Dragonborn10 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 He looks like an All-Pro. How would you defend him? I think I let Lawson play him with Searcy/Leonhard/Byrd over the top. Lawson is supposed to be good in coverage and has the height to match up. If they line him up in the backfield and motion him out, I am ok with Alonso trailing him. He needs double coverage. They have no one outside that can beat Williams or McKelvin consistently. Hell even Rogers may look capable against their WR's. Anyone know how Pettine defended Gronk last year?

Floridabillsfan1 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 I hope to God he has been recognized and there is a game plan to stop him . The way we did not attend to Amendola drove me nuts . I also want to see McGahee shutdown too for obvious reasons . Go bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaattMaann Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 agree with OP - Lawson jamming him at the line hard, and then running with him - with a safety over the top on that side of the field in case he beats him out right like Tyson said "everyones got a plan until they get punched in the mouth" - hope this is the plan and that we stick with it - Manny needs to have a big night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to be doubled, but we can't forget about Gorden. They have been giving up a bunch of long balls. So we can't forget about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also want to see McGahee shutdown too for obvious reasons . Go bills The reason Amendola has not played since W1 is precisely a result of how the Bills "attended" to him. They hit the snot out of him, and he made some unbelievable catches in traffic. Cameron is one of the only two offensive "weapons" I can identify on the Browns' roster (Josh Gordon being the other). It would therefore shock me if Pettine and staff don't have a plan in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very few WRs make the sort of catches Amendola made in that game, and if you recall, Edelman caught both TDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
947 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Gordon is a near top-10 talent at WR. If we over-commit to stopping Cameron, we don't have anybody who can match up with Gordon (w/o Gilmore). Gordon will be the most talented outside WR we've faced, and look what some of the lesser guys have done to us. I'm concerned to say the least.

Pete Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 So Gordon and Cameron have been key components of my fantasy teams, as have the Bills D. Heres to hoping the Bills D pitches a shutout and has multiple turnovers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

947 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Better than Torrey Smith? No question. Torrey Smith is basically a 1-trick pony deep threat. Gordon does that just as well, and is a big bodied inside WR too. He looks to be from the same mold as Brandon Marshall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 I think you find some amazing results come Thursday night. I expect a defense similar to 1/2 Carolina and 1/2 Baltimore. A mix of NJJ could come in. We jam the line, show multiple fronts and put Lawson on the shallow routes a FS over top the middle and make the plays go outside the hashes. Alonso will be there to take anything out that crosses the middle. Big things this week on D and if Pettine doesn't deliver, I'm taking his job.

drinkTHEkoolaid Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I Picked up Cameron for my fantasy team (while waiting for gronk to return) wow that turned out well. He's having a monster year so I'm trying to follow him. He reminds me of a young antonio gates. He's Frigging good. Oh and he has some guy hoyer throwing to him..

If we pressure the QB, everything else is moot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewildrabbit Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Anyone see what the Patriots what the Patriots did in the 4th QTR to Falcons TE Tony Gonzalaz? Tony the tiger had 12 receptions for 149 yards and 2 TD's in that game Then in the 4th QTR the Patriots treated him like he was a gunner on ST, and double blocked him at the LoS to keep him from seeing the ball at all. It worked as Tony didn't do much after that. The Browns have two serious receiving threats, one in their TE Cameron and the other in WR Josh Gordon. I gotta wonder if it would be wise for the Bills to run a sort of "wide 9'' defense like the Detroit Lions utilize. It limits the effectiveness of your defense stopping the run, but is better at putting pressure on opposing QB's. Considering the Browns traded away their biggest RB threat in Richardson it might be wise to get strong rush on QB Brian Hoyer rather then worrying about the run.

C.Biscuit97 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 His nephews are going to be all pros (Matt Leinart, Blake Griffin!). It's crazy because this guy did nothing at USC. Good for him. And I love the idea of getting college wrs and fatting them up a bit to become TEs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
