Coop appreciation

[Pessimist_cowboy]

Who knows how to make GIFS? A couple of him on the ground with the roller ball and massage gun would be golden !!!!!!

Who did the Raiders draft with that pick…

if I recall, they gambled and thought they’d get a top 10 pick…but after Cooper arrived it all changed.

So glad he’s a Cowboy…

Johnathan Abram, strong safety.

He's EXACTLY what you want a superstar to be, it's unfortunate that our society doesn't champion guys like him.

 

[Brax]

Amari is a MAN...he's not flashy or boisterous....he's just a tough dude and I don't want to lose him......

Never got the hate some have for him, all he has done is make those around him better.

I wouldn't call it a 'chasm'. Cooper had 122 yards on 8 catches and Lamb had 112 on 6 catches. Not exactly eclipsing his performance.

If we’re talking about a stats vacuum. Now go back and look at the plays they made and didn’t and when they happened. Lamb had a drop that almost cost the team the game. Coop made an incredible circus catch to save it. Lamb isnt remotely on Cooper’s level. Period.

Not yet. Let's hope he gets there.

 

[DoctorChicken]

He's so good.

He is more than worth that 1st round pick. I don't believe we draft a guy with that pick that gives us what Cooper gives us.

Johnathan Abraham was taken with the pick we sent to the Raiders, who hasn’t done anything in the NFL.

The best player taken even remotely close to that pick would have been AJ Brown at 51.

Wait ... I thought he didn't care about the game. Or is that that he disappears in big games. Or just on the road. I forget which ridiculous criticism is the latest favor.

That catch was good concentration, but it doesn't compare to the TD catch Lamb made last year, laying out and spinning backwards. Just because CeeDee didn't have a spectacular catch against the Vikings doesn't mean he can't when necessary.
I'm not saying he's as good as Coop yet, but the difference between them isn't as big as you're making it out to be.

It will be interesting to see how our WR situation plays out in offseason.

Cooper Wilson Lamb Brown with a host of others fighting for 5th slot and PS. That’s how it plays out. Gallup will bring Dallas a decent comp pick from free agency, can’t keep everyone.

He was outstanding against the Vikes
A man against boys.

Given the Cowboys history with 1st round picks traded for WR's I was leery that this wasn't going to work out but he has proved me wrong. Terrific pickup.

All MAN of him waiting until the 4th quarter to show up. (HINT: Amari was single-covered all game long)

Imagine if he showed up for all 4 quarters AND every single game? Many of us would stop saying he is overpaid, needs to take a paycut or get cut for salary cap purposes.

I just don't understand the thinking of some on this forum that says we should part ways with Cooper that you gave up high draft capital for who's 26 years old and a number one receiver that I classify as "SUDDEN" in his route running, a very rare ability to change direction on a dime because we have CeeDee Lamb now.....Teams worry and roll coverage to Cooper more that allows Lamb more single coverage....The last drive alone, shows Coopers value, three catches and the winning TD with less than a minute to go on a bum hamstring, he tough, he plays through injuries to his ankle and calf and you never hear him complain about not getting the ball enough...rework his deal and keep him and Lamb together for as long as possible, they're a dynamic duo!

Amari is actually 27 years old, always dealing with injuries and actually was single covered all game long vs the Vikings just like he has vs other teams this year.

remember when the talking heads said he disappeared on the road? I havent heard that at all this year lol

Thats a couple of big games on the road now when we needed him! I love this guy

 

[RoboQB]

The anti-diva WR.
Another player worth every penny.

I didn't check, but that may have been Cooper's
best away game as a Cowboy, statistically.

 

[glimmerman]

He played a great game. He is tough.

At least he played, Dak didn't even bother......lol

Amari has only had 2 games so far this year (out of 7 games) where he has gone to catch for 100+ yards and over 5 receptions in each game. He's gone for 4 games with only 3 catches in each and 1 game with only 5 catches, all 5 games not even reaching 70 yards per game in receiving yards. 2 of those games were actually away games (@ Chargers & @ Patriots) to answer your question.

So he's shown up in 2 out of 7 games. Nice way to use those $20+ million/year.
