Twitter: Amari Cooper expected to play in N.O

[Doomsday77]

So who exactly is "expecting" Coop to travel to NO? Ed Werder or the source? I'm confused. Would love to hear this from the F.O.

Thank God. All of our offensive weapons and our o-line is healthy. No built in excuses this week.

Although I totally agree, I think this board might shut down if there weren't any excuses, lol.

So, I taketh he no longer has that "lingering cough". Great!!

Hey, has anyone tweeted that Amari Cooper might play on Thursday?

Haven't seen anything yet

 

[HungryLion]

Give him an inhaler and throw him out there.

 

[J-man]

That is huge. Even if he's limited, he can give you the plays you need, when you need them. With Lamb back also the offense should be much better at putting some points on the board.

 

[BermyStar]

Wow that’s huge news for us.
Yesterday I saw an insider saying it was a toss up.
With both Cooper and Lamb on the field I feel much better about the offense. If the O-line can play well we can win this.

I would feel much better overall if we had D-Law and Randy both coming back this week as well but I guess Randy won’t be in till the following game.

We can beat the Saints with our offense healthy, no problem. Having RG back next week, hence a near fully healthy team, we can compete with anyone. The end of season run should be fun.

Both Gregory and Gallimore are expected to return against WFT.. Pretty much all of the starters on both sides of the ball should be a go in that game.

Thanks for that. I was unsure about Gallimore so didn't want to post. That's as good a time as any to get rolling and build up steam heading into the playoffs.

This last few weeks sucks, but this league is very momentum based, in game and throughout a season. A lot of teams catch fire late in the season and make noise. Hope that's us this year.

Who do you think Werder's source is? Werder has been working in Dallas for 30+ years. His source is Jerry and Stephen.

No sh.. I don't think he will be anywhere near 100% though.. at least not in terms of aerobic conditioning. The disease which shall not be named attacks the respiratory system first and foremost. Coop will not be able to play 50 snaps in this game.. The Cowboys need to pick their spots and spell him often.. A fresh Cooper is a mismatch for any of the Saints corners.. So if we can get 20 fresh snaps out of him that might make all the difference. I would try to get as much as I can out of him in the first quarter.. because we don't know how the disease which shall not be named will affect his recovery time.

It's a lot more palatable to have him play limited snaps when we have both Lamb and Gallup in there.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Yaaaas! That's huge!

 

[links18]

Suck on some Sucrets for that cough and get in the game.

 

[Aulac]

Finally some good news for once! Would have been an L otherwise.

Yeah and keep the oxygen tanks close by .. He's gonna need it.

It depends. I had it and after a couple of days I would not have been limited. I was vaxxed, though, so severity maybe different.

Could you have run 30-40 sprints up and down a football field? BTW my son who was 36 had it and he said basically that it knocked him on his butt for a couple of days but being a world class athlete (he is a nationally ranked ju jitsu competitor) he powered through it and was fine.. But I think he was also vaccinated. It hits everybody differently.. but we have a lot of evidence that the vax significantly reduces the symptoms and after effects.. All the more reason to get the shot IMHO. But to each his own.
