3 wr setup seems to be the best way to counter Glenn's loss.

Teams will double TO and scheme against him. We can move him to the slot and place Crayton outside.

Austin can run the speed routes and try to stretch the defense. He looked good against the Texans and I think he could contribute with single coverage.

Our line is good enough in the interior to run this alignment. IMO

I think we will probably have to do this a lot more than we usually would have, and plus Fasano will have to play a huge role for us. I think we do a lot of 3 Wr sets and also run the ball quite a bit and try to hit Owens with the deep ball a lot.

I was just looking at last year's game when Crayton had to start in place of Glenn (at Arizona in Week 10), and that was the formation we used on Crayton's 30-yard TD catch. Owens was in the slot right, Crayton was wide left and beat the cornerback deep. Crayton had four catches for 90 yards and a TD in the first half.
