The play of the game was the first INT

[HungryLion]

He hd to twist his entire body while moving full speed in the other direction just to get his hands on it. Seriously, the lengths you people go to defend Dak's inaccuracy issues are incredible

Lol dude that is an easy catch for nfl WR’s to make.

 

[Brooksey]

Cooper played a great game..any receiver in the league could have dropped that pass, pass was behind him. Bad Pass still could have been caught but it wasn't. We need to overcome that not go down 31-3

Lol dude, that is an easy throw for nfl QB's to make

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

he hit him in hands

and next sereis when he hit him in stride and Copper fell is that on Dak as well

I didn't think he hit him in stride. I think Cooper had to break his stride to catch that. I mean, on the one hand, we fault Cooper for not being able to bring in a ball that was high and behind him and then we call him out for adjusting to a throw that was a little under thrown and call him out? Some days, you can't win.

Cooper catches that and we’re up 7-0 in a blink and it’s a completely different game.

instead it bounces off his hands and here we are.

If DaK hits him in stride it's a TD, if he just hits him in the chest it's a huge game, throwing it slightly behind him causes what happened. Do i think Copper should have caught it? probably, but when you make any reciever reach back for the ball those things can happen. Bottom line is Cooper was wide open and Dak missed the throw

That's a really tough pass. It's humming and you are going the other way and you are reaching back. That's tough.

 

[nightrain]

Yup. Big passing and receiving yardage stats worthless.

 

[MarcusRock]

The throw was BEHIND him as has been the case all year long. How many feet off was this throw? It's a pattern. This one cost us 7 and the Packers scored to complete the 14-point swing.

 

[cheyennes]

was the first field goal we missed, last drive we needed only 7

 

[MarcusRock]

Here is the overhead view. Cooper makes his cut and is almost running parallel to the lines and gets a ball he then needs to contort himself in the opposite direction to make a play on. Even if you say Cooper still should have caught it (I don't because I know physics) this is mostly on the QB for missing a hugh jass window. You cannot have that happen when you're unharassed.

 

[cowboys1981]

The pass was behind Cooper enough to where he had to turn his body while going full speed the opposite direction. Dak made a bad throw. Also on the 3 & 5 just before the half, Dak had a wide open receiver going across the middle and he forces an incomplete pass.

 

[ryanbabs]

I guess. But shouldn't a team be able to overcome a little 1st quarter adversity?

Nope, because we never get turnovers. We’re a giving team and take nothing.

 

[JJHLH1]

I agree the Cooper drop/interception was huge. He got two hands on it therefore he should have caught it.

But the 3rd INT was a back breaker. That made it a 2 score game with not much time left. Garrett wasted a challenge early so he was out of them, otherwise he could have challenged pass interference on Gallup and very likely won (even the official on the broadcast thought so).

Yep, completely set the tone, changed momentum, and was mostly due to a lazy effort by Cooper.

And they couldn't overcome it.

This team is so mentally weak it's pathetic.

 

[CF74]

We lost momentum and chased it the rest of the game.

NFL receivers should never drop a pass that touches both palms. The ball wasnt two feet high or at his feet and he just got fingertips on the ball, it hit him right between both hands.

He made harder catches in this very game.

Good WR's catch balls that aren't perfectly thrown all the time.

If the only time you catch a ball is because it is thrown perfectly, you're not a very good WR.

 

[aikemirv]

Lol dude that is an easy catch for nfl WR’s to make.

And yet it was a bad pass

Plus, had Cooper not started stumbling on his own during that out-n-up where Dak hit him in stride deep, that would have been another easy TD. Instead, Cooper stumbled on his own. Those were 14 points Cooper cost the team, thus allowing Green Bay to consistently run up our D's gut and take a huge 17 point lead.
