Garcon going to blow up week 16? (1 Viewer)

With Collie gone and scrabble following Wayne, will Garcon be the guy that wins championships? How have WR2's fared this year against the Oakland secondary?

 
I was thinking Nnamdi usually played LCB, meaning he should cover Garcon all day. Correct me if I'm wrong here?

EDIT: Nnamdi plays exclusively on defensive RCB, so he'll line up with Wayne.

Alphabet soup i thought played on the left side? Doesnt wayne normally line up left? I was considering britt for wayne because of this matchup....

 
Has anyone been able to determine the coverage in this game? When I look at the depth charts for both teams it looks like Nnamdi plays LCB which I believe puts him on Garcon? I'm hoping for the opposite since I have Garcon. :unsure:

 
The last time Indy and Oakland played Gonzalez led the Colts receivers in yards, catches, and TDs. I would not be shocked if the situation was similar with Garcon/Wayne on Sunday. I see a lot of upside for Garcon because of his big play ability and Oakland's tendency to ask their DBs to cover man to man deep with no help.

this would make blair white the play. gonzo plays the slot. also tamme will also be in a postion for a big game if what you say is true.

Gonzo was in the slot in 2007? If so, who was the WR2 opposite Wayne? Marvin was gone by that point in the season. I can't even think of who else the Colts who would have been opposite Wayne at that point.

oh 2007 LOL. cmon, we're not gonna use a 3 year old game is an indicator of this game.
 
Nnamdi will be in his normal spot, which will put him on Wayne the entire game.
i'm pretty sure Garcon lines up on the right which would put him on Nnamdi.
Garcon does line up on the right, but Nnamdi covers the WR lined up left side of the offense.http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-fantasy/0900...line-26-yd-pass
thanks for the vid. i thought Nnamdi lines up on the left? Thats how he is listed on the depth chart.

Yeah I don't know why but the depth chart is wrong.

Well is was 3 years ago, but it was still Manning/Wayne/#2 Indy WR (at the time Gonzalez, now Garcon) vs Nnamdi/Routt starting at CB for Oakland and that is how it played out.
 
When Collie was out previously this year, Wayne lined up in the slot quite often. I don't recall White's availability at all those times, and Garcon wasn't playing as well then, but the Colts did make a concerted effort to move Wayne around a lot more than usual when Collie was out. I think there's a good chance they will go back to that in this game.

Still, I'd probably rank the Colts receivers, like so:

Garcon

.

Tamme

Wayne

.

.

.

White

 
Anyone else starting Garcon in kight of the Raiders #5 pass D and the possibility of Namdi covering him?

Does this break down into a favorable game for Garcon or will the Raiders have the ball all day running it on the Colts?
