They are sitting ducks out there, same kind of play when Colston got hurt.

It might tip off the play if you lined up a fullback out there.

Ah, but if you paid attention in the Giants game ...Karney was lined up at wide reciever.

As far as the Giants are concerned right now, I think Drew could have called the plays from inside their defensive huddle and they would have worked. That bunch has been phoning in the games since October.

They could send them on routes that would take the DB's away from the play side.
