Cooper's a better player and has more left in the tank than Diggs. He's as good in all categories and is a much better contested catch receiver. Also he's just as fast as Diggs but about 20 pounds heavier. Cooper doesn't get manhandled by physical corners.
To finish your story for you, when Cooper made his Dallas debut he had 5 receptions on 8 targets for 58 yards and a TD. Today he had 4 receptions on 5 targets for 66 yards and a TD.
Pretty impressive considering he had only been with the club for 5 days.
Good guess. He actually played 35.7% of offensive snaps.
He fought the ball on the TD... reminded me of Stevie Johnson catching his first TD after the unfortunate God-blaming Tweet.
But here's the thing... Cooper has a reputation as a dependable ball catcher. In 8 seasons before 2024 he had 42 total drops... about 5 per season. This year he has 10 drops in less than half a season, but most observers point to poor quarterbacking, poorly timed and poorly placed balls in Cleveland.
I would be very surprised if drops were an issue for Cooper here.
