I've worn his lucky jersey to 5-1. You won't hear me say anything negative about the dude. All I'm saying is Coop is a supremely legit WR1 and he will have his days were he outshines the other fellas. He's just that good. I think the combo is a perfect fit actually and I see your point in that I believe CD will get the ball more. I also think when the season is over Coop will have more deep shots go his way.

Its close, but Lamb is the better overall receiver and he will have the better numbers at the end of the year.

I love Lamb with the "bye" afterwards lol.
McCarthy needs to have a talk with this team about taunting right before crossing the goal line like on that play and Zeke high stepping on his way to the goal line. At some point this will backfire on them.
Do your taunting after you score.

I gotta say, I can do without guys slowing down into the end zone.
All I can see if Desean Jackson and all those crazy shenanigans, or worse yet, Leon Lett. Mike M should be leading every offensive meeting off with that play. If the ball goes out the endzone, it's the other team's ball. Just get in the endzone first and then do what you have to.

I mean I have no issue with it....until like you said it backfires lol. They know what it takes to score so it looks worse than what it is. Lamb knew he had another gear to go to if Mills would catch him.

I mean just look at DK last year....he burns Diggs...showboats and Diggs strips him right before going into the end zone lol.

This is what bothers me about McCarthy. Does he want to be conservative or does he want to go for the kill shot? Why did he go for the kill shot in OT but didn't in the 4th? His coaching is coaching decisions just are weird at times but you are right this is all about coaching and its why we rarely win these type of games in the past and we are doing it now.

If that's their reason....they are worried about the wrong stuff lol. I didn't think they had "retaliation" problems in the NFL. Seems like you can count on one hand where things get ugly aside from team scuffles.
I disagree. Seems like once a game they would get a guy with a flag but really they should
Have got the other guy.

also from a coaching perspective it’s much more fun to have focused players who are More interested in their tasks and not personal squabbles. A lot of players get distracted with 1 on 1 drama and lose sight of the goal

I was scared they were going to call taunting on the way he went into the endzone looking back at the CB. In that case the TD wouldn’t count. Not sure if the rule allows for that but I was worried while he was doing it.
I don't think they could call taunting on that, but its NE, so the refs always make up stuff

will you stop with the amari vs ceedee crap. jesus christ
not sure why some fans have to have this pecking order stuff.....although cooper didn't do much yesterday, their best defensive back and defensive player was taken out of the game and allowed to open up the rest of the field. if you watched the routes cooper ran, Moore was smart to keep him outside most of the time on the sideline routes and the defender along with him.......that was smart of Moore seeing how they had just tried to lock down Cooper...that's respect

Yeah I know and so let me get this straight that isn't taunting or was it the timing of it lol? Or is it because game was over after the tD?
The game was over and he was just saying goodbye, see you next time.

I suspect you're right. In either case the combo is lethal.

Yeah but does that stuff come from celebrations? I mean if a guy celebrates and then a guy choses to deck him.....that seems like a different issue at hand.

Since the game was over, what could they do? It absolutely could be considered taunting if it wasn't over. But the DB was kind of a dick with that shove knowing he got beat. I guess he was hoping Lamb would drop the ball, but by the time he got there he had to know it was over and shoved anyway.
"kind of".....assuredly. Could lead to injury.

I'm really enjoying the "fights" about our WR's and RB's...who's better. Certainly the PLAYERS want to be better than the other guy and that bodes well for us!
