4 wide

The defense can pick their poison.

Just don't come out with 2 te and let them play up.

Whoa. A rookie who has yet to record a down of actual live NFL play feels confident?

Count me in amongst the convinced.

Good, so we won't have to worry about the Giants rookie TE...Excellent!

Switzer is ready to see what he can do at the pro level. A hamstring injury kept him out of preseason action, but he is healthy and ready to go for the regular-season opener Sept. 10 vs. the New York Giants.

“I feel great. I’ve put two solid weeks of practice in, so I’ll be ready to roll Sunday night,” Switzer said. “Obviously it would’ve been nice to get some reps, but unfortunately I wasn’t able to. I’ve got to make do with what I got. They’re expecting me to be ready Sunday night and I will be mentally and physically.

If they're going to use him as the primary returner on limited preseason play--and it sounds like they are--they're unlikely to shy away from using him in packages as a receiver. They won't feature him, but they were never going to do that. They'll use him in some packages, though, and won't shy away of throwing to him if that's what the defense gives them.

Switzer will not see the field as a receiver at all. He will field punts and kickoffs until he drops one and then we will see Beasley. If the ball is in the end zone on kick offs he should just down it every time. The punts he should secure and let her rip as he did in college. I just pray he does not have first game jitters and fumble. That would be a disaster and the only way we lose this game. Cowboys roll 32-16.

No way of knowing what he does on offense. I don't expect him to be featured prominanrtly.

Don't throw towards Landon Collins and don't run towards him either. He's a monster. He's a modern day version of Darren Woodson but with a little more power and better hands. But he's only man.

And one man can be beat. But if that team had two Landon Collins we'd definately be in trouble

Don't run towards Vernon or JPP or landon Collins and we'll be fine
Sometimes the best thing to do is to throw at their strength. However, the safest route, no pun intended, is to invoke the west coast type approach and hit them with quick opening passes. I would start the game in NO HUDDLE and have a bunch of dink and dunk plays ready. Once they bite on those unleash draws and screens. Finally let a few fly for Butler and Dez deep, especially back shoulder passes to Dez which are un-coverable. And when all else fails, Run Dak Run!!!

I am quit aware of the basics of football, but thanks anyway for the RS High School version of it.

Apparently you don't if you want to hang targets on the OC. Dez will be out there more than any WR on the roster. Running routes. An option in the route tree.

What you said was moronic.
