Saints second-year wideout Brandin Cooks believes he has advanced mentally and is no longer thinking on the field, just doing. As fast as he was last season, he believes he can play even faster now. He was having a great rookie campaign before landing on IR with a broken thumb. This year, he is anticipating being much better. "I'm definitely ahead of where I was last year mentally, knowing my plays and just having that true confidence when I'm running around," Cooks said. You know, honestly it is (possible). Because taking the thinking out of it, some of that thinking I was doing last year can really slow you down.
