Yesterday against the bengals, TE Chris Cooley caught 6 passes for 51 yards in route to breaking his own redskins single season receptions record for a TE with 73 total receptions this year. In 2005 Cooley set the record with 71 catches for a TE in coach Gibbs H back role.
So for all of us who were wondering how coach Zorn would use Cooley in his WCo based offense, we have our answer and i think we all will look forward to watching Coooooollllleeyyy adding to his record with 2 games left.
some stats:
Year Games Rec Yds Lng TD
2004 16 37 314 31 6
2005 16 71 774 32 7
2006 16 57 734 66 6
2007 16 66 786 39 8
2008 14 73 764 28 1
career 78 304 3,372 28
some qoutes:
“I would be [angry] right now. Personally, if I played and got ready all offseason and in one game [was benched], it would be hard for me to say, 'Okay.' But he's handling it fine.”
“Mark's always good for something like that, ... He's serious, but we're out there having fun, too. We'll be 10 plays into a drive, and he'll say, 'All right guys, I'm just going to fumble this one, because I'm tired and we'll get off the field.' Or 'I'll just throw a pick and we'll try to score in less plays next time.'”
“A lot of big plays happened when things broke down, ... The linemen picked up their blocks and guys got open.”
“We walked off the field in Dallas and it was the greatest game ever,”
“It's just a matter of what gets called, that's as far as it goes, ... Whatever gets called is what we're going to run, and we haven't called a lot of intermediate stuff like that. That's how it's been so far.”
“What we are is a team that runs the ball hard and makes big plays. And when we don't make big plays, then we're slow.”
“We've come together and done a great job as a team. We're really playing as a team. We're a bunch of friends and family, and I think that's helping us. It's a big reason why we're winning games.”
“[A year ago, the Redskins were 3-5 and trying to unearth a modicum of offensive success, lacking a deep game all season long. As they were then, they are competitive in virtually every game but have found a way to win close games in Gibbs's second year back.] It's a huge difference, ... It's a completely different attitude. Last year I think we were all down and we didn't want to be around here too much.”
