4. Jarvis Landry

Jarvis Landry should have paid close attention to what Emmanuel Sanders did to this Bengals secondary in Week 3. The Denver Broncos wideout tormented Cincy, specifically cornerback Adam Jones, en route to nine catches, 117 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

Landry can have a similar impact this week. Miami’s best receiver is a lot like Sanders in the way he’s a possession-style, savvy route-runner who also boasts deceptive vertical speed.

Landry can burn the Bengals on many of the quick screens, short crossers and deep slants Sanders ran wild on last week. Gase may need to expand the playbook for weapons like Sims, but he has no trouble getting Landry the ball. The third-year flanker has 17 catches for 255 yards over his last two games.

Landry has developed a niche on crossing routes, and Gase knows how to hide the former LSU man in bunch looks that give him an uncontested release off the line.
