Between Cooper, Gallup and Beas, we must have the most soft spoken WRs in the league.

Wow, the dude is soft spoken.

He runs great routes, quite, ligament breaker.......Gruden trading Cooper does not make sense. Cooper may save the season. Cooper is a gift from God.

I love this guy.
..I was thinking the same thing. He might be a big reason we get into post season.

It's definitely looking like some crow-eating time for me. I'm becoming a huge fan.
I was excited from the get go. I’m actually surprised how much he contributed right off. I figured it would be this or Thanksgiving week before he would make an impact. Someone’s definitely coaching he and Dak up

I had nothing against the player. He might have been elite for all I cared. I hated the idea of giving up next year's first for him when I doubted the ability of the coaches to consistently game plan a winning strategy for Dak and I'm still doubting Dak's long-term viability. But seeing the immediate impact Cooper's having and his attitude are definitely winning me over. Not only can this dude ball, but he's got his head on straight. I want him to remain a Cowboy for a long time now.

Just two games in, it’s obvious that Coop’s talent and skills are gonna help the entire offense.

Still...gotta wonder how/why the powers-that-be (FO, Garrett/Linehan) thought the “WR by committee” approach was gonna work?

Better late than never.

I hope Gallup is taking notes on how Copper runs his routes.
If Copper ever says he was wide open, I'll believe him.
Hearing Gallup talk about the impact that Cooper has already had on him on how to run routes is very positive. Sanjay Lal should take notes.....

That's what I was thinking too. Our receivers were talking in preseason about how much Lal has taught them but Amari sounds like he's bringing some new things too. Chris Carter worked with Amari when he first came into the league and he was gushing about how Amari was still doing the little things they had worked on to disguise the route.

I think Carter actually first met Amari in high school. Carter said Amari is still doing things he taught him as a kid. No shade on Sanjay but sometimes when you see a player like Cooper execute routes it is easier for young players like Gallup to get a complete understanding on the psychology of executing the route. When it comes to route running Amari plays chess.....not checkers.
