Yes I think we will see CMac backing up Greer. Hopefully Greer is going to be ready but will need to be spelled and not have any more setbacks. What a pick up this guy has been. I actually look for us to send more secondary players in place of linebackers if we can stuff the run early. Not losing much with hard hitting Harper in place of a linebacker and we are going to have to keep at least one guy over the top to contain Welker and Moss. Means Vilma is going to have to be on his game to shut down the middle of the field hopefully with Harpers help. Harper has raised his game this year and is even starting to show some ball skills. Harper is fast and lays some leather which may have Welker or Moss thinking twice coming across the middle of the field. This defense is going to have to withstand the aerial assault the Pats are going to bring so I hope Payton brings some surprises.
