NFL: Touchdown given away: Cooper with the stupidest play of the year
Marcus Cooper Senior from the Chicago Bears has already secured the title for the stupidest play of the year in Week 3 of the 2017 NFL season: The Cornerback missed out on a safe touchdown.

At a score of 14:7 for the Bears, the Steelers scored a feasible field goal from 35 yards before the break.However, Chris Boswell’s kick was blocked and landed directly in the arms of Cooper, who sprinted to the end zone on the other side of the field and was almost impossible to catch up with.So instead of the 14:10 it would be 20:7 for Chicago.
The number 31 of the Bears was in no hurry on the last few meters and came to a complete stop in front of the Goal Line.To top it all off, he didn’t secure the ball in his arm bend any more – and so Vance McDonald from the Steelers sprinted up and knocked the ball out of his hand half a metre in front of the final zone.
Lucky for Cooper in his misfortune: Because another steeler deliberately knocked the ball out of the final zone, there was still ball possession for Chicago, which was converted into a field goal before the break.And the Bears finally won their home game after extra time with 23:17.
“I didn’t think he was so close to me and slowed down.And the guy made a great play.
Unlike Cooper.
