Amari Cooper has been the difference for Dallas

[Bleu Star]

Whether we choose to like the giving of the #1 pick or not, I wholeheartedly agree with this article. Amari is now doing what Dez once did years ago before his injury. Amari is sucking up coverage and causing the secondary to pay attention. This, in turn, is opening up the rest of the field for other receivers and giving Zeke more robust lanes in which to run. His mere presence is making the offense click.

Lovingly,

Your boy Bleu

ATLANTA — Through three games with the Cowboys, No. 1 wideout Amari Cooper has 14 catches for 169 yards and one touchdown. Multiply his per-game averages by 16 and he’d have a season with 74 catches, 901 yards and five scores. Then consider he’s coming off his least-productive game of the season against the Falcons, catching just three passes for 36 yards.

Now realize that none of that matters. Sure, the Cowboys would love it if Cooper had the best three-game stretch of a mid-season trade acquisition in NFL history. But the stats don’t matter. For both the short and long term, Dallas getting Cooper was all about finally getting back to their 2016 ways of running the ball.

Cooper’s addition has forced defenses, for the first time this season, to show respect to the Cowboys’ passing game. Indeed, it has opened things up for quarterback Dak Prescott from Week 9 to 11, but it’s making defenses unload the box.

I love Cooper and that he brings but I think you have to recognize Colombo's work on the Oline.

That too. But don't underestimate what Amari's presence is doing for that offense.

While we began the season thinking we could get by without a true #1 WR, reality is that the organization was trippin. We are witinessing what a true #1 will do for an offense and we have only scratched the surface.

Agreed. Cooper takes edge off of the offense. But the oline has been way different now after the firing

Does anyone have any idea what this clown is up to?

 

[jazzcat22]

This will be huge going forward. Get another win, get more confidence going forward.
But must win this game.

But one could see the results right away what Cooper has done to effect this O in a positive way.

The passing game looks the same as it did before Cooper. The improved running game is the difference. Cooper putting up stats that if Dez was quite a few would be talking mess about. Cooper is the new kid everybody wants to like so they say nothing.

Cooper had that #1 talent with a great attitude man. There's nothing to dislike about the guy. He just goes out and destroys ACLs day in & day out.

That's where I disagree with you and others on here. I don't give a dang about these guys attitudes and all that off the field stuff. That's some make y'all feel better that the rich athlete is "humble" because it makes some of y'all feel better for some reason. I'm about the football bottom line since I don't know these guys personally and that's what has me paying attention to them.

 

[CATCH17]

I like Cooper.

I hate what we gave up for a decoy and how much cap space a decoy will take up.

Go tell Noah Brown to wear a TO mask or something. It will be a lot cheaper.

Fair. But what about him (or the signing) don't you like?

 

[Jipper]

If we win this week and then beat or nearly beat the saints then everyone will buy in....we have to keep playing well and Cooper can be a massive part...

 

[Philmonroe]

I already posted what I didn't like in my first post to you on this thread. The passing game looks the same. I have nothing against him or anyone else personally. I probably will never be that fan. My dislike or like is based on on field play only with a few outlier situations.

Ding. Ding Ding. To me, Columbo has been the greatest positive change this team has had mid-season in a long, long time.

Amari is making a nice difference. But there is no way he'll stay here with this little opportunity downfield.

Still can't believe, against Atlanta's horrible secondary, that Dallas didn't complete a pass more than 10 yards downfield.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

That too. But don't underestimate what Amari's presence is doing for that offense.

From a points per game perspective Cooper hasn't done anything.

Points are still important right?

With Dak who is consistently this qb you can't believe? Were you in a comma from 2016 and just woke up lol? This is our passing attack dang near every week even with Cooper so I don't get how you're surprised

Why is this a surprise? It's been the same way since 2016 lol

For me, Ws matter infinitely more than how many points you score because a good defense will often go Negan on a good offense.

Yeah, but one pass? One measly pass?
