Lattimore on Funchess, Williams on Olsen, Te'o spies Newton, Robertson spies McCaffrey /Stewart and put the rest (DBs) on who you want. I am a simple man.

Olsen may be able to use his size to keep Williams away from the ball on the underneath stuff. Like a power forward boxes out for rebounds.

Re: Thoughts
 

I really don't think Olsen is fully recovered from the leg injury. He only had one catch on nine targets last week facing the Falcons.

Re: Thoughts
 

Falcons have much better LBs than we do.

Re: Thoughts
 

As Guido stated, Olsen is still injured and it was pretty obvious last week.

To avoid big runs on 3rd down from Fig Newton, I'd take a page out of Wade Phillips playbook & use single coverage on their WR's & flank Teo/Robertson outside the offensive line.

Their passing "attack" doesn't scare me. Especially with Latt & Crawley playing well on those boundaries.

Unless we get a flag-happy ref crew.

Re: Thoughts
 

It appears we will get the Tony Corrente crew in the dome.

Re: Thoughts
 

Which is strange, because he absolutely blew up 2 weeks earlier against Green Bay

Re: Thoughts
 

In the nickel/dime, you could almost afford to put Crawley on him and have PJ cover the #2 WR (insert name here)

Re: Thoughts
 

He may have aggravated it the following week against Tampa Bay. He only had 3 catches in 6 targets for 27 yards in that game. That means he has had 4 catches for 37 yards on 15 targets over the past two games. That doesn't sound too scary to me.

Re: Thoughts
 

Which according to another thread, we will. The crew we got has thrown the most flags on defensive pi and holding.

Re: Thoughts
 

Olsen worries me. He is there X factor absent from the first 2 games. Ours is Lattimore.

Re: Thoughts
 

Make sure not to let Cam get outside for big gains and get the teams mojo going. Instead we'll make him run inside and take the hits which he doesn't like and nail him when he tucks the ball to run. He isn't a good pocket passer and our corners can cover. If we stop the running game and spy McCaffrey then we should be going deeper in the playoffs.

Re: Thoughts
 

That has decoy written all over it.

Re: Thoughts
 

Olsen can kill you with those hard to defend third down catches.
