It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I have watched Indy's 2 playoff games and he is the key to their 3rd down offense. We must give the same priority to stopping him that we gave to limiting Antonio Gates. Any thoughts who will be assigned to do this?

Sanders + Samuel on Harrison
Hawkins + Hobbs on Wayne
Vrabel/Bruschi on Clark
Colvin on the Slot
TBC on the pass rush
There's your formula.

Clark pretty much is the slot receiver. This isn't the 2003 Colts when they had Clark and also had Stokely with 1,000 yards + Harrison/Wayne.Sanders + Samuel on Harrison

Harrison prefers the inside routes, crossings in the seams and slants.
Wayne, for whatever reason, ALWAYS seems to get open on quick out routes in the 8-15 yard range, primarily to the left. He always appears to be totally uncovered. He worries me more than Harrison.
If Hobbs is on Wayne, he can not give him that 10 plus yard cushion he usually gives other receivers....Wayne will eat him alive. Wayne needs to be hit, and slowed down, within that 5 yard area.

i don't think Dallas Clark is that big of a problem
the key to stopping him is to have a repeat of the 2003 game in Indy with the goal line stand.
I think you are right. The Colts really struggled down the stretch when Dallas got hurt. They had no slot threat with Stockley being gone for the year. Since Dallas came back it has kept teams from being able to cheat on coverage.
That's classy.
How do we know if Hobbs, for example, is 10 yards off the line?
It can be done with a little adjustment, perhaps a linebacker with a last moment stunt to the outside,hits the WR, and he releases quick enough to allow Hobbs, or the corner, to assume cover.....
Why not?
Eric Parker is no Marvin Harrison. Samuel will need help. Many of his interceptions have come with safety help over top, allowing him to jump the throwing lane inside.Beat the hell out of Dallas Clark at the line of scrimmage with Chad Scott making it hard for him to get out in his route.
With the way Samuel is playing I think he can shut down his half of the field the way he did against the Chargers.
Then use Hobbs and Sanders to double the other side of the field.
