I understand that point. That’s why I want to see how the more physical Nickel/Safety lines up against Wilson; now you have two CB’s available for Coleman and the slot WR.

However, House knows defensive strategy and our roster much better than I ever will, so I trust that he’ll have us in a great position however we’re lined up.

Yep. We did fine with him last year so I don’t think he will be that big of a problem.

Game will be decided on whether we can get pressure on the QB

No. Not at all. What I am saying that the focus on that by the media is misleading.
By the way, average height of NFL receivers is 6’1.8”. There is something to say about getting in and out of cuts and burst is more important than height overall. In the red zone that is different but last year he did not dominate in that area either.
They focused on this one receiver and only that aspect as if it would be the determining factor.

Last year, he only had 3 receptions. We will be alright

While OPs take is dumb, a 6’7 receiver is always a matchup issue. Wilson is a little overrated, he has 1100 yards and 6 TDs in three years

Jerry rice ran a 4.71. 40 yard dash isn’t the end all be all neither.

That was the point of the segment. They were discussing key factors in the game. They think he will give the LSU secondary trouble, especially in the red zone. Anyone who acts like that is an unreasonable take is stupid.

Speed doesn't matter if you're 6'7" just send him out 10 yards and throw high.

If that’s all you have to do you would have thought they would have done it more last year.

He would be probably 4rth or 5th best on our roster!

I agree. Stephen Sullivan was 6’6 and he didn’t do a whole lot. Height is still an advantage at WR though.

Can't go by what Gameday says. But their receivers are good. Coleman transferring to them is big.

they are analysts. they have to talk about something. if you are going to get upset watching analysts talk about games their employer is paying them to generate publicity for, you might want to change your viewing habits.

you will lose your mind by week 8.

ESPN stated that IF he was playing in the NFL now he would be the 2nd tallest WR to ever play and then named 6-8 guy that I’ve never heard of. So, I thought height is clearly not the end all be all of this other guy would at least have some name recognition.

Shouldn’t he have dominated the league for at least a year?
