I didn't say he was wrong, all i said was lets not bring Forte up in a negative way and i was just messin with him anyway. Forte's best ability was his pass catching.

Buckle your seat belt for a bad contract announcement.

Nagy overrates Cohen, BIGLY. Probably not helping this.

Good call on this one Mr. I'm Never Wrong. Sad thing is you've been wrong so many times I lost track a LONG time ago.

Ahhh, the ol' "People who disagree with me do not know football" routine.

Timeless classic.
The thing is you have proven over and over that you don't know shit about football.
