Cooper sucks

[MMXcalibur]

Go Cooper!!!!

(because I have to)

[Mr. Laz]

As long as it wasn't serious enough for someone to get hurt ...


it's all good, want some spirit in camp

[thabear04]

At least we dont have Thomas Jones no more.

[Deberg_1990]

Maclin is just fighting hard to save his job

[O.city]

Getting tired of hitting each other at this point I'd imagine

[Stargazer]

Maclin is just fighting hard to save his job

That would be Cooper...

[Kiimo]

When I read this I thought Marcus Cooper was Marcus Peters and I was going to get worried but nah this is a nothing story with Cooper.

[TigeRRUppeRRcut]

Cooper is toast. Trade him after he has 1 good game this season, please.

[Bambi]

Not a good sign.

[BigMeatballDave]

Not a good sign.:spock: These happen in just about every camp, every year.

[Kiimo]

Cooper is toast. Trade him after he has 1 good game this season, please.

I'm curious why you think he's toast. Or why we need to trade him.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Great sign. Chiefs need more fight.

[Gonzo]

Maclin looked awesome today. He made one amazing fucking catch where it was a little out of reach, he got a hand on it and bobbled it around then he hit the ground and pulled it in. Awesome concentration.

This fight wasn't a huge ordeal but the whole team seemed a bit twitchy today...

Oh and Berry looked fantastic. He is in great shape. It won't be long for him at all.

Sounding good!

I think the Chiefs consider Cooper more of a special teamer now.

He's a decent gunner etc.

[Mr. Inmem]

I hope Maclin stays healthy. We have been feeding him the ball quite a bit. That scuffle is probably a good thing. We need some aggressive guys on this team. I've always like Steve Smiths attitude.

[R8RFAN]

So who would you rather have Maclin or Cooper? Amari Cooper that is

[mdchiefsfan]

Maclin. He is proven in the league, and that is what Smith needs to play his best: trust. This isn't taking anything away from Cooper's potential, but I just think Maclin is more valuable to the Chiefs.

[Mr. Inmem]

That's a tough question. I think I'd take Cooper only because Maclin's health issues worry me some. I know Cooper hasn't played and could be injury prone, but right now I'd go Cooper. It's a very close decision though.

With the Chiefs being at the stage they are currently, we needed someone to come in and be useful day one. By bringing in Maclin there is no major adjustment or time needed to acclimate to the playbook.

Plus I love the Peters pick, so I would keep Maclin and Peters over Cooper.

[Mav]

That's the type of throws Alex has to make consistently.

[Eleazar]

Cooper is a scrub who is worried about his job.

[BWillie]

Cooper is a scrub who is worried about his job.

He was good for like two and a half games.

[MotherfuckerJones]

Considering how we got him it's not the end of the world.

[RobBlake]

glad my niners got rid of him.

[RobBlake]

i feel like that would have been picked off against a top corner. I'm glad alex had the balls to make that throw but i feel like that was very telegraphed.. and thats just from a quick glance of tape

[wazu]

Love that fire! Sure, Maclin is now out with a neck injury, but I love the FIRE!

[Mr. Inmem]

glad my niners got rid of him.

And the whole team left with him lol

Reilly Cooper wants to fight Maclin next.

Jeremy Maclin misses Chiefs practice because of neck strain
52m
Adam Teicher, ESPN Staff Writer

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. -- Wide receiver Jeremy Maclin didn’t practice with theKansas City Chiefs on Monday because of what the team called a neck strain.

Maclin did attend the practice session at Missouri Western State University, but spent most of the time riding an exercise bicycle in the medical tent off to the side. Coach Andy Reid said X-rays were negative, but wasn’t certain when Maclin would return to practice.

"We’ve just got to get the spasm out of it," Reid said.

Maclin was involved in a practice scuffle with teammate Marcus Cooper on Sunday. They traded punches before they were separated by teammates.

"It was just in a drill yesterday," Reid said when asked how Maclin was injured. "He got tackled. I’m not exactly sure which play it happened on. He woke up this morning with a stiff neck and so we wanted to make sure it wasn’t anything structural. It wasn’t."

[Brock]

glad my niners got rid of him.

Fuck your niners.

Fuck you.

[-King-]

glad my niners got rid of him.

The way the 49ers off season has gone, he could probably come in and be the best defensive player on the team.

As you all know, I was there yesterday and I'm going to parrot my last post with a little more insight.

Maclin is a fing stud. We couldn't ask for a better WR in this system IMHO. I know he's not the biggest target but from what I've seen, he's just clutch.
I saw him out there with constant hustle. You don't get that all the time from guys that scored their contracts. He was running like a sonbitch everywhere. To the sideline, to the huddle, to the waterboy, fuck it. He's going to be awesome for us.

Berry: He was out there rocking it. He played without hesitation and it won't be long for him at all. That dude is just the fucking man. He'll be starting by the first game if not earlier.

Another addition...
Johnson is back. I saw him hauling ass as well and he looked fast as hell. He was in every tackle and was controlling that defense just like he used to. For the first time in a long time I'm finally optomistic. I just had to see it with my own eyes.

12-4 this year boys and girls. Mark it down.
A .500 start then shit comes together.

@ Houston

Denver

@ Green Bay

@ Cincinnati

Where do you see wins here?

