EDIT : So I'm changing the OP (Not sure if anyone will notice) to this :


Anyone have any suggestions?

I have the Legion of Zoom.

Or should I also take into account Cooper Kupp here? (in which case, Zoom is not so Zoom'y)

Four-vert routes with JSN, Horton, White, and Shaheed? Hah!

Very good trio of talented WR's, picking up Shaheed means Kupp might be more injured than first believed.. I sure hope Shaheed can get a connection going with Darnold early...

I don't think this move has anything to do with Kupp's health. I think it has more to do with Shaheed has a skillset that is different from the rest and opens things up more for the run game and JSN. granted Horton has a similar skill set in terms of being a burner but he doesn't command the type of attention as a rookie Shaheed does. I don't think as a rookie you want to put all that on Horton's plate, and if he goes down then what?

To me it's definitely more with what Shaheed brings than anything to do with Kupp's health.

This trade was mooted a few weeks ago; seemed like an obvious good fit so I don’t think we should overread the tea leaves about Kupp’s injury status.

I hear you, but it's weird that we traded for only a WR at the deadline only one week after Kupp getting injured... The timeline is strangle and how his injuries just popped up.. I'm just saying...

I wish it were true.. but I think its most likely wishful thinking. The timing is a little suspicious

How is it suspicious? They clearly want this guy moving forward. A guy isn't a "rental" until he's actually gone.
Not everything is a conspiracy or shady or suspicious. Sometimes, a team just wants to add a good player to make the team better.

Well if you guys want to use something different, be my guest.

I'm going to refer to them as The Legion of Zoom.

Personally?


I’d rather they come up with something completely unrelated to previous squads.

This team has potential to be just as good, maybe better.

They deserve something completely unique to them.
Maybe we can have a poll or some kind of thread where fans here can provide nicknames for this group. :)

I'd be interested in what fun names some here at Dot NET come up with.

I only use LOZ because someone else mentioned it so it's not exactly my idea.

Yeah they dropped it a few times on espn fs1 and nfl nets. The offense is a freak show on turf

Nobody is stopping you.
Do you not have the ability to create a poll?

Too lazy. 🙃


But seriously, I don't think a Poll would work 'cause I would have to come up with names and ask people here to vote on them.

I think creating a thread is the best bet. *leaves to create a thread*
