On Wednesday Andy & Randy were joined by Atlanta Falcons Radio Network Anlayst Dave Archer as the three guys previewed this Sunday’s game between the Falcons and the Chicago Bears at 1pm. Archer talked to Andy & Randy about Justin Fields, Marcus Mariota, matchups and more but the conversation started with the question outside of Fields, who does the Falcons defense need to key in on when it comes to the Bears offense.
“Well I think a complimentary piece to him (Fields) will be David Montgomery…Montgomery is a multifaceted dude. Guy can catch it out of the backfield, he can run it with the best of them. I think he reminds me a lot of Tyler Allgeier. He’s got more juice than you think he does when he gets to the perimeter. He can turn it up, he’s got some speed but he’ll run with some power too like we have seen Allgeier do,” Archer replied.
“It’s a two-headed run game…when you start thinking about Justin (Fields) coming out of the backside of a bootleg fake or a zone read play where he gets to the perimeter. If you watched the Detroit (Lions) game the first play out of the box they ran zone read and Justin Fields rips off a 25 yard run because he fakes to David Montgomery, end crashes, and he bounces it to the outside and the next thing you know they are out at midfield because he (Fields) just ripped off a 25 yard run on the first play. That’s the number 1 issue there when you start talking about the secondary piece to what they do run game wise,” Archer added.
