I don't have a problem with anything you said but I think we have drifted away from my original point. Which is this:

When you see Cooks wide open on a play are you more likely to think ...

a.) Goff missed a wide open Cooks.
-or-
b.) Cooks was wide open, but I have no idea if he was a decoy or perhaps the 3rd or 4th option on this particular play.

I'm a 'b'. I think you are, too. That's really all I was getting at.
