If we make a run in the post-season, we will have to play the Pats at some point.
Which of our defensive backs do you cover Gronk with?
Also, if you can think up some kind of scheme to cover him, post your ideas on that as well.
I attached a poll to this thread. My vote goes to Leon Hall. He is our most experienced corner, and has done a good job on tight ends in the past. He is undersized, but he has been able to use that to his advantage in the past--being able to cut around tight ends (like Heath Miller for example) and make plays on the ball. Of course in the red zone a perfect pass would be indefensible though.. Also, Halls weakness seems to be that he's lost a step in terms of speed and acceleration with his injuries, but that doesn't really come into play against tight ends as much as against wide-outs. He also excels at route recognition and reading quarterbacks.
Well, that's my two cents, what would you do?
