bills in va Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 With Poz out this week, who do we have that can cover Jermichael Finley? This could be a matchup nightmare for us. Ellison? No, Davis? Hope not, Kelsay? Not a chance, Torbor? Nope. I saw where Ellison will be taking Poz's place on Sunday. Finley will eat us alive unless we game plan for him. He's too big for most DB's, too fast for LB's so what do we do? Maybe this is where Scott comes into the picture. I can see us using him to cover Finley as he's our biggest DB, at least plays the biggest as evidenced by his LB role last year. I think Scott could cover Finley underneath as long as he has safety help over the top. I really am wondering how we will account for Finley during the game, any thoughts?

Scott as you mentioned on obvious passing downs, and looking at the other options probably the best suited. I don't think whoever is covering him will get too much help from the safeties what with them probably also having to account for Driver/Jennings. Either way, I predict Finley will have a huge game, as most elite TE's usually do against us.
bowery4 Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 Ellision or Scott (with Scott being my preference). The only good thing about having the cover2 left overs would be fast size guys to put on a pass catching TE

Scott would be great as he completely shut down Antonio Gates during the Chargers game a couple years back................
