Twitter: Bobby Belt: "I Feel Like Amari Cooper is Gone"

[AKATheRake]

Go talk to Raiders fans who were screaming about how uninterested and less motivated Cooper gets when things aren't going the right way. This has actually been a consistent criticism of him and he's on his second team and probably third shortly.

So he wants the ball and he's uninterested? Which one is it? He's being a diva or is uninterested?

He's been here 3 1/2 seasons now, the organization gave up a 1st round pick and we have at least been to the playoffs twice in that span. We also gave him the deal and he took a lesser contract to stay here. He played through injuries all season. Now you want me to go talk to Raider fans? Lol! You can spend your time with them.

I'm sure this team knows what the results are in Daks game when Cooper is not on the field.

Because #1 WRs grow on trees

Dak doesn't know how to use a #1. We don't need it, but we do need better receivers who don't drop the ball. I think we can find a few of those for 10M/year. And a post 6/1 cut does save 20M this year, with 4M dead money next year. I;m not aghainst paying a wide receiver, but when I look at the other 15M receivers, it's a list of crazy receivers. And Giants with Kenny Golladay!

Honestly, after this season. They can keep Parsons and get rid of everyone else.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

The only thing Dak does for me is curb my excitement watching my favorite team for the last 45 years. I know he is not going to win anything here and it hurts because I want this team to win but they are shackled to a loser QB.

Why not root for another team until Dak is gone? That should work right?

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

This board is almost unbearable after a loss lol

It is lol...I love some of y'all man and enjoy reading y'all posts but the Debby downers....just unbearable....I get being frustrated but I don't know how people click "post reply" after some of the stuff they say lol. I use this site as a way to sort of feel better after watching the crap I just saw. Yet, after losses I feel WORSE when I come on here.....

Doesnt matter if the QB isn’t good enough to use them.

Cooper is a waste of money with a QB like Dak.

We need to spend all of our resources on the run game. Passing game resources are a waste of money because the QB isn’t good enough to use them.

What on earth did you expect after a playoff loss and our QB doing his typical disappearing act?

 

[Cebrin]

Dak missing Cooper and gallup is basically Quincy Carter level talent..

That's actually the most fair assessment I've heard. Quincy wasn't that bad. Just a head case. Never got to see the possibility.

I said he stops caring when things aren't going well - and yes, many WRs zone out when they don't get the ball. Dez used to coast unless he knew the ball was coming his way, Brown became uninterested in football when he wasn't the #1 guy, Moss literally pouted on the bench and refused to run routes in Oakland because of similar things. They go together.

Amari seems to lose focus easily and it's why he has had some of the worst drops recorded in the past like 15 years or so. Only Braylon Edwards has had worse seasons.

 

[lostar2009]

And feature only butter finger Lamb? I dont see it. Coop is the only reason we made it this far.

I expected some of y'all to act your age...but that was wishful thinking on my part. I admit that.

Cooper is not the problem. DAK is the problem, letting Cooper go will only make things worse. Cooper gets open a lot, but DAK won't make the throw unless he is open by 5 or more yards. (I think he knows he isn't accurate enough).

 

[nate dizzle]

No..we had to trade for him because all the receivers from the Romo era suddenly forgot how to play when Dak was gifted the job.

Spot on

 

[mcc2121]

There's ZERO chance Cooper is just getting cut. He absolutely has value. I mean, Brandin Cooks was traded for a #1 pick + TWICE. A would-be team's WR1 would easily fetch a 1st.

Plus the team landing him had the added bonus of not having his bonus count against their cap.

Yeah, the Cowboys would at least get a 1st for Amari.

 

[Miller]

Love me some Coop but we don’t use him so why not save money?

Right! Two chances at a game winning TD and let’s do a QB draw vs throwing it to him.

Yeah but they can get rid of Cooper and save cap money. They’re just stuck with Dak.


I think it’s a great idea to start getting rid of resources spent on the pass game. The QB can’t use them so don’t spend the money on it.

Because #1 WRs grow on trees

CD is a #1.

 

[JonesBoys]

Romo used to make no name receivers relevant. Dak makes name receivers irrelevant.

 

[CATCH17]

CD is a #1.

CD is soft, drops the ball, and in general does nothing.

But, he’s cheap so whatever.

The team would never have been in that desperate position had the Qb shown up in the first half or even the 3rd quarter.
