Dallas Week Matchup: Cooley vs. Witten

Dallas Week Matchup: Cooley vs. Witten | postgameheroes.com (http://www.postgameheroes.com/?p=3649)

Cooley has to be No.1 just by that picture alone. Seriously, there is no other tight end in the NFL I would rather have on our team. He is not the greatest blocker, but he has good hands and does not go down easy. He's the kind of guy, who when he catches the ball, you stand up because it may be a touchdown.

It was so annoying how Madden wouldnt shut up about Jason Witten in the dallas/philly game. He kept saying that Witten is the best TE in the league. Considering that Madden is slowly slipping into sinility, I don't buy anything he says. Cooley was drafted lower than Witten and has more touchdowns in less time.

witten had a billion yards last year (it's true, look it up - exactly 1 billion), and he's a better blocker by far.

i think cooley is a better receiver and better after the catch (breaking tackles, not outrunning guys). I wouldn't trade either, but witten's no slouch.

No slouch, but I wouldnt call him the best. A big part of his success has been because of that guy (#81 I think?) on the outside. Also I wouldnt say Witten is a better blocker by far. Cooley blocks when asked to, and has a lot of experience playing all over (H-back, tight end, wideout). Another thing, is Cooley even as a rookie had a natural ability to read defenses and find the holes in zones, which this west coast hybrid is heavily predicated upon.

Sorry guys right now Witten it's the best all around TE he's the best blocker and a superb reciever I like Cooley a lot (well actually hate because he always makes us look foolish) I think right now Cooley it's #5-#6 as TE go.

If you go by all around TE Witten is the best if you just go by receiving TE then A.Gates takes the top spot.

Thanks for your unbiased opinion. You have Witten as the best and Cooley somewhere around 6. I'm sure if someone asked you, the cowboys would have 13 guys that are the best at thier posistion. obsurd.

Yeah thats a big surprise huh? The rest of the league might as well not play. The cowgirls have the best players at every position. This s**t gets old.

Witten has a seperated shoulder from Week 2. He hasn't scored yet this year.
