Should we be worried about Cooper vs Talib

[DCreppinBoysfan]

Talib has shut cooper down. Cooper hasn’t had a good game against Talib and they seen a lot of each other when he played for Denver in the 6 meetings with Denver. Cooper has averaged just 39 yards per game and only has two tds. Even when he went against Talib this year he only had one catch. Might have to get creative with the play design to get Cooper going this Saturday night. Of course, we’re a much better team and franchise them the one cooper came from but that’s still concerning that’s Talib has gotten the better of Cooper in 7 meetings

Zeke is rushing for 175 so it wont matter

Rams have to cover not just Cooper, also Gallup, Beasley, Austin (who should get more wr set looks).

Maybe a few years ago. I think Cooper will have another big game.

Yes and Dak has complete passes to them

Yes and Dak has complete passes to them

Dak needs to keep using his legs, keep the defense guessing.

Different scheme for Cooper...maybe more flexibility to shake up Talib...not concerned. Dak just needs to put the pass on Coop.

Maybe Carr isn’t what people thought he was. And the Rams won’t play us with 7 defenders to stop Zeke. I’m sure vs Oakland they didn’t need 8 for washed up Lynch

Let's keep it real. Talib is a very good CB and if he follows Cooper all night then Cooper could very well end the night with an unimpressive stat sheet.

That's fine though, because that means Talib is NOT covering Gallup or Beasley. It's up to Linehan and Dak to find the open man.

Talib is a guy that tries to get into your head..... Cooper's not gonna let that happen.....

 

[catiii]

You guys w my likes said it better than I ever could. SUPER BOWL. The space-time continuum can not be changed by anyone who plays us so fughettabout Talib. TALIB WHO>>>>??????????? <----prob what Cooper is thinking too

 

[Nav22]

I’m not worried about a thing. We’re beating the Rams and going to the NFC title game.

 

[Turkish-Cowboy]

Do you mean Talib is the guy to be burnt with the pass up the middle that will end up with 60+ yards?

I could be wrong but I dont think Talib followed Cooper in their battles. I didn't watch every game but the games I did watch I remember Talib following Crabtree and Cooper was receiving double coverage. At this point of Amari's career I dont think any CB can cover him 1 on 1.

What the coaching need to stop doing is *****footing around with Austin and stop BSing on his skillset as a WR.

Let this guy run some damn routes and catch the dern ball. Stop doing the dumb *** fake jetsweep crap and putting him on the sideline while leaving Noah brown out there who does absolutely nothing.

Coop will get heavy coverage, Beasley is dinged up, and Gallup is not as consistant now as many would like.

The personel vs the seahawks while not work against the rams. I dont care how bad the rams defense is.

We need to get Austin more involved at this rare and critical time. We are too close to a SB not to.

[DogFace]

I see a big game for Beasley. I’d think his ankle will be better than last game. Unless they hurt his other ankle?

 

[Jenky]

Why Talib and not Marcus Peters? Talib is old.

 

[BoysForLife]

Dak needs to keep using his legs, keep the defense guessing.

It is a nice luxury to have a change of pace running back that can occasionally throw an accurate pass

 

[T-RO]

Talib hasn't been anything special as a Ram. He's getting quite old in cornerback years (he'll turn 33 next in a few weeks).

He's still decent, but bark is bigger than his bite.