[Hammock Parties]

Marcus Pooper needs cut before he injures the only hope we have of fielding an above average offense this year.

[ThaVirus]

Maclin strained his neck today. They had it X-Rayed.

[ThaVirus]

Also, some semi-relevant 'around the league' info: Cam Newton was involved in a fight with CB Josh Norman after her intercepted one of Cam's passes.

[Gonzo]

@ Houston

Denver

@ Green Bay

Houston and Natti.

I think they beat Denver

[ThaVirus]

I think they beat Denver

Just 1 win out of the 4?

Or you think they beat Houston, Denver and Cinci for a 3-1 start? That would be magnificent.

[ThaVirus]

Houston and Natti.

Sounds sensible..

You don't think losing to Denver at home is a sign that we're still not over the hump?

[Hootie]

So who would you rather have Maclin or Cooper? Amari Cooper that is
Honestly, Maclin if I'm a chiefs fan, and Cooper if I'm a raiders fan ...

[Mav]

Just 1 win out of the 4?

Or you think they beat Houston, Denver and Cinci for a 3-1 start? That would be magnificent.


I think realistically they beat Cincinnati and Denver.

I think realistically they beat Cincinnati and Denver.

Ooh. A loss to Houston, eh?

Why so?

On the road. Jj watt is a man child. I don't like Stephenson vs watt.

[-King-]

On the road. Jj watt is a man child. I don't like Stephenson vs watt.

1 player....on defense is going to beat us?

As great as Watt is, we're not going to lose because of him. They're still trotting out Hoyer and a backup RB out there. Other than Watt, they don't have anywhere near the talent of the Chiefs. Nowhere close.

Yeah......... That makes sense. I hadn't really thought that much. So I guess 3-1?

[ThaVirus]

I feel pretty good going up against their offense. Hoyer and Alfred Blue don't scare anyone and I don't even know who their TE is.

Limit Hopkins and Strong and what can they do?

I'm guessing this'll be a low scoring affair similar to the last time we played them. Something like 17-14.

[ThaVirus]

I'll be fucking pissed if we let Watt score a TD.

[Gonzo]

Sounds sensible..

You don't think losing to Denver at home is a sign that we're still not over the hump?

I think Denver will start hot and KC will need a few games to get going. After that they'll tear ass. 12-4 (give or take one) this year is totally legit.

[InChiefsHeaven]

I just hate that 4 days after Houston we get the Donks...but if you wanna be considered legit, you win at home, regardless of the opponent.

[Chiefnj2]

I think Denver will start hot and KC will need a few games to get going. After that they'll tear ass. 12-4 (give or take one) this year is totally legit.

Why do you think they will finish strong when they went 2-4 to end last year?

[Mav]

Why do you think they will finish strong when they went 2-4 to end last year?


Because this isn't the same team?

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

All I'm hearing is that Alex can now safely "trust his receivers".

I'm guessing that in the course of the season, that is going to mean, "I can trust you to block for JC as I shit my pants and check to the east/west per standard operating procedure".

[MotherfuckerJones]

I'll be ****ing pissed if we let Watt score a TD.

I have nightmare visions of Alex throwing it right to him

[Reerun_KC]

Why do you think they will finish strong when they went 2-4 to end last year?

And 2-5 the year before....

After Nov 15th... Big Andy's squad posts a stunning 4-10 record the last 2 years...

[Reerun_KC]

Because this isn't the same team?

Your right, its a 2 year trend regardless of the "team"...

[Mav]

Your right, its a 2 year trend regardless of the "team"...


Well not exactly what I meant but alright lol

[Reerun_KC]

Well not exactly what I meant but alright lol:thumb:

If it didn't happen back to back years, I could get on board with it being a team issue... (players, coaches, etc...) But seeing Andy roll out back to back season ending stretches of ass... I cant get on it as being a team issue more over being a Big Andy issue.

Well last year for me was the loss of Dj devito and especially berry. Maybe that's hope?

As a lifelong Chiefs fan.... All I can ask for is "hope"...:p

[Missouri49]

Houston also has questions. At the quarterback position

[TigeRRUppeRRcut]

I'm more curious as to why he thinks Cooper will have a good game

Praying he has a good game like I did for Chase in week 17 last year. Wishful thinking so we can exchange for assets.

Yep. Watt can't chase Jamaal Charles, Smith, and DAT in the same play.

Thanks for posting your observations from practice. Maclin and Avant are going to be stellar examples for the receivers and I don't think Wilson is far from being a productive #2. The Dwayne Bowe nostalgia on this board may end very quickly.

[TigeRRUppeRRcut]

Maclin looked awesome today. He made one amazing ****ing catch where it was a little out of reach, he got a hand on it and bobbled it around then he hit the ground and pulled it in. Awesome concentration.

Oh and Berry looked fantastic. He is in great shape. It won't be long for him at all.

I sure hope he can play starter minutes at some point. I've treated patients post-chemo and they just are never the same. Granted he had a treatable form of hodgkins, without knowing what meds he was taking and the duration of chemo it's hard to say what his stamina/durability will be like going forward. I've seen patients recover very well but show complications down the road from taking drugs like bleomycin that can destroy lung tissue.

Hoping the best for him and that the worst is in the past
