100% aware of that. My point was that it really doesn't matter how well players in street clothes know the system. The move to Cooper is because he knows it better now. He's been in the system that long, but still doesn't climb the depth chart, stay with Malone and let him learn it week to week to see if he can climb the depth chart.

Or maybe just maybe they picked up Cooper because they thought he was the better player. Malone did ok in the preseason but still only made it to a practice squad

With the heat, i would think you'd want a heavy rotation of receivers to keep them fresh for the whole game and tire the DBs out. Tate knows the sytem better than Cooper, so it makes sense.
Boomer esiason is such an idiot
If the Bengals can stop the tight end George kittle they have a good chance of winning this game
Well, we're about to see week 2 of ZT. I hope we see the good stuff from last week with improvement in the weak areas.

You're welcome. I am stuck with Pittsburgh game here in southern OHIO
The cameraman wasn't even ready for kickoff!
Absolutely dreadful start...
So is the stadium 75% 49ers fans?
That is on Andy Dalton there
Kickoff return penalty, followed by a first down sack, followed by a fumble.
3rd and 19 from the 3.
Just as they drew it up.
What a great opening drive.
shaky on that first drive. hopefully it is just some nerves
