1) Have a WR who can run very fast and catch well. They won't be able to cover him the whole game. Steve Smith. Joey Galloway.
2) Have a DE who can rush the passer very well. They won't be able to block him the whole game. John Abraham. Simeon Rice.
3) Double-cover Randy McMichael -- he disappears when you do that.
4) Cover the short pass routes and give up the long ones -- they won't hit the long ones consistently.
5) Defend the running game and the short passing game overall -- the long passing game isn't there for them.
If I'm an NFL team, this is how I'm gameplanning for us, which means we need:
1) a CB
2) a LT
3) a true #1 WR (can't double McMike with a true #1 on the field)
4) a QB
5) numbers 3 and 4
Gonna be a while fellas. Those are all tough positions to fill.
