You won’t be able to replicate Chase. But we CAN IMITATE Chase as best as we can by getting a fast guy that defenses will at least have to THINK about guarding. We’ve gotten used to those safeties staying deep so everything we can do to encourage those safeties to stay deep we should do.
2nd is create a whole gameplan for Tyler Boyd. He was already eating prior to Chases injury but now we kiNDA NEED him to eat so all this week I’d be focusing on Boyd. He’s proven he can be a number 1 we just need to focus on him. It’s hard to take a slot out the game.
I think it is pretty certain that Tee and Boyd will both get double teams and Hurst, Mixon/Perine/Evans, and whatever WR is on the field for Chase (should be Irwin, IMHO...we don't need Alligator Arms Thomas getting any targets). Hurst has shown he does just fine moving the chains with about 5-6 targets a game. So give him a game with 10-12 targets? Might not be big plays, but would keep the chains moving.
This is going to also put extra pressure on the defense. Lou should know by now pretty much what they will be doing on offense. Need a huge day from the defense.
