JC went into Philly on a MNF game in week 2 last season and led us to victory. Remember that awesome TD throw to Cooley in the corner of the endzone right before halftime? And in week 10 against Philly in FedEx he was 23-34 for 215 yds and 3 TDs, with a rating of 114.2. So really he's handled Philly before. So I'm not curious if he can handle it, I'm curious to see if he can repeat his previous handling of it.
On a side note, I look for Cooley to have his first real big game of the year. Because Philly blitzes so much, TE's seem to have success against them. Randy McMichael had 86yds vs. Philly in week 1, in week 2 Jason Witten had 7 cathces for 110 yards, week 3 Heath Miller had 63 yards despite and awful offensive showing for Pitt, and last week Olsen had a nice TD catch for the Bears. And Cooley is a better player than 3 out of those 4.
