This dude spends more time on the sidelines during pivotal plays than I have every seen.

Is there a clause in his contract, that he only has to have one good catch per game? Sheeesh.


lol no he got hit hard in the head early and the foot thing will never go away , pretty sure when wasn't missed i mean Dak had near 500yards passing , we are deep , so maybe they are lettings him self sub..

Something is definitely odd with thim... maybe "that" is why the Raiders let him go.... this is very very strange.

I have a funny feeling... he will be gone in 1 or 2 more seaons

I just look at him and think well it's that time of the game for Cooper.

He doesn't seem interested in making possession catches either.
But....he was that key piece that we HAD to keep because THIS was the year.

Because he doesnt CARE if he wins or loses.

I said this all winter. It's not a mystery to anyone besides people who like fantasy numbers.
Interesting take but for people who feel this way how are you coming to this conclusion? I think he's getting a bad rep for possibly bad body language. I have never heard anyone in this organization question his lack of caring if he wins or loses. I think don't think he's this big time go get it type guy like Michael Irvin or even Dez was but we knew that.

This isn't about Cooper. It is about the coaching staff's strange player rotations and substitutions yesterday. Wilson and Brown got a ton of snaps.

Maybe this is just what we are going to do when we play with pace early in the season. Regardless, Copper, Lamb, and Gallup all were on the sidelines a bunch. On the D, DLaw was clearly on a snap count but none of the WR have injuries, so it will be interesting to see what McCarthy has to say about this. I suspect everyone's conditioning isn't 100% without preseason, so this might be necessary for a few more games.

Yea IMO after 3 games Dak, Amari and Aldon are the only players that showed up in every game. So many other players to criticize that actually have been no shows.....
Woooo!...people question why we are 1-2 but if you can only list 3 guys that have been consistently good for 3 games....that says it all especially when the coaches have sucked.

Yeah I have to admit I'm shocked he's getting criticism. He hasn't had his big time games but he's been consistently good for sure.

When you're the #1 receiver and you get the #1 corner and the double teams consistently AND the second, third and fourth receivers are Gallup, Lamb and now an emerging Wilson, it doesn't make any sense to force the ball to anybody. If teams start singling him up watch what happens. People reading his mind from thousands of miles away are really of no consequence.
