Appreciate the kind words. I don't think Rex expects Gilmore to shut down Green completely--more like he anticipates he'll hold him in check relative to what other teams have done.
I also don't think they'll single up Eifert--I expect bracket-style coverage with a LB taking the short zone and a safety over the top.
As to how the QBs will respond, if Taylor does indeed play, I expect lots of roll-outs, moving pockets, etc. to keep him on the move. When NE and Miami played lots of coverage against him, this was how Roman responded.
If Rex plays like that, then he will get murdered by MLJ again. I am not the biggest Rex fan, but he doesn't seem like the guy to make the same mistake twice (on the field).
He relies on the blitz and likes to leave his DBs playing man. With the way Dalton plays and him having trust in his pass catchers, this will play to our strengths.
If there are a lot of roll outs, that will also play to our strengths. This was asked before, but who do you think is a better QB on the run?
Wilson or Taylor?
Yes, we can lose this game. However we don't seem to be the same team in the past that would lose this game. Even if we did lose the game, I like our chances of rebounding.
