No. This week it will be Mike Wallace's ex-con older brother who will be in the stands. Just got out of prison I understand.
All kidding aside....
I have never been a Carroll fan but I think he has performed very well in replacement of Patterson. Don't forget about the int at Cleveland. it was the first of the season for Miami. I don't think we have allowed a TD to a WR thru 3 games and we have faced some good ones. We have only given up 4 TD's total through the air.
Week 1 to Jordan Cameron, TE
Week 2 Coby Fleener, TE
Week 3 Levine Toilolo, TE & Jason Snelling, RB
One think I've learned about the NFL is that the only thing that stays the same is, everything changes. Expect the unexpected.
Just when you think you have an idea how the game will play out, the opposite happens. I thought for sure after the first game that we were going to sack A.Luck 6 or 7 times...same vs Atlanta with backup tackles but it didn't happen as expected. We found another way to win.
I feel your concern about the TE coverage but this may be the week we win by shutting down the TE and a big game from our RB's.
I am not holding my breath about the TE's (and RB's) but you know we will be doubling Graham all night. Maybe we get a turnover on a ball thrown to him????
So double coverage on Graham and Grimes on Colston. That leaves Carroll on Lance Moore and/or Kenny Stills. We may have to put a corner on Darren Sproles and that probably falls to Jimmy Wilson. That's the part that concerns me. I hope they don't try to cover him with a DL or LB!
NOLA can basically run a 5 WR set (1 actually being Sproles out of the back field).
#1 Graham
#2 Colston
#3 Moore
#4 Stills
#5 Sproles
They will also mix in Ben Watson, Robert Meachum and Nick Toon.
It's going to be a tough task. I wonder if Will Davis will see any time tonight...We need all the DB help we can get.
Can't wait to see the game plan from JP.
