Kupp is playing at the highest level right now. Stick Jab… good watch.

Anyone else cringe on a few Kupp tackles this last game? He went down hard a time or two. Made me pucker.

ikr. But don't forget - Kupp is one of our biggest WRs at 6'2 - the only bigger WR we have is Skowronek(sp?).
Look at him. Then go look at Atwell. He can take some hits & deliver em too.

Yeah I was a little concerned on the one where his leg went flying awkwardly. He seem to be getting things back in place as he got off the ground headed back to the huddle.

When I see him and listen to his responses it makes me wonder why anyone would not follow the same kind of work ethic.

We are fortunate to have several guys who are right up there as best in the world at what they do.

Atwell after getting hit by a DB after catching a pass

Definitely and it felt the Cards were being intentionally violent with him. Multiple times tearing him down way out of bounds.

Interestingly enough every time Kupp pops up and helps the tackler up.

I thought he pulled a muscle on that scissors move.

Man, having a guy like Kupp in your WR room must be a wet dream for guys like Yarber and McVay. He's a pro's pro and a route running scientist. So glad we have him.

I’m concerned that we are overusing him. His numbers are phenomenal , but we need him for the playoffs much more than winning OPOY.

Can’t blame them with the way he’s balling but m, I get your concern.

I’m still not sure what happened last year, pretty freakish. If I remember it looked like he just banged knees with the db.

If Beckham continues to make strides maybe that takes a few reps but they don’t have many choices at this point.

That was pretty cool. It really boggles the mind how athletic these guys really are.

Yeah.. I always laugh when I think of guys in my small school who thought they were good enough to play in the NFL.

Uh no.....

I was considered "fast" for my school and only managed to crack a sub 5 second 40 a few times. A 300 lb NFL lineman can run that these days.

Yeah I think the fastest 40 at my high school was 4.6 or thereabouts, and he was quite small. These guys are all definitely the cream of the crop, even the special teams types tbh. The guys making minimum were probably all-stars in every one of their high schools.

I don’t know…It seems like all the ET’s on my destroyer ran that fast when heading for the bar after work.…
