Calling Nick Eatman out about Amari Cooper

[TheMarathonContinues]

He didn’t quit in Cleveland despite losing their starting RB and QB. I’d argue we would’ve won more games including playoffs last year had we kept him.
Pretty bad timing to be bashing Amari right now, coming off a near 300 yard performance with a backup to the backup QB.

I can't say what he did in Cleveland. I haven't had a eye on him like I did when he was in Dallas.
And i'm not bashing Amari. There was never any question about whether Amari was good. He was good in Oakland, good in Dallas and he's good in Cleveland. But can I win with him? Raiders said they couldn't. Cowboys fel they couldn't....I guess maybe Cleveland thinks they can?

You have ot ask yourself can you win with a guy who's shown he can quit on times. Now me? I would've never traded him. But if i'm a coach and decided I can't win with him then yeah i'd get rid of him. That's more than a viable excuse.

How is this well known? Not saying it isn’t I’ve never heard that and I’ve never heard Amari say it either…

None of them officially said it, but when he missed games from Covid word spread that Jones was furious about him not being vaxxed and getting it

 

[darthseinfeld]

And that Cooper refused to get vaccinated, which was his personal choice and not Jerry Jones’.

Thats what set in motion his departure. Had nothing to do with Lamb

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

Anybody hear this? Nick Eatman from Dallascowboys.com has said numerous times over the past few days that the Cowboys felt for Ceedee Lamb to "blossom" into the #1 WR on this team, Amari Cooper couldn't be on the team.

What kind of loser mentality is this? Ask Ceedee Lamb if he wishes Amari Cooper was on this team. Ask Lamb if he'd be getting double teamed with a safety over the top as much during games.

Then Eatman goes as far as to say that the Cowboys were RIGHT because Lamb is now a true #1 WR. You're giving the wrong response, Nick. It's not about if Lamb is a true #1 WR now, it's about the Cowboys not being as good as a TEAM (T-E-A-M) without Cooper on this Cowboys and the missed opportunity to have both of them on this roster last year and this year as well.

It's this soft mentality within the Cowboys organization as to why they're still looking for a championship since 1995.

Totally bro!

We need to hold this reporter accountable. The media's soft mentality is ruining the operations of the football team!

 

[Hadenough]

Yeah, I just don’t agree with this at all.

That's ok we're all entitled to our own opinion. I tend to not believe the Cowboys reporters because they can lose their job if the say negative stuff about the team or players. What Eatman says would also make it look like Jerry didn't make a mistake. Too much brown nosing going on.

Yeah I just think we were better with him than without him and now we have a different OC so who knows, he might’ve been awesome again without KM. We were def better with him than Gallup/Cooks and the price diff would’ve been negligible.

I like Cooks because of his speed. To me Lamb offers the same things Cooper did but better. I would've never traded Coop and don't understand why they did. Yeah he sucks in big games but he ain't the only one lol.

But if they decided he was bad for the culture? Then I can respect it. BUt I haven't heard anyone admit that either.

Does that mean every other player at the time and since has gotten the vaccine?

 

[Jayinem]

It was all about the vax. Once he refused, Jerry deemed him not a team player.

So every other player has gotten the vax right? Otherwise that makes no sense.

 

[TheSport78]

Why does it matter since? It’s now known nor was it proven back then that it actually does NOT prevent the transmission of COVID, so Jerry was a fool in the first place. I would bet my life savings that unless there was a medical exemption, every other player did get it.

Honestly because I'm 100% against the vaccine I think it's dangerous and it may explain a lot if the whole team is vaccinated.

[lk8701]

I mean there’s nothing wrong with that thinking.

I don’t think that was the sole reason though.

I think Coopers disappearing act in road games and big games took part in it.

I think being able to get from under his salary took part in it.

I think they thought it was smarter to pay Gallup 12 million a year vs Cooper at 20 million.


People can cry about Amari not being here but I saw us lose to San Fran with Coop, Gallup and Lamb here…saw us suck down the stretch. Get over Amari being gone because at the end of the day we underachieved with him here and that’s with a healthy Gallup.

He didn't play in the SF playoff game that year. He was injured.

You're right. I stand corrected.

It was a public game of tug of war between Jerry and Amari. It makes perfect sense.

Then it wasn't really about the vaccine then, unless he's the only player not to get the vax.

I’m a big fan of Cooks too, Amari, Lamb, and Cooks would’ve been killer.

YEah but they don't trade for Cooks if they have Amari though. Not while paying Gallup 12 million.

Paying Gallup was another big mistake

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Paying Gallup was another big mistake

Yeah I was for it at the time but foolish to to do it. It was a risk that didn’t pay off.
