Coop and CeeDee on the game winning play ( funny)

There's a Michael Irvin story similar to this where he ran down the field with Alvin Harper while yelling at him because Alvin just caught Mike's TD.

Technically not a TD, but a 70-yard slant into the Niners' red zone.

But as Aikman pointed out after the game, that long gain happened only because Harper was in one-on-one coverage. If Irvin and Harper had switched places, the 49ers would have probably rolled a different type of coverage Irvin's way. The result might instead be only a 15-yard gain for Irvin instead of the 70 that Harper got.
 
CeeDee was trying to redeem himself after the bad dropped pass. He said it was all he could think about.

Thanks for sharpening the details for my memory. I thought Harper scored.
 
LOL ......Dak said his WR's are greedy



I think the cameras caught this exchange. This is the huddle right before the TD. I think you can see Lamb mouth out "Let me catch this touchdown" and even nods towards that corner where Cooper caught that pass.
