Antonio Rand asks:
"How do we get Waller more involved regardless of defenses preparing for him?"
That's a great question Antonio.
The Patriots definitely made a blueprint to stop the Raiders top receiver in tight end Darren Waller Sunday. After going for 12 catches for 106 yards and a touchdown against the Saints, the Patriots held Waller to two receptions for nine yards.
Throughout the game Waller was also covered by at least seven different players which included linebackers, safeties and cornerbacks. The Patriots also did a great job of disguising coverages on Waller.
With that being said, you can't keep a good man down for long.
Derek Carr acknowledged after the game there was at least one time Waller was open and he didn't have enough time to make the play. With Henry Ruggs (hamstring) out and Bryan Edwards (ankle) missing most of the second half, Waller was definitely public enemy number one in Foxborough.
With these injuries, Carr will be looking for Waller even more looking forward. Waller has proven that he is an elite tight end in this league and Gruden and Olson will certainly game plan for Waller to be more involved against the Bills at Allegiant Stadium.
