Offensive player of the year, Triple Crown, Super Bowl MVP, the single greatest wide receiver season ever, and it belongs to Cooper Cup.

0:11.4

The L.A. Rams capped off an impressive season filled with big trades and free agency signings with a Super Bowl win at home.

0:18.8

And yet, the biggest storyline other than, of course, well, the Super Bowl, wasn't

0:23.6

Aaron Donald, wasn't O'Dell Beckham, Vaughn Miller, or even Matthew Stafford, who was probably

0:27.6

their biggest acquisition this off-season, it was Cooper Cups' remarkable season.

0:32.6

And whether you're a fantasy owner, a casual fan, or an NFL analyst, this season clearly stands out as one of,

0:39.3

if not, the single greatest receiving season in NFL history.

0:43.3

I mean, we're talking 145 receptions, over 1,900 yards, 16 touchdowns.

0:48.3

These are accomplishments we only have seen a handful of times by some of the best receivers in NFL history guys like

0:54.5

Jerry Rice, Randy Moss, Calvin Johnson, Megatron, right? And even those guys, most of the time,

1:00.9

when you see a receiving season of that caliber, you're also not seeing that same guy post

1:05.6

a top 10 catch percentage in the league like Cooper Cup did. 75% catch percentage, 145 receptions, that's absurd.

And as much as I would love to just ramble about Cooper Cup's stats all day, I really

1:17.6

can't because his advanced analytics really aren't even that good.

1:21.6

They're pretty average.

1:22.6

I wouldn't say they're bad.

1:23.9

But when you look at like NFL next gen stats, he doesn't like get pressed all the time, doesn't get a billion yards of separation, he doesn't have like the most air yards or whatever. He just wins a lot. And I know that's weird to say about receivers. We often hear that terminology used with quarterbacks, but he really does just win, and he wins most of his reps.

1:44.9

So if you want to understand the context behind Cooper Cup's ludicrous stats, you can't look

1:48.7

in the advanced analytics, you have to look on film.

1:52.0

You have to watch him play to understand him.

1:54.4

And I'm going to do my best job defending Cooper Cup because he was labeled as a lot of things

1:59.4

this year, other than being just a great
