The quiet confidence of Amari Cooper

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The play started, as so many inconceivable ones do, with a bad throw.
Amid the snow and difficult conditions, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen threw a quick pass from a "sticky hand" to his left to wide receiver Amari Cooper.
Cooper had San Francisco 49ers cornerback Renardo Green next to him ready to make a tackle, with safety Malik Mustapha and linebacker Fred Warner soon joining. Before going to the ground, Cooper saw Allen run behind him -- the quarterback chasing the ball down just in case -- so he lateralled the ball to him.
"Amari Cooper to Josh Allen for the TD!" is a new one \ud83d\ude02
