Browns' Amari Cooper Joins Rich Eisen Show And Thinks "Why Not Us?"

Amari Cooper joined the Rich Eisen radio show and talked about the Browns season. Eisen wouldn't let him leave without placing a small wager
In this story:

Rich Eisen caught Browns' fever this week. This Cleveland Browns team was the topic of his conversation throughout the week. Whether it was discussing Joe Flacco's play, or making a bid for Kevin Stefanski's Coach of The Year, it was the Browns.

On Friday, Eisen was joined by Browns receiver Amari Cooper and the interview is a much watch for Browns' fans. 

Cooper has had a resurgence this season. He truly has never "fallen off" from a production standpoint, but he has always been tough to read from an emotional standpoint. He is normally incredibly stoic, but this year, his emotions have been on his sleeve and you can really tell that he loves playing for this Browns' team.

Thats evident right away when Eisen opens the interview saying that he would have a tough time if each time he sat in his chair to do a radio show he had one of four different microphones in front of him every day.

Amari lit up with a massive smile and laugh saying, "I know what you're getting at."

Throughout the interview, Cooper delved into what it is like having four different guys at the helm. He even admitted that it hasn't always been easy, but his approach is to be his best self, no matter who is throwing him the ball. 

He also talked about what makes Joe Flacco so effective and why he has had such quick success. If you're a football nerd, like me, this is for you.

It's been Cooper's approach that has allowed him to have another great season and one that has the potential to be historic. He is 15 yards away from being the first Browns player ever to have back-to-back 1,000-yard receiving years. To do it this year of all years is spectacular.

Before letting Cooper go, Eisen asked an important question, "Why Not Cleveland?" Cooper responded perfectly. He talked about how he'd be lying if he said they hadn't talked about it but it'd be like "building the roof of the house before the base." Amari emphasized that this team is locked in at the task at hand but has the Lombardi in mind.

Cooper blossoming in Cleveland has been awesome to watch. Number 2 is a huge reason why Cleveland is on the verge of the playoffs.
