We have to attack teams in the middle of the field on short underneath routes. This will eventually pull the safeties out of cover 2.
This is where Dane excels (along with Gresham, and Hawkins).
Only problem I see is how quickly can Andy and Dane get on the same page on routes and timing.

So they are going to take a player off the streets and put him in after 4 days and bench whalen who has been there since OTA's?

Thats absurd

Not gonna lie, your boy Whalen impressed me a lot this Sunday. He seriously seems like a good matchup against the Steelers for sure. Mainly saying that because of how well he played them twice.

Also, I don't know who designs our plays, but that ball was only intercepted because Hawkins ran a route that brought him within 5 yards of Whalen. Of course, that meant he brought two defenders along with him.

Good call Shady. I thought one of them ran the wrong route

I think that people think that just because you sign a WR, it means that you start them suddenly. I don't see Sanzenbacher getting any playing time this year unless he is a VERY fast learned and impresses during practice. But even then, it's a long shot.

Punt/Kick returns or due to injury, tops. We'll have to wait and see how he does in training camp next year before he ever lines up offensively.
